Psalms:83

* A canticle of a psalm for Asaph . * O God , who shall be like to thee ? hold not thy peace , neither be thou still , O God . * For lo , thy enemies have made a noise : and they that hate thee have lifted up the head . * They have taken a malicious counsel against thy people , and have consulted against thy saints . * They have said : Come and let us destroy them , so that they be not a nation : and let the name of Israel be remembered no more . * For they have contrived with one consent : they have made a covenant together against thee , * the tabernacles of the Edomites , and the Ismahelites : Moab , and the Agarens , * Gebal , and Ammon and Amalec : the Philistines , with the inhabitants of Tyre . * Yea , and the Assyrian also is joined with them : they are come to the aid of the sons of Lot . * Do to them as thou didst to Madian and to Sisara : as to Jabin at the brook of Cisson . * Who perished at Endor : and became as dung for the earth . * Make their princes like Oreb , and Zeb , and Zebee , and Salmana . All their princes , * who have said : Let us possess the sanctuary of God for an inheritance . * O my God , make them like a wheel ; and as stubble before the wind . * As fire which burneth the wood : and as a flame burning mountains : * So shalt thou pursue them with thy tempest : and shalt trouble them in thy wrath . * Fill their faces with shame ; and they shall seek thy name , O Lord . * Let them be ashamed and troubled for ever and ever : and let them be confounded and perish . * And let them know that the Lord is thy name : thou alone art the most High over all the earth .
