祈求 神消灭周围敌国

歌一首,亚萨的诗。

83  神啊!求你不要静默;

 神啊!求你不要闭口,也不要一言不发。

看哪!你的仇敌喧哗,

恨你的人都抬起头来。

他们密谋奸诈,陷害你的子民;

他们彼此商议,攻击你所宝贵的人。

他们说:“来吧!我们来把他们除灭,使他们不再成国,

使以色列的名不再被人记念。”

他们同心商议,

彼此结盟,要和你对抗。

他们就是住帐棚的以东人和以实玛利人,

摩押人和夏甲人,

迦巴勒、亚扪、亚玛力、

非利士和推罗的居民。

亚述也和他们联合起来,

作了罗得子孙的帮手。(细拉)

求你待他们好象待米甸人,

像在基顺河待西西拉和耶宾一样;

10 他们都在隐.多珥被消灭,

成了地上的粪土。

11 求你使他们的贵族像俄立和西伊伯,

使他们的王子像西巴和撒慕拿。

12 他们曾说:

“我们要得着 神的牧场作自己的产业。”

13 我的 神啊!求你使他们像旋风卷起的草,

像风前的碎秸。

14 火怎样焚烧树林,

火焰怎样燃烧群山,

15 求你也照样用狂风追赶他们,

藉暴风雨惊吓他们。

16 耶和华啊!求你使他们满面羞愧,

好使他们寻求你的名。

17 愿他们永远受辱惊惶,

愿他们抱愧灭亡。

18 使他们知道只有你的名是耶和华,

唯有你是掌管全地的至高者。

亞薩的詩歌。

求主敗敵

83  神啊,求你不要靜默!
     神啊,求你不要閉口,不要不作聲!
因為你的仇敵喧嚷,
    恨你的抬起頭來。
他們同謀奸詐要害你的百姓,
    彼此商議要害你所保護的人。
他們說:「來吧,我們將他們除滅,
    使他們不再成國!
    使以色列的名不再被人記念!」
他們同心商議,
    彼此結盟,要抵擋你;
他們就是住帳棚的以東以實瑪利人,
    摩押夏甲人,
迦巴勒亞捫
    亞瑪力非利士推羅的居民。
亞述也與他們聯合,
    羅得子孫的幫手。(細拉)
求你待他們,如待米甸
    如在基順河西西拉耶賓一樣。
10 他們在隱‧多珥滅亡,
    成了地上的糞土。
11 求你使他們的貴族像俄立西伊伯
    使他們的王子都像西巴撒慕拿
12 因為他們說:「我們要得 神的住處,
    作自己的產業。」

13 我的 神啊,求你使他們像旋風中的塵土,
    如風前的碎稭。
14 火怎樣焚燒樹林,
    火焰怎樣燒着山嶺,
15 求你也照樣用狂風追趕他們,
    用暴雨恐嚇他們。
16 耶和華啊,求你使他們滿面羞恥,
    好叫他們尋求你的名!
17 願他們永遠羞愧驚惶!
    願他們慚愧滅亡!
18 願他們認識你的名是耶和華,
    惟獨你是掌管全地的至高者!

Psalm 83[a]

A song. A psalm of Asaph.

O God, do not remain silent;(A)
    do not turn a deaf ear,
    do not stand aloof, O God.
See how your enemies growl,(B)
    how your foes rear their heads.(C)
With cunning they conspire(D) against your people;
    they plot against those you cherish.(E)
“Come,” they say, “let us destroy(F) them as a nation,(G)
    so that Israel’s name is remembered(H) no more.”

With one mind they plot together;(I)
    they form an alliance against you—
the tents of Edom(J) and the Ishmaelites,
    of Moab(K) and the Hagrites,(L)
Byblos,(M) Ammon(N) and Amalek,(O)
    Philistia,(P) with the people of Tyre.(Q)
Even Assyria(R) has joined them
    to reinforce Lot’s descendants.[b](S)

Do to them as you did to Midian,(T)
    as you did to Sisera(U) and Jabin(V) at the river Kishon,(W)
10 who perished at Endor(X)
    and became like dung(Y) on the ground.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb,(Z)
    all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,(AA)
12 who said, “Let us take possession(AB)
    of the pasturelands of God.”

13 Make them like tumbleweed, my God,
    like chaff(AC) before the wind.
14 As fire consumes the forest
    or a flame sets the mountains ablaze,(AD)
15 so pursue them with your tempest(AE)
    and terrify them with your storm.(AF)
16 Cover their faces with shame,(AG) Lord,
    so that they will seek your name.

17 May they ever be ashamed and dismayed;(AH)
    may they perish in disgrace.(AI)
18 Let them know that you, whose name is the Lord(AJ)
    that you alone are the Most High(AK) over all the earth.(AL)

Footnotes

  1. Psalm 83:1 In Hebrew texts 83:1-18 is numbered 83:2-19.
  2. Psalm 83:8 The Hebrew has Selah (a word of uncertain meaning) here.

83 Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.

For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.

They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.

They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.

For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:

The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;

Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;

Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.

Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:

10 Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.

11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:

12 Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.

13 O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.

14 As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;

15 So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.

16 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O Lord.

17 Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:

18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is Jehovah, art the most high over all the earth.
