Psalm 83 :: King James Version (KJV)

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