1 A song a psalm of Asaph. O God [let] not silence [belong] to you may not you be silent and may not you be inactive O God.
A Song, a Psalm of Asaph. O God, keep not thou silence: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
2 For here! enemies your they are in an uproar! and [those who] hate you they have lifted a head.
For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3 On people your they make crafty counsel so they may consult together on treasured [ones] your.
They take crafty counsel against thy people, and consult together against thy hidden ones.
4 They have said come and let us annihilate them from a nation and not it will be remembered [the] name of Israel again.
They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
5 For they have consulted heart together on you a covenant they are making.
For they have consulted together with one consent; against thee do they make a covenant:
6 [the] tents of Edom and [the] Ishmaelites Moab and [the] Hagrites.
The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7 Gebal and Ammon and Amalek Philistia with [the] inhabitants of Tyre.
Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre:
8 Also Assyria it has joined itself with them they have become an arm for [the] children of Lot (Selah)
Assyria also is joined with them; they have holpen the children of Lot. (Selah)
9 Do to them like Midian like Sisera like Jabin at [the] wadi of Kishon.
Do thou unto them as unto Midian; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon:
10 They were destroyed at En-dor they became dung for the ground.
Which perished at En-dor; they became as dung for the earth.
11 Make them noble [people] their like Oreb and like Zeeb and like Zebah and like Zalmunna all princes their.
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb; yea, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna:
12 Who they said let us take possession of for ourselves [the] pastures of God.
Who said, Let us take to ourselves in possession the habitations of God.
13 O God my make them like whirling dust like chaff before a wind.
O my God, make them like the whirling dust; as stubble before the wind.
14 Like a fire [which] it burns a forest and like a flame [which] it sets ablaze mountains.
As the fire that burneth the forest, and as the flame that setteth the mountains on fire;
15 So you will pursue them with storm your and with storm-wind your you will terrify them.
So pursue them with thy tempest, and terrify them with thy storm.
16 Fill faces their shame so they may seek name your O Yahweh.
Fill their faces with confusion; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
17 May they be ashamed and they may be dismayed until perpetuity and may they be abashed and they may perish.
Let them be ashamed and dismayed for ever; yea, let them be confounded and perish:
18 And they may know that you name your [is] Yahweh to alone you [the] Most High over all the earth.
That they may know that thou alone, whose name is JEHOVAH, art the Most High over all the earth.
