Psalms 83
1 1 1 A song. A psalm of Asaph.
1 O God, do not keep silent; 1 be not quiet, O God, be not still.
2 See how your enemies are astir, 2 how your foes rear their heads.
3 With cunning they conspire against your people; 3 they plot against those you cherish.
4 "Come," they say, "let us destroy them as a nation, 4 that the name of Israel be remembered no more."
5 With one mind they plot together; 5 they form an alliance against you—
6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, 6 of Moab and the Hagrites,
7 Gebal,[a] Ammon and Amalek, 7 Philistia, with the people of Tyre.
8 Even Assyria has joined them 8 to lend strength to the descendants of Lot.Selah
