Psalms 83
1 God, do not continue to be silent! Do not be quiet and say nothing,
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.
2 because your enemies are rioting against you; those who hate you are rebelling against you!
For here! enemies your they are in an uproar! and [those who] hate you they have lifted a head.
3 They are secretly planning to do things to harm [us], your people; they are (conspiring together against/planning how to defeat) the people whom you protect.
On people your they make crafty counsel so they may consult together on treasured [ones] your.
4 They say, “Come, we must destroy their nation, with the result that no one will remember that Israel ever existed!”
They have said come and let us annihilate them from a nation and not it will be remembered [the] name of Israel again.
5 They have agreed on [what they want to do to destroy Israel], and they have formed an alliance against you.
For they have consulted heart together on you a covenant they are making.
6 [The people who have done that are] the people of Edom [region], the descendants of Ishmael [who live on the east side of the Jordan River], the Moab [people-group], the descendants of Hagar [who also live on the east side of the Jordan River],
[the] tents of Edom and [the] Ishmaelites Moab and [the] Hagrites.
7 Gebal [people-group], the Ammon [people-group], the Amalek [people-group], the Philistia [people-group], and the people of Tyre [city].
Gebal and Ammon and Amalek Philistia with [the] inhabitants of Tyre.
8 [The people of] have joined them; they are strong allies of the [Moab and Ammon people-groups, who are] descendants of [Abraham’s nephew] Lot.
Also Assyria it has joined itself with them they have become an arm for [the] children of Lot (Selah)
9 [God], do to those people things like you did to the Midian [people-group], like [you did] to Sisera and Jabin at Kishon River.
Do to them like Midian like Sisera like Jabin at [the] wadi of Kishon.
10 You destroyed them at Endor [town], and their corpses [lay on] the ground and decayed.
They were destroyed at En-dor they became dung for the ground.
11 Do to them things like you did to [Kings] Oreb and Zeeb; defeat their leaders like you defeated Zebah and Zalmunna,
Make them noble [people] their like Oreb and like Zeeb and like Zebah and like Zalmunna all princes their.
12 who said, “We will take for ourselves the land that [the Israelis say] belongs to God!”
Who they said let us take possession of for ourselves [the] pastures of God.
13 My God, cause them [to disappear quickly] like whirling dust, like chaff that the wind blows away!
O God my make them like whirling dust like chaff before a wind.
14 Like a fire completely burns a forest and like flames burn in the mountains,
Like a fire [which] it burns a forest and like a flame [which] it sets ablaze mountains.
15 expel them by sending storms; cause them to be terrified by your big storms/hurricanes!
So you will pursue them with storm your and with storm-wind your you will terrify them.
16 Cause them [SYN] to be very ashamed in order that they will admit that you are very powerful.
Fill faces their shame so they may seek name your O Yahweh.
17 Cause them to be forever disgraced [because of being defeated], and cause them to die while they are still disgraced.
May they be ashamed and they may be dismayed until perpetuity and may they be abashed and they may perish.
18 Cause them to know that you, whose name is Yahweh, are the supreme ruler over everything on the earth.
And they may know that you name your [is] Yahweh to alone you [the] Most High over all the earth.
