  1. Psalm 46:1 An abundantly available help

They have taken crafty counsel against Your people,
And consulted together (A)against Your sheltered ones.
They have said, “Come, and (B)let us cut them off from being a nation,
That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”

For they have consulted together with one [a]consent;
They [b]form a confederacy against You:
(C)The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites;
Moab and the Hagrites;
Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek;
Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
Assyria also has joined with them;
They have helped the children of Lot. Selah

Deal with them as with (D)Midian,
As with (E)Sisera,
As with Jabin at the Brook Kishon,
10 Who perished at En Dor,
(F)Who became as refuse on the earth.
11 Make their nobles like (G)Oreb and like Zeeb,
Yes, all their princes like (H)Zebah and Zalmunna,
12 Who said, “Let us take for ourselves
The pastures of God for a possession.”

13 (I)O my God, make them like the whirling dust,
(J)Like the chaff before the wind!
14 As the fire burns the woods,
And as the flame (K)sets the mountains on fire,
15 So pursue them with Your tempest,
And frighten them with Your storm.
16 Fill their faces with shame,
That they may seek Your name, O Lord.
17 Let them be [c]confounded and dismayed forever;
Yes, let them be put to shame and perish,
18 (L)That they may know that You, whose (M)name alone is the Lord,
Are (N)the Most High over all the earth.
