# Psalms 83

[1](#verse-1) God, don’t keep silent. Don’t keep silent, and don’t be still, God.

[2](#verse-2) For, behold, your enemies are stirred up. Those who hate you have lifted up their heads.

[3](#verse-3) They conspire with cunning against your people. They plot against your cherished ones.

[4](#verse-4) “Come,” they say, “let’s destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”

[5](#verse-5) For they have conspired together with one mind. They form an alliance against you.

[6](#verse-6) The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites;

[7](#verse-7) Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;

[8](#verse-8) Assyria also is joined with them. They have helped the children of Lot. Selah.

[9](#verse-9) Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon;

[10](#verse-10) who perished at Endor, who became as dung for the earth.

[11](#verse-11) Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,

[12](#verse-12) who said, “Let’s take possession of God’s pasture lands.”

[13](#verse-13) My God, make them like tumbleweed, like chaff before the wind.

[14](#verse-14) As the fire that burns the forest, as the flame that sets the mountains on fire,

[15](#verse-15) so pursue them with your tempest, and terrify them with your storm.

[16](#verse-16) Fill their faces with confusion, that they may seek your name, LORD.

[17](#verse-17) Let them be disappointed and dismayed forever. Yes, let them be confounded and perish;

[18](#verse-18) that they may know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.
