A song, a melody of Asaph.1O God, do not keep silence before you; do not be deaf and do not be still, O God.2For behold, your enemies roar, and those who hate you have lifted up their head.3Against your people they lay shrewd plots, and they conspire against your treasured ones.4They have said, "Come, let us destroy them from being a nation, so that the name of Israel may be remembered no more."5For they have conspired with one heart against you; they make a covenant.6The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites,7Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia together with the inhabitants of Tyre;8Assyria also has joined them; they have become an arm for the sons of Lot. Selah.9Deal with them as with Midian, as with Sisera, as with Jabin at the torrent of Kishon,10who were destroyed at En-dor and became as dung for the earth.11Make their nobles like Oreb and like Zeeb, and like Zebah and like Zalmunna—all their princes,12who said, "Let us take possession for ourselves of the habitations of God."13O my God, make them like a wheel, like stubble before the wind,14as fire burns the forest and as a flame sets the mountains ablaze,15so pursue them with your tempest and terrify them with your storm.16Fill their faces with dishonor, that they may seek your name, O the LORD.17Let them be ashamed and dismayed forever; let them be put to shame and perish,18and let them know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.
