詩篇 83
1 亞薩的詩歌。 上帝啊，求你不要靜默！ 上帝啊，求你不要閉口，也不要不作聲！
A Song. A Psalm. Of Asaph. O God, do not keep quiet: let your lips be open and take no rest, O God.
2 因為你的仇敵喧嚷， 恨你的抬起頭來。
For see! those who make war on you are out of control; your haters are lifting up their heads.
3 他們同謀奸詐要害你的百姓， 彼此商議要害你所隱藏的人。
They have made wise designs against your people, talking together against those whom you keep in a secret place.
4 他們說：來吧，我們將他們剪滅， 使他們不再成國！ 使以色列的名不再被人記念！
They have said, Come, let us put an end to them as a nation; so that the name of Israel may go out of man's memory.
5 他們同心商議， 彼此結盟，要抵擋你，
For they have all come to an agreement; they are all joined together against you:
6 就是住帳棚的以東人和以實瑪利人， 摩押和夏甲人，
The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab and the Hagarites;
7 迦巴勒、亞捫， 和亞瑪力、非利士並泰爾的居民。
Gebal and Ammon and Amalek; the Philistines and the people of Tyre;
8 亞述也與他們連合； 他們作羅得子孫的幫手。 (細拉)
Assur is joined with them; they have become the support of the children of Lot. (Selah)
9 求你待他們，如待米甸， 如在基順河待西西拉和耶賓一樣。
Do to them what you did to the Midianites; what you did to Sisera and Jabin, at the stream of Kishon:
10 他們在隱‧多珥滅亡， 成了地上的糞土。
Who came to destruction at En-dor; their bodies became dust and waste.
11 求你叫他們的首領像俄立和西伊伯， 叫他們的王子都像西巴和撒慕拿。
Make their chiefs like Oreb and Zeeb; and all their rulers like Zebah and Zalmunna:
12 他們說：我們要得上帝的住處， 作為自己的產業。
Who have said, Let us take for our heritage the resting-place of God.
13 我的上帝啊，求你叫他們像旋風的塵土， 像風前的碎稭。
O my God, make them like the rolling dust; like dry stems before the wind.
14 火怎樣焚燒樹林， 火焰怎樣燒着山嶺，
As fire burning a wood, and as a flame causing fire on the mountains,
15 求你也照樣用狂風追趕他們， 用暴雨恐嚇他們。
So go after them with your strong wind, and let them be full of fear because of your storm.
16 願你使他們滿面羞恥， 好叫他們尋求你－耶和華的名！
Let their faces be full of shame; so that they may give honour to your name, O Lord.
17 願他們永遠羞愧驚惶！ 願他們慚愧滅亡！
Let them be overcome and troubled for ever; let them be put to shame and come to destruction;
18 使他們知道：惟獨你－ 名為耶和華的－是全地以上的至高者！
So that men may see that you only, whose name is Yahweh, are Most High over all the earth.
