1 A Song. A Psalm. Of Asaph.
2 \83:1\O God, do not keep quiet: let your lips be open and take no rest, O God.
3 \83:2\For see! those who make war on you are out of control; your haters are lifting up their heads.
4 \83:3\They have made wise designs against your people, talking together against those whom you keep in a secret place.
5 \83:4\They have said, Come, let us put an end to them as a nation; so that the name of Israel may go out of man's memory.
6 \83:5\For they have all come to an agreement; they are all joined together against you:
7 \83:6\The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab and the Hagarites;
8 \83:7\Gebal and Ammon and Amalek; the Philistines and the people of Tyre;
9 \83:8\Assur is joined with them; they have become the support of the children of Lot. (Selah.)
10 \83:9\Do to them what you did to the Midianites; what you did to Sisera and Jabin, at the stream of Kishon:
11 \83:10\Who came to destruction at En-dor; their bodies became dust and waste.
12 \83:11\Make their chiefs like Oreb and Zeeb; and all their rulers like Zebah and Zalmunna:
13 \83:12\Who have said, Let us take for our heritage the resting-place of God.
14 \83:13\O my God, make them like the rolling dust; like dry stems before the wind.
15 \83:14\As fire burning a wood, and as a flame causing fire on the mountains,
16 \83:15\So go after them with your strong wind, and let them be full of fear because of your storm.
17 \83:16\Let their faces be full of shame; so that they may give honour to your name, O Lord.
18 \83:17\Let them be overcome and troubled for ever; let them be put to shame and come to destruction;
19 \83:18\So that men may see that you only, whose name is Yahweh, are Most High over all the earth.
1 神啊！ 求你不要静默； 神啊！ 求你不要闭口， 也不要一言不发。
2 看哪！ 你的仇敌喧哗， 恨你的人都抬起头来。
3 他们密谋奸诈， 陷害你的子民； 他们彼此商议， 攻击你所宝贵的人。
4 他们说： "来吧！ 我们来把他们除灭， 使他们不再成国， 使以色列的名不再被人记念。"
5 他们同心商议， 彼此结盟， 要和你对抗。
6 他们就是住帐棚的以东人和以实玛利人， 摩押人和夏甲人，
7 迦巴勒、亚扪、亚玛力、非利士和推罗的居民。
8 亚述也和他们联合起来， 作了罗得子孙的帮手。（细拉）
9 求你待他们好像待米甸人， 像在基顺河待西西拉和耶宾一样；
10 他们都在隐．多珥被消灭， 成了地上的粪土。
11 求你使他们的贵族像俄立和西伊伯， 使他们的王子像西巴和撒慕拿。
12 他们曾说： "我们要得着 神的牧场作自己的产业。"
13 我的 神啊！ 求你使他们像旋风卷起的草， 像风前的碎秸。
14 火怎样焚烧树林， 火焰怎样燃烧群山，
15 求你也照样用狂风追赶他们， 借暴风雨惊吓他们。
16 耶和华啊！ 求你使他们满面羞愧， 好使他们寻求你的名。
17 愿他们永远受辱惊惶， 愿他们抱愧灭亡。
18 使他们知道只有你的名是耶和华， 唯有你是掌管全地的至高者。
