1Do not keep silent, O God. Do not hold your peace. Do not be still, O God.
2Look, your enemies are making an uproar. Those who hate you have lifted up their heads.
3They have made sly plans against your people. They have plotted against those you keep hidden.
4They have said, "Come, let us cut them off, so they are no longer a nation. Let the name of Israel be remembered no more."
5For they have plotted together with one mind. They have made a league against you:
7Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the people of Tyre.
8Assur also has joined with them. They have helped the children of Lot. Selah.
9Do to them as you did to the Midianites, as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison.
10They died at Endor. They became like dung on the ground.
11Make their nobles like Oreb and like Zeeb. Make all their princes like Zebah and like Zalmunna.
12They said, "Let us take the houses of God for ourselves."
13O my God, make them like a rolling wheel, like straw before the wind.
14As fire burns a forest, and as flame sets the mountains on fire,
15so chase them with your tempest, and make them afraid with your storm.
16Fill their faces with shame, so that they may seek your name, O LORD.
17Let them be confused and troubled for ever. Let them be put to shame and perish,
18so that people may know that you, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, are the Most High over all the earth.
