Psalm 83
New Century Version
A Prayer Against the Enemies
A song. A psalm of Asaph.
83 God, do not keep quiet;
God, do not be silent or still.
2 Your enemies are making noises;
those who hate you are getting ready to attack.
3 They are making secret plans against your people;
they plot against those you love.
4 They say, “Come, let’s destroy them as a nation.
Then no one will ever remember the name ‘Israel.’”
5 They are united in their plan.
These have made an agreement against you:
6 the families of Edom and the Ishmaelites,
Moab and the Hagrites,
7 the people of Byblos, Ammon, Amalek,
Philistia, and Tyre.
8 Even Assyria has joined them
to help Ammon and Moab, the descendants of Lot. Selah
9 God, do to them what you did to Midian,
what you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River.
10 They died at Endor,
and their bodies rotted on the ground.
11 Do to their important leaders what you did to Oreb and Zeeb.
Do to their princes what you did to Zebah and Zalmunna.
12 They said, “Let’s take for ourselves
the pasturelands that belong to God.”
13 My God, make them like tumbleweed,
like chaff blown away by the wind.
14 Be like a fire that burns a forest
or like flames that blaze through the hills.
15 Chase them with your storm,
and frighten them with your wind.
16 Cover them with shame.
Then people will look for you, Lord.
17 Make them afraid and ashamed forever.
Disgrace them and destroy them.
18 Then they will know that you are the Lord,
that only you are God Most High over all the earth.
诗篇 83
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
祈求 神消滅周圍敵國
歌一首，亞薩的詩。
83 神啊！求你不要靜默；
神啊！求你不要閉口，也不要一言不發。
2 看哪！你的仇敵喧嘩，
恨你的人都抬起頭來。
3 他們密謀奸詐，陷害你的子民；
他們彼此商議，攻擊你所寶貴的人。
4 他們說：“來吧！我們來把他們除滅，使他們不再成國，
使以色列的名不再被人記念。”
5 他們同心商議，
彼此結盟，要和你對抗。
6 他們就是住帳棚的以東人和以實瑪利人，
摩押人和夏甲人，
7 迦巴勒、亞捫、亞瑪力、
非利士和推羅的居民。
8 亞述也和他們聯合起來，
作了羅得子孫的幫手。（細拉）
9 求你待他們好像待米甸人，
像在基順河待西西拉和耶賓一樣；
10 他們都在隱．多珥被消滅，
成了地上的糞土。
11 求你使他們的貴族像俄立和西伊伯，
使他們的王子像西巴和撒慕拿。
12 他們曾說：
“我們要得著 神的牧場作自己的產業。”
13 我的 神啊！求你使他們像旋風捲起的草，
像風前的碎稭。
14 火怎樣焚燒樹林，
火燄怎樣燃燒群山，
15 求你也照樣用狂風追趕他們，
藉暴風雨驚嚇他們。
16 耶和華啊！求你使他們滿面羞愧，
好使他們尋求你的名。
17 願他們永遠受辱驚惶，
願他們抱愧滅亡。
18 使他們知道只有你的名是耶和華，
唯有你是掌管全地的至高者。
