1 A Song * h7892 or Psalm * h4210 of Asaph * h623. Keep not thou silence * h1824, O God * h430: hold not thy peace * h2790 h8799, and be not still * h8252 h8799, O God * h410. of Asaph: or, for Asaph
2 For, lo, thine enemies * h341 h8802 make a tumult * h1993 h8799: and they that hate * h8130 h8764 thee have lifted up * h5375 h8804 the head * h7218.
3 They have taken crafty * h6191 h8686 counsel * h5475 against thy people * h5971, and consulted * h3289 h8691 against thy hidden ones * h6845 h8803.
4 They have said * h559 h8804, Come * h3212 h8798, and let us cut them off * h3582 h8686 from being a nation * h1471; that the name * h8034 of Israel * h3478 may be no more in remembrance * h2142 h8735.
5 For they have consulted * h3289 h8738 together * h3162 with one consent * h3820: they are * h3772 h8799 confederate * h1285 against thee: consent: Heb. heart
6 The tabernacles * h168 of Edom * h123, and the Ishmaelites * h3459; of Moab * h4124, and the Hagarenes * h1905;
7 Gebal * h1381, and Ammon * h5983, and Amalek * h6002; the Philistines * h6429 with the inhabitants * h3427 h8802 of Tyre * h6865;
8 Assur * h804 also is joined * h3867 h8738 with them: they have holpen * h2220 the children * h1121 of Lot * h3876. Selah * h5542. holpen: Heb. been an arm to
9 Do * h6213 h8798 unto them as unto the Midianites * h4080; as to Sisera * h5516, as to Jabin * h2985, at the brook * h5158 of Kison * h7028:
10 Which perished * h8045 h8738 at Endor * h5874: they became as dung * h1828 for the earth * h127.
11 Make * h7896 h8798 their nobles * h5081 like Oreb * h6159, and like Zeeb * h2062: yea, all their princes * h5257 as Zebah * h2078, and as Zalmunna * h6759:
12 Who said * h559 h8804, Let us take to ourselves the houses * h4999 of God * h430 in possession * h3423 h8799.
13 O my God * h430, make * h7896 h8798 them like a wheel * h1534; as the stubble * h7179 before * h6440 the wind * h7307.
14 As the fire * h784 burneth * h1197 h8799 a wood * h3293, and as the flame * h3852 setteth * h3857 the mountains * h2022 on fire * h3857 h8762;
15 So persecute * h7291 h8799 them with thy tempest * h5591, and make them afraid * h926 h8762 with thy storm * h5492.
16 Fill * h4390 h8761 their faces * h6440 with shame * h7036; that they may seek * h1245 h8762 thy name * h8034, O LORD * h3068.
17 Let them be confounded * h954 h8799 and troubled * h926 h8735 for ever * h5703; yea, let them be put to shame * h2659 h8799, and perish * h6 h8799:
18 That men may know * h3045 h8799 that thou, whose name * h8034 alone is JEHOVAH * h3068, art the most high * h5945 over all the earth * h776.
