Psalm 83 - The Scriptures 1998

¹ O Elohim, do not remain silent! Do not be speechless, And do not be still, O Ě

² For look, Your enemies make an uproar, And those hating You have lifted up their head.

³ They craftily plot against Your people, And conspire against Your treasured ones.

⁴ They have said, “Come, And let us wipe them out as a nation, And let the name of Yisra’ĕ

⁵ For they have conspired together with one heart; They have made a covenant against You –

⁶ The tents of Eḏ

⁷ Geḇ

⁸ Ashshur also has joined with them, They have helped the children of Lot. Selah.

⁹ Do to them as to Miḏ

¹⁰ Who perished at Ě

¹¹ Make their nobles like Orĕ

¹² Who have said, “Let us take possession of the pastures of Elohim For ourselves.”

¹³ O my Elohim, make them as whirling dust, As stubble before the wind!

¹⁴ As a fire consumes a forest, And as a flame sets mountains on fire,

¹⁵ So pursue them with Your whirlwind, And frighten them with Your storm.

¹⁶ Fill their faces with shame, And let them seek Your Name, O יהוה.

¹⁷ Let them be ashamed and alarmed forever; And let them become abashed and perish,

¹⁸ And let them know that You, Whose Name is יהוה, You alone are the Most High over all the earth.
