| 1 | A Song, a Psalm of Asaph. |
| 2 | O God, keep not Thou silence; Hold not Thy peace, and be not still, O God. |
| 3 | For, lo, Thine enemies are in an uproar; And they that hate Thee have lifted up the head. |
| 4 | They hold crafty converse against Thy people, And take counsel against Thy treasured ones. |
| 5 | They have said: 'Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; That the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.' |
| 6 | For they have consulted together with one consent; Against Thee do they make a covenant; |
| 7 | The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites; |
| 8 | Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre; |
| 9 | Assyria also is joined with them; They have been an arm to the children of Lot. Selah |
| 10 | Do Thou unto them as unto Midian; As to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook Kishon; |
| 11 | Who were destroyed at En-dor; They became as dung for the earth. |
| 12 | Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, And like Zebah and Zalmunna all their princes; |
| 13 | Who said: 'Let us take to ourselves in possession The habitations of God.' |
| 14 | O my God, make them like the whirling dust; As stubble before the wind. |
| 15 | As the fire that burneth the forest, And as the flame that setteth the mountains ablaze; |
| 16 | So pursue them with Thy tempest, And affright them with Thy storm. |
| 17 | Fill their faces with shame; That they may seek Thy name, O LORD. |
| 18 | Let them be ashamed and affrighted for ever; Yea, let them be abashed and perish; |
| 19 | That they may know that it is Thou alone whose name is the LORD, The Most High over all the earth. |
