1A song, a psalm of Asaph. Do not keep silent, O God: hold not your peace, be not still, God.
2For see! Your enemies roar, those who hate you lift up their heads,
3laying crafty plans for your people, and plotting against those you treasure.
4“Come, let us wipe them out as a nation, so Israel's name will be mentioned no more.”
5For, conspiring with one accord, they have made a league against you
6Tents of Edom, and Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagrites.
7Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia, with the people of Tyre;
8Syria, too, is confederate, they have strengthened the children of Lot. Selah
9Deal with them as you dealt with Midian, with Sisera, with Jabin, at the torrent of Kishon,
10who at Endor were destroyed, and became dung for the field.
11Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12who said, “Let us take for ourselves the meadows of God.”
13Whirl them, my God, like dust, like stubble before the wind.
