| | 1 | A Song. A Psalm of Asaph. Do not keep silent, O God! Do not hold Your peace, And do not be still, O God! | |
| | 2 | For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; And those who hate You have lifted up their head. | |
| | 3 | They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones. | |
| | 4 | They have said, "Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more." | |
| | 5 | For they have consulted together with one consent; They form a confederacy against You: | |
| | 6 | The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab and the Hagrites; | |
| | 7 | Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre; | |
| | 8 | Assyria also has joined with them; They have helped the children of Lot. Selah | |
| | 9 | Deal with them as with Midian, As with Sisera, As with Jabin at the Brook Kishon, | |
| | 10 | Who perished at En Dor, Who became as refuse on the earth. | |
| | 11 | Make their nobles like Oreb and like Zeeb, Yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna, | |
| | 12 | Who said, "Let us take for ourselves The pastures of God for a possession." | |
| | 13 | O my God, make them like the whirling dust, Like the chaff before the wind! | |
| | 14 | As the fire burns the woods, And as the flame 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 confounded and dismayed forever; Yes, let them be put to shame and perish, | |
| | 18 | That they may know that You, whose name alone is the LORD, Are the Most High over all the earth. | |
