A song, a psalm of Asaph.{HR}O God, keep not silence;{HR}Hold not thy peace and be not still, O God .
For, behold, thine enemies make a tumult,{HR}And those that hate thee have lifted up the head.
Against thy people they devise secret craft{HR}And consult against thy hidden ones.
They said, Come, and we will cut them off from [being] a nation,{HR}And let the name of Israel be remembered no more.
For they have heartily consulted together;{HR}Against thee do they make a covenant:
The tents of Edom, and the Ishmaelites,{HR}Moab and the Hagarenes;
Gebal and Ammon and Amalek;{HR}Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
Asshur also is joined with them;{HR}They are an arm to the sons of Lot. Selah.
Do to them as [to] Midian, as [to] Sisera,{HR}As [to] Jabin, at the river Kishon.
They were destroyed at Endor;{HR}They became dung for the ground.
Make their nobles as Oreb and as Zeeb;{HR}Yea, all their princes as Zebah and as Zalmunna;
Who said, Let us take to our inheritance the habitations of God.
O my God, make them as the whirling thing,{HR}As stubble before the wind.
As fire will burn a forest,{HR}And as a flame will set mountains on fire,
So pursue them with thy tempest{HR}And with thy whirlwind trouble them.
Fill their faces with shame,{HR}That [and] they will seek thy name, O Jehovah.
They shall be ashamed and dismayed forever,{HR}And they shall be confounded and perish.
And they shall know that thou alone,{HR}Whose name [is] Jehovah,{HR}[Art] Most High above all the earth.
