KJV : Psalms 83

verses:

1. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.

2. For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.

3. They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.

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.

5. For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:

6. The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;

7. Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;

8. Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.

9. Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:

10. Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.

11. Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:

12. Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.

13. O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.

14. As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;

15. So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.

16. Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.

17. Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:

18. That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.

verses:

1. A Song, -- A Psalm of Asaph. O God, let there be no silence to Thee, Be not silent, nor be quiet, O God.

2. For, lo, Thine enemies do roar, And those hating Thee have lifted up the head,

3. Against Thy people they take crafty counsel, And consult against Thy hidden ones.

4. They have said, `Come, And we cut them off from [being] a nation, And the name of Israel is not remembered any more.'

5. For they consulted in heart together, Against Thee a covenant they make,

6. Tents of Edom, and Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagarenes,

7. Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia with inhabitants of Tyre,

8. Asshur also is joined with them, They have been an arm to sons of Lot. Selah.

9. Do to them as [to] Midian, As [to] Sisera, as [to] Jabin, at the stream Kishon.

10. They were destroyed at Endor, They were dung for the ground!

11. Make their nobles as Oreb and as Zeeb, And as Zebah and Zalmunna all their princes,

12. Who have said, `Let us occupy for ourselves The comely places of God.'

13. O my God, make them as a rolling thing, As stubble before wind.

14. As a fire doth burn a forest, And as a flame setteth hills on fire,

15. So dost Thou pursue them with Thy whirlwind, And with Thy hurricane troublest them.

16. Fill their faces [with] shame, And they seek Thy name, O Jehovah.

17. They are ashamed and troubled for ever, Yea, they are confounded and lost.

18. And they know that Thou -- (Thy name [is] Jehovah -- by Thyself,) [Art] the Most High over all the earth!
