1 Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
-
2 For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
-
3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
-
4 They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
-
5 For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
-
6 The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
-
7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
-
8 Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.
-
9 Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
-
10 Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.
-
11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
-
12 Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
-
13 O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
-
14 As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
-
15 So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
-
16 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
-
17 Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
-
18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.

- 1 O God, do not remain quiet; Do not be silent and, O God, do not be still.
- 2 For behold, Your enemies make an uproar, And those who hate You have exalted themselves.
- 3 They make shrewd plans against Your people, And conspire together against Your treasured ones.
- 4 They have said, “Come, and let us wipe them out as a nation, That the name of Israel be remembered no more.”
- 5 For they have conspired together with one mind; Against You they make a covenant:
- 6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites;
- 7 Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
- 8 Assyria also has joined with them; They have become a help to the children of Lot. Selah.
- 9 Deal with them as with Midian, As with Sisera and Jabin at the torrent of Kishon,
- 10 Who were destroyed at En-dor, Who became as dung for the ground.
- 11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb And all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
- 12 Who said, “Let us possess for ourselves The pastures of God.”
- 13 O my God, make them like the whirling dust, Like chaff before the wind.
- 14 Like fire that burns the forest And like a flame that sets the mountains on fire,
- 15 So pursue them with Your tempest And terrify them with Your storm.
- 16 Fill their faces with dishonor, That they may seek Your name, O LORD.
- 17 Let them be ashamed and dismayed forever, And let them be humiliated and perish,
- 18 That they may know that You alone, whose name is the LORD, Are the Most High over all the earth.
