- Kapitel 83 -

Be not silent, O God

1
O God, be not silent; be not speechless;(a) be not still, O God.
2
See how Your enemies rage, how Your foes have reared their heads.
3
With cunning they scheme against Your people and conspire against those You cherish,
4
saying, “Come, let us erase them as a nation; may the name of Israel be remembered no more.”
5
For with one mind they plot together, they form an alliance against You—
6
the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, of Moab and the Hagrites,
7
of Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek, of Philistia with the people of Tyre.
8
Even Assyria has joined them, lending strength to the sons of Lot.
9
Selah Do to them as You did to Midian, as to Sisera and Jabin at the River Kishon,
10
who perished at Endor and became like dung on the ground.
11
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, and all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12
who said, “Let us possess for ourselves the pastures of God.”
13
Make them like tumbleweed, O my God, like chaff before the wind.
14
As fire consumes a forest, as a flame sets the mountains ablaze,
15
so pursue them with Your tempest, and terrify them with Your storm.
16
Cover their faces with shame, that they may seek Your name, O LORD.
17
May they be ever ashamed and terrified; may they perish in disgrace.
18
May they know that You alone, whose name is the LORD, are Most High over all the earth.

(a)83:1 Or deaf

Be not silent, O God

1
God, don’t keep silent. Don’t keep silent, and don’t be still, God.
2
For, behold, your enemies are stirred up. Those who hate you have lifted up their heads.
3
They conspire with cunning against your people. They plot against your cherished ones.
4
“Come,” they say, “let’s destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”
5
For they have conspired together with one mind. They form an alliance against you.
6
The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites;
7
Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8
Assyria also is joined with them. They have helped the children of Lot. Selah.
9
Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon;
10
who perished at Endor, who became as dung for the earth.
11
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12
who said, “Let’s take possession of God’s pasture lands.”
13
My God, make them like tumbleweed, like chaff before the wind.
14
As the fire that burns the forest, as the flame that sets the mountains on fire,
15
so pursue them with your tempest, and terrify them with your storm.
16
Fill their faces with confusion, that they may seek your name, LORD.
17
Let them be disappointed and dismayed forever. Yes, let them be confounded and perish;
18
that they may know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.
