1 - A Song, --A Psalm of Asaph. O God, let there be no silence to Thee, Be not silent, nor be quiet, O God.

2 - For, lo, Thine enemies do roar, And those hating Thee have lifted up the head,

3 - Against Thy people they take crafty counsel, And consult against Thy hidden ones.

4 - They have said, `Come, And we cut them off from <FI>being<Fi> a nation, And the name of Israel is not remembered any more.'

5 - For they consulted in heart together, Against Thee a covenant they make,

6 - Tents of Edom, and Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagarenes,

7 - Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia with inhabitants of Tyre,

8 - Asshur also is joined with them, They have been an arm to sons of Lot. Selah.

9 - Do to them as <FI>to<Fi> Midian, As <FI>to<Fi> Sisera, as <FI>to<Fi> Jabin, at the stream Kishon.

10 - They were destroyed at Endor, They were dung for the ground!

11 - Make their nobles as Oreb and as Zeeb, And as Zebah and Zalmunna all their princes,

12 - Who have said, `Let us occupy for ourselves The comely places of God.'

13 - O my God, make them as a rolling thing, As stubble before wind.

14 - As a fire doth burn a forest, And as a flame setteth hills on fire,

15 - So dost Thou pursue them with Thy whirlwind, And with Thy hurricane troublest them.

16 - Fill their faces <FI>with<Fi> shame, And they seek Thy name, O Jehovah.

17 - They are ashamed and troubled for ever, Yea, they are confounded and lost.

18 - And they know that Thou--(Thy name <FI>is<Fi> Jehovah--by Thyself,) <FI>Art<Fi> the Most High over all the earth!
