Psalm 83 Arabs Against Israel

 

Psalm 83

The Arab Nations Against Israel!

A song of Asaph.

GOD do not keep silent.

Do not hold Your Peace, O GOD.

Do not be still.

“For look, Your enemies make an uproar.

Those who hate You life up their head.

They make a shrew plot against Your People, conspiring against Your treasured Ones.

‘Come’, they say, ‘let’s wipe them out as a nation!

Let Israel’s name be remembered no more!”

For with one mind they plot together.

Against You do they make a covenant.

The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites, Gebal, Ammon and Amalek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre, even Assyria has joined them, becoming a strong arm for Lot’s sons.

Selah

Do to them as You did to Midian, to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River, who perished at En-dor – they became as dung for the ground.

Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb – all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna, who said, ‘Let us take possession of the pasturelands of GOD.’

My GOD, make them like tumbleweed, like chaff before the wind.

As a fire burns a forest, and as a flame sets mountains ablaze, so pursue them with Your tempest, and terrify them with Your storm.

Cover their faces with shame, so they may seek Your Name–Adonai.

Let them be ashamed and dismayed forever.

Let them be humiliated and perish.

Let them know that You alone–Whose Name is Adonai–are El Elyon over all the earth.”
