Psalm 83

HCSBNLTNIVKJV

2 See how Your enemies make an uproar; those who hate You have acted arrogantly.

3 They devise clever schemes against Your people; they conspire against Your treasured ones.

4 They say, “Come, let us wipe them out as a nation so that Israel’s name will no longer be remembered.”

5 For they have conspired with one mind; they form an alliance 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 Even Assyria has joined them; they lend support to the sons of Lot.

Selah

9 Deal with them as You did with Midian, as You did with Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River.

10 They were destroyed at En-dor; they became manure for the ground.

2 Don’t you hear the uproar of your enemies? Don’t you see that your arrogant enemies are rising up?

3 They devise crafty schemes against your people; they conspire against your precious ones.

4 “Come,” they say, “let us wipe out Israel as a nation. We will destroy the very memory of its existence.”

5 Yes, this was their unanimous decision. They signed a treaty as allies against you—

6 these Edomites and Ishmaelites; Moabites and Hagrites;

7 Gebalites, Ammonites, and Amalekites; and people from Philistia and Tyre.

8 Assyria has joined them, too, and is allied with the descendants of Lot

Interlude

9 Do to them as you did to the Midianites and as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River.

10 They were destroyed at Endor, and their decaying corpses fertilized the soil.

2 See how your enemies growl, how your foes rear their heads.
