Psalms 83

1 A Song, — A Psalm of Asaph. O God, let there be no silence to Thee, Be not silent, nor be quiet, O God.

Canticum Psalmi Asaph. Deus, quis similis erit tibi? ne taceas, neque compescaris Deus:

2 For, lo, Thine enemies do roar, And those hating Thee have lifted up the head,

Quoniam ecce inimici tui sonuerunt: et qui oderunt te, extulerunt caput.

3 Against Thy people they take crafty counsel, And consult against Thy hidden ones.

Super populum tuum malignaverunt consilium: et cogitaverunt adversus sanctos tuos.

4 They have said, 'Come, And we cut them off from [being] a nation, And the name of Israel is not remembered any more.'

Dixerunt: Venite, et disperdamus eos de gente: et non memoretur nomen Israel ultra.

5 For they consulted in heart together, Against Thee a covenant they make,

Quoniam cogitaverunt unanimiter: simul adversum te testamentum disposuerunt,

6 Tents of Edom, and Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagarenes,

tabernacula Idumæorum et Ismahelitæ: Moab, et Agareni,

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

Gebal, et Ammon, et Amalec: alienigenæ cum habitantibus Tyrum.

8 Asshur also is joined with them, They have been an arm to sons of Lot. (Selah)

Etenim Assur venit cum illis: facti sunt in adiutorium filiis Lot.

9 Do to them as [to] Midian, As [to] Sisera, as [to] Jabin, at the stream Kishon.

Fac illis sicut Madian et Sisaræ: sicut Iabin in torrente Cisson.

10 They were destroyed at Endor, They were dung for the ground!

Disperierunt in Endor: facti sunt ut stercus terræ.

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

Pone principes eorum sicut Oreb, et Zeb, et Zebee, et Salmana: Omnes principes eorum:

12 Who have said, 'Let us occupy for ourselves The comely places of God.'

qui dixerunt: Hereditate possideamus Sanctuarium Dei.

13 O my God, make them as a rolling thing, As stubble before wind.

Deus meus pone illos ut rotam: et sicut stipulam ante faciem venti.

14 As a fire doth burn a forest, And as a flame setteth hills on fire,

Sicut ignis, qui comburit silvam: et sicut flamma comburens montes:

15 So dost Thou pursue them with Thy whirlwind, And with Thy hurricane troublest them.

Ita persequeris illos in tempestate tua: et in ira tua turbabis eos.

16 Fill their faces [with] shame, And they seek Thy name, O Jehovah.

Imple facies eorum ignominia: et quærent nomen tuum, Domine.

17 They are ashamed and troubled for ever, Yea, they are confounded and lost.

Erubescant, et conturbentur in sæculum sæculi: et confundantur, et pereant.

18 And they know that Thou — (Thy name [is] Jehovah — by Thyself, ) [Art] the Most High over all the earth!

Et cognoscant quia nomen tibi Dominus: tu solus Altissimus in omni terra.
