2 Os teus inimigos agitam-se, os que te aborrecem levantam a cabeça com arrogância.3 Com astúcia conspiram contra o teu povo, contra os teus protegidos.4 Venham, dizem, vamos riscar Israel do mapa, de forma a que mais ninguém se lembre da sua existência.5 Esta foi a decisão unânime que tomaram. E assim todos se aliaram contra ti: os de Edom, e os ismaelitas; os de Moabe e os hagarenos;os povos de Gebal, de Amom, de Amaleque e da Filisteia, e ainda os habitantes de Tiro.8 Também a Assíria fez aliança com eles, aliou-se com os descendentes de Lot .9 Faz com eles, Senhor, o que fizeste com os midianitas, ou com Sísera, e com Jabim junto ao rio de Quisom.10 E como fizeste com os teus inimigos em Endor, cujos corpos vieram a servir de estrume.15 Da mesma forma, que a tua tempestade os persiga, com vendavais e ciclones.16 Que sintam em si mesmos toda a vergonha da sua conduta reprovável,e que reconheçam o teu poder e a força do teu nome, Senhor.17 Que qualquer empreendimento deles seja sempre um fracasso; que sejam abatidos pela vergonha, que sejam, enfim, derrotados.18 Para que saibam que só tu tens o nome de Senhor, Jeová, tu, que estás acima de tudo e de todos sobre a face da Terra!

1 +2 \83:1\A song, or Psalm of Asaph. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.3 \83:2\For lo, thy enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.4 \83:3\They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.5 \83:4\They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.6 \83:5\For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee,7 \83:6\The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;8 \83:7\Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;9 \83:8\Assur also is joined with them: they have helped the children of Lot. Selah.10 \83:9\Do to them as to the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:11 \83:10\Who perished at En-dor: they became as dung for the earth.12 \83:11\Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yes, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:13 \83:12\Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.14 \83:13\O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.15 \83:14\As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;16 \83:15\So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.17 \83:16\Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.18 \83:17\Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yes, let them be put to shame, and perish:19 \83:18\That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.
