Psalms 83

1 [A song. A Psalm by Asaph.] God, do not be silent. Do not be deaf, and do not be inactive, God.

Asaph ih Saam laa. Aw Sithaw, angam duem hmah; aw Sithaw, om sut hmah loe, om duem hmah.

2 For, look, your enemies make an uproar. Those who hate you are hostile.

Na misanawk loe savaih o; nang hnuma kaminawk kawbangmaw lu to padoengh o tahang, tito khen ah.

3 They devise crafty plans against your people, and conspire together against your treasured ones.

Nihcae loe nang ih kaminawk aling hanah thuih o moe, na buepsak ih kaminawk naeh hanah lok aram o.

4 They say, "Come, and let us annihilate them as a nation; let the name of Israel may be remembered no more."

Nihcae mah, Angzo oh, nihcae to acaeng ah ohhaih thung hoiah anghmasak ving si; Israel ahmin to mi mah doeh panoek mak ai boeh, tiah thuih o.

5 For they plot a unified strategy; they make a covenant against you;

Palung maeto amhonghaih hoiah lok a thuih o; na lok to aek hanah maeto ah angcuu o:

6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagrites,

Edom ih kahni imnawk hoi Ishmael ih caanawk, Moab kaminawk hoi Hagar ih kaminawk;

7 Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre.

Gebal kaminawk, Ammon kaminawk hoi Amelek kaminawk, Philistia kaminawk hoi Tura vangpui kaminawk;

8 Assyria too is joined with them; they lend support to the descendants of Lot. (Selah)

Assyria kaminawk doeh nihcae khaeah athum o; nihcae mah Lot ih caanawk to abomh.

9 Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera, as to Jabin at the Kishon River,

Midian kaminawk nuiah na sak ih baktih, Sisera kaminawk hoi Kishon tava ah Jabin kaminawk khaeah na sak ih baktih toengah, nihcae nuiah sah toeng ah,

10 who were destroyed at Endor, who became manure for the ground.

nihcae loe En Dor ah amro o boih moe, long nuiah panuet thok ah ni oh o boih boeh.

11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,

Nihcae ih kalen kaminawk to Oreb hoi Zeeb baktiah sah ah; ue, angmacae angraeng ih caanawk to Zebah hoi Zalmunna baktiah omsak ah,

12 who said, "Let us take possession for ourselves the pastures of God."

nihcae mah, Sithaw ih imnawk to aimacae hanah la si, tiah a thuih o.

13 My God, make them like tumbleweed; like dead weeds blown by the wind.

Aw ka Sithaw, nihcae to takhi mah pahae ih anghnoeng baktiah omsak ah loe, takhi mah hmuh ih tavai baktiah angcoengsak ah.

14 Like a fire that consumes a forest, and like the flames that consume the mountains,

Hmai mah kangh ih thing baktih, hmai mah maenawk kangh naah kangqong hmaipalai baktiah omsak ah,

15 so pursue them with your gale winds, and terrify them with your storm.

takhi sae hoiah nihcae to patom ah loe, nangmah ih takhipui hoiah nihcae to pazih ah.

16 Cover their faces with shame, so that they might seek your name, YHWH.

Aw Angraeng, nihcae mah na hmin pakrong o thai hanah, nihcae ih mikhmainawk to azathaih hoiah koisak ah.

17 Let them be put to shame and terrified forever; let them perish in disgrace,

Nihcae azat o nasoe loe, raihaih tong o poe nasoe; ue, nihcae loe azat o nasoe loe, anghma o poe nasoe.

18 that they will know that you alone, whose name is YHWH, are the Most High over all the earth.

JEHOVAH, tiah ahmin maeto khue kaom Nang loe long nui boih ah na Sang koek, tiah kaminawk mah panoek o nasoe.
