[1] Do not keep Your silence, O God; do not hold Your peace or be still, O God. [2] For, look, Your enemies make an uproar, and those who hate You have lifted up their heads. [3] They have given crafty counsel against Your people, and have consulted against Your treasured ones. [4] They have said, "Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, that the name of Israel may be no more remembered." [5] For they have conspired together; they make a covenant against You- [6] the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, even Moab and the Hagrites; [7] Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre; [8] Assyria also is joined with them, they are the strength of the descendants of Lot. Selah [9] Do to them as You did to the Midianites, as to Sisera and Jabin at the river of Kishon, [10] who perished at Endor; they became as dung for the ground. [11] Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb; yes, all their princes as Zebah and Zalmunna, [12] who said, "Let us take for ourselves the pastures of God as a possession." [13] O my God, make them like a tumbleweed, as stubble before the wind. [14] As fire burns a forest, and as the flame sets the mountains ablaze, [15] so pursue them with Your storm, and make them afraid with Your hurricane. [16] Fill their faces with shame, that they may seek your name, O LORD. [17] Let them be confounded and troubled forever; yes, let them be put to shame and perish, [18] that they may know that You, whose name alone is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.
