Psalm 83 :: Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Psa 83:1A Song, -- A Psalm of Asaph. O God, let there be no silence to Thee, Be not silent, nor be quiet, O God.
Psa 83:2For, lo, Thine enemies do roar, And those hating Thee have lifted up the head,
Psa 83:3Against Thy people they take crafty counsel, And consult against Thy hidden ones.
Psa 83:4They have said, 'Come, And we cut them off from being a nation, And the name of Israel is not remembered any more.'
Psa 83:5For they consulted in heart together, Against Thee a covenant they make,
Psa 83:6Tents of Edom, and Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagarenes,
Psa 83:7Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia with inhabitants of Tyre,
Psa 83:8Asshur also is joined with them, They have been an arm to sons of Lot. Selah.
Psa 83:9Do to them as to Midian, As to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the stream Kishon.
Psa 83:10They were destroyed at Endor, They were dung for the ground!
Psa 83:11Make their nobles as Oreb and as Zeeb, And as Zebah and Zalmunna all their princes,
Psa 83:12Who have said, 'Let us occupy for ourselves The comely places of God.'
Psa 83:13O my God, make them as a rolling thing, As stubble before wind.
Psa 83:14As a fire doth burn a forest, And as a flame setteth hills on fire,
Psa 83:15So dost Thou pursue them with Thy whirlwind, And with Thy hurricane troublest them.
Psa 83:16Fill their faces with shame, And they seek Thy name, O Jehovah.
Psa 83:17They are ashamed and troubled for ever, Yea, they are confounded and lost.
Psa 83:18And they know that Thou -- (Thy name is Jehovah -- by Thyself,) Art the Most High over all the earth!
