For behold, your enemies (A)make an uproar;
    those who hate you have (B)raised their heads.
They lay (C)crafty plans against your people;
    they consult together against your (D)treasured ones.
They say, “Come, (E)let us wipe them out as a nation;
    let the name of Israel be remembered no more!”
For they conspire with one accord;
    against you they make a covenant—
the tents of (F)Edom and (G)the Ishmaelites,
    (H)Moab and (I)the Hagrites,
(J)Gebal and (K)Ammon and (L)Amalek,
    (M)Philistia with the inhabitants of (N)Tyre;
(O)Asshur also has joined them;
    they are the strong arm of (P)the children of Lot. Selah

Do to them as you did to (Q)Midian,
    as to (R)Sisera and Jabin at (S)the river Kishon,
10 who were destroyed at (T)En-dor,
    who became (U)dung for the ground.
11 Make their nobles like (V)Oreb and Zeeb,
    all their princes like (W)Zebah and Zalmunna,
12 who said, (X)“Let us take possession for ourselves
    of the pastures of God.”

13 O my God, make them like (Y)whirling dust,[a]
    like (Z)chaff before the wind.
14 As (AA)fire consumes the forest,
    as the flame (AB)sets the mountains ablaze,
15 so may you pursue them (AC)with your tempest
    and terrify them with your hurricane!
16 (AD)Fill their faces with shame,
    that they may seek your name, O Lord.
17 Let them be (AE)put to shame and dismayed forever;
    let them perish in disgrace,
18 that they may (AF)know that you alone,
    (AG)whose name is the Lord,
    are (AH)the Most High over all the earth.

  1. Psalm 83:13 Or like a tumbleweed

See how your enemies growl,(A)
    how your foes rear their heads.(B)
With cunning they conspire(C) against your people;
    they plot against those you cherish.(D)
“Come,” they say, “let us destroy(E) them as a nation,(F)

    or a flame sets the mountains ablaze,(AC)
15 so pursue them with your tempest(AD)
    and terrify them with your storm.(AE)
16 Cover their faces with shame,(AF) Lord,
    so that they will seek your name.

17 May they ever be ashamed and dismayed;(AG)
    may they perish in disgrace.(AH)
