# Psalm 83 [[Ps-82|← Psalm 82]] | [[Psalm]] | [[Ps-84|Psalm 84 →]] *** ###### v1 God, don't keep silent. Don't keep silent, and don't be still, God. ###### v2 For, behold, your enemies are stirred up. Those who hate you have lifted up their heads. ###### v3 They conspire with cunning against your people. They plot against your cherished ones. ###### v4 "Come," they say, "let's destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more." ###### v5 For they have conspired together with one mind. They form an alliance against you. ###### v6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites; ###### v7 Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre; ###### v8 Assyria also is joined with them. They have helped the children of Lot. Selah. ###### v9 Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon; ###### v10 who perished at Endor, who became as dung for the earth. ###### v11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna, ###### v12 who said, "Let's take possession of God's pasture lands." ###### v13 My God, make them like tumbleweed, like chaff before the wind. ###### v14 As the fire that burns the forest, as the flame that sets the mountains on fire, ###### v15 so pursue them with your tempest, and terrify them with your storm. ###### v16 Fill their faces with confusion, that they may seek your name, Yahweh. ###### v17 Let them be disappointed and dismayed forever. Yes, let them be confounded and perish; ###### v18 that they may know that you alone, whose name is Yahweh, are the Most High over all the earth. *** [[Ps-82|← Psalm 82]] | [[Psalm]] | [[Ps-84|Psalm 84 →]]
