< Psalms 83 >

1 A Song. A Psalm. Of Asaph. O God, do not keep quiet: let your lips be open and take no rest, O God.
亚萨的诗歌。 神啊，求你不要静默！ 神啊，求你不要闭口，也不要不作声！
2 For see! those who make war on you are out of control; your haters are lifting up their heads.
因为你的仇敌喧嚷， 恨你的抬起头来。
3 They have made wise designs against your people, talking together against those whom you keep in a secret place.
他们同谋奸诈要害你的百姓， 彼此商议要害你所隐藏的人。
4 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.
他们说：来吧，我们将他们剪灭， 使他们不再成国！ 使以色列的名不再被人记念！
5 For they have all come to an agreement; they are all joined together against you:
他们同心商议， 彼此结盟，要抵挡你，
6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab and the Hagarites;
就是住帐棚的以东人和以实玛利人， 摩押和夏甲人，
7 Gebal and Ammon and Amalek; the Philistines and the people of Tyre;
迦巴勒、亚扪， 和亚玛力、非利士并泰尔的居民。
8 Assur is joined with them; they have become the support of the children of Lot. (Selah)
亚述也与他们连合； 他们作罗得子孙的帮手。 (细拉)
9 Do to them what you did to the Midianites; what you did to Sisera and Jabin, at the stream of Kishon:
求你待他们，如待米甸， 如在基顺河待西西拉和耶宾一样。
10 Who came to destruction at En-dor; their bodies became dust and waste.
他们在隐·多珥灭亡， 成了地上的粪土。
11 Make their chiefs like Oreb and Zeeb; and all their rulers like Zebah and Zalmunna:
求你叫他们的首领像俄立和西伊伯， 叫他们的王子都像西巴和撒慕拿。
12 Who have said, Let us take for our heritage the resting-place of God.
他们说：我们要得 神的住处， 作为自己的产业。
13 O my God, make them like the rolling dust; like dry stems before the wind.
我的 神啊，求你叫他们像旋风的尘土， 像风前的碎秸。
14 As fire burning a wood, and as a flame causing fire on the mountains,
火怎样焚烧树林， 火焰怎样烧着山岭，
15 So go after them with your strong wind, and let them be full of fear because of your storm.
求你也照样用狂风追赶他们， 用暴雨恐吓他们。
16 Let their faces be full of shame; so that they may give honour to your name, O Lord.
愿你使他们满面羞耻， 好叫他们寻求你—耶和华的名！
17 Let them be overcome and troubled for ever; let them be put to shame and come to destruction;
愿他们永远羞愧惊惶！ 愿他们惭愧灭亡！
18 So that men may see that you only, whose name is Yahweh, are Most High over all the earth.
使他们知道：惟独你— 名为耶和华的—是全地以上的至高者！
