Psalm 83:7-18
English Standard Version
7 (A)Gebal and (B)Ammon and (C)Amalek,
(D)Philistia with the inhabitants of (E)Tyre;
8 (F)Asshur also has joined them;
they are the strong arm of (G)the children of Lot. Selah
9 Do to them as you did to (H)Midian,
as to (I)Sisera and Jabin at (J)the river Kishon,
10 who were destroyed at (K)En-dor,
who became (L)dung for the ground.
11 Make their nobles like (M)Oreb and Zeeb,
all their princes like (N)Zebah and Zalmunna,
12 who said, (O)“Let us take possession for ourselves
of the pastures of God.”
13 O my God, make them like (P)whirling dust,[a]
like (Q)chaff before the wind.
14 As (R)fire consumes the forest,
as the flame (S)sets the mountains ablaze,
15 so may you pursue them (T)with your tempest
and terrify them with your hurricane!
16 (U)Fill their faces with shame,
that they may seek your name, O Lord.
17 Let them be (V)put to shame and dismayed forever;
let them perish in disgrace,
18 that they may (W)know that you alone,
(X)whose name is the Lord,
are (Y)the Most High over all the earth.
