Book - Psalms - Chapter = 83 --> NLT
-
O God, don't sit idly by, silent and inactive!
-
Don't you hear the tumult of your enemies? Don't you see what your arrogant enemies are doing?
-
They devise crafty schemes against your people, laying plans against your precious ones.
-
"Come," they say, "let us wipe out Israel as a nation. We will destroy the very memory of its existence."
-
This was their unanimous decision. They signed a treaty as allies against you--
-
these Edomites and Ishmaelites, Moabites and Hagrites,
-
Gebalites, Ammonites, and Amalekites, and people from Philistia and Tyre.
-
Assyria has joined them, too, and is allied with the descendants of Lot.
-
Do to them as you did to the Midianites or as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River.
-
They were destroyed at Endor, and their decaying corpses fertilized the soil.
-
Let their mighty nobles die as Oreb and Zeeb did. Let all their princes die like Zebah and Zalmunna,
-
for they said, "Let us seize for our own use these pasturelands of God!"
-
O my God, blow them away like whirling dust, like chaff before the wind!
-
As a fire roars through a forest and as a flame sets mountains ablaze,
-
chase them with your fierce storms; terrify them with your tempests.
-
Utterly disgrace them until they submit to your name, O LORD.
-
Let them be ashamed and terrified forever. Make them failures in everything they do,
-
until they learn that you alone are called the LORD, that you alone are the Most High, supreme over all the earth.
