| 1 | O God, do not keep silence; do not hold your peace or be still, O God! |
| 2 | Even now your enemies are in tumult; those who hate you have raised their heads. |
| 3 | They lay crafty plans against your people; they consult together against those you protect. |
| 4 | They say, “Come, let us wipe them out as a nation; let the name of Israel be remembered no more.” |
| 5 | They conspire with one accord; 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 them; they are the strong arm of the children of Lot. Selah |
| 9 | Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera and Jabin at the Wadi Kishon, |
| 10 | who were destroyed at En-dor, who became dung for the ground. |
| 11 | Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna, |
| 12 | who said, “Let us take the pastures of God for our own possession.” |
| 13 | O my God, make them like whirling dust, like chaff before the wind. |
| 14 | As fire consumes the forest, as the flame sets the mountains ablaze, |
| 15 | so pursue them with your tempest and terrify them with your hurricane. |
| 16 | Fill their faces with shame, so that they may seek your name, O LORD. |
| 17 | Let them be put to shame and dismayed forever; let them perish in disgrace. |
| 18 | Let them know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth. |
