- 1Do not keep silence, O God; do not hold your peace, and do not be still, O God.
- 2For, look, your enemies make a tumult, and those who hate you have lifted up the head.
- 3They have taken crafty counsel against your people and consulted against your hidden ones.
- 4They have said, 'Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, so that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.'
- 5For they have consulted together with one consent; they are allied against you:
- 6The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, of Moab and the Hagarenes,
- 7Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
- 8Assyria also has joined with them; they have helped the children of Lot. Selah.
- 9Do to them as to the Midianites, as to Sisera, as to Jabin at the brook of Kishon,
- 10who perished at Endor; they became as dung for the earth.
- 11Make their nobles like Oreb and like Zeeb, and all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
- 12who said, 'Let us take for ourselves the houses of God in possession.'
- 13O my God, make them like a wheel, like stubble before the wind.
- 14As fire burns a forest, and as the flame sets the mountains on fire,
- 15so pursue them with your tempest, and make them afraid with your storm.
- 16Fill their faces with shame, so that they may seek your name, O LORD.
- 17Let them be confounded and troubled forever; yes, let them be put to shame and perish,
- 18that men may know that you, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, are the Most High over all the earth.
