תְהִלִּים 83

1 שִׁ֖יר מִזְמֹ֣ור לְאָסָֽף׃ אֱלֹהִ֥ים אַל־דֳּמִי־לָ֑ךְ אַל־תֶּחֱרַ֖שׁ וְאַל־תִּשְׁקֹ֣ט אֵֽל׃

A SONG. A PSALM OF ASAPH. O God, let there be no silence to You, Do not be silent, nor be quiet, O God.

2 כִּֽי־הִנֵּ֣ה אֹ֭ויְבֶיךָ יֶהֱמָי֑וּן וּ֝מְשַׂנְאֶ֗יךָ נָ֣שְׂאוּ רֹֽאשׁ׃

For behold, Your enemies roar, And those hating You have lifted up the head,

3 עַֽל־עַ֭מְּךָ יַעֲרִ֣ימוּ סֹ֑וד וְ֝יִתְיָעֲצ֗וּ עַל־צְפוּנֶֽיךָ׃

They take crafty counsel against Your people, And consult against Your hidden ones.

4 אָמְר֗וּ לְ֭כוּ וְנַכְחִידֵ֣ם מִגֹּ֑וי וְלֹֽא־יִזָּכֵ֖ר שֵֽׁם־יִשְׂרָאֵ֣ל עֹֽוד׃

They have said, “Come, and we cut them off from [being] a nation, And the name of Israel is not remembered anymore.”

5 כִּ֤י נֹועֲצ֣וּ לֵ֣ב יַחְדָּ֑ו עָ֝לֶ֗יךָ בְּרִ֣ית יִכְרֹֽתוּ׃

For they consulted in heart together, They make a covenant against You,

6 אָהֳלֵ֣י אֱ֭דֹום וְיִשְׁמְעֵאלִ֗ים מֹואָ֥ב וְהַגְרֽ͏ִים׃

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

7 גְּבָ֣ל וְ֭עַמֹּון וַעֲמָלֵ֑ק פְּ֝לֶ֗שֶׁת עִם־יֹ֥שְׁבֵי צֹֽור׃

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

8 גַּם־אַ֭שּׁוּר נִלְוָ֣ה עִמָּ֑ם הָ֤י֥וּ זְרֹ֖ועַ לִבְנֵי־לֹ֣וט סֶֽלָה׃

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

9 עֲשֵֽׂה־לָהֶ֥ם כְּמִדְיָ֑ן כְּֽסִֽיסְרָ֥א כְ֝יָבִ֗ין בְּנַ֣חַל קִישֹֽׁון׃

Do to them as Midian, As Sisera, as Jabin, at the Brook of Kishon.

10 נִשְׁמְד֥וּ בְֽעֵין־דֹּ֑אר הָ֥יוּ דֹּ֝֗מֶן לָאֲדָמָֽה׃

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

11 שִׁיתֵ֣מֹו נְ֭דִיבֵמֹו כְּעֹרֵ֣ב וְכִזְאֵ֑ב וּֽכְזֶ֥בַח וּ֝כְצַלְמֻנָּ֗ע כָּל־נְסִיכֵֽמֹו׃

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

12 אֲשֶׁ֣ר אָ֭מְרוּ נִ֣ירֲשָׁה לָּ֑נוּ אֵ֝֗ת נְאֹ֣ות אֱלֹהִֽים׃

Who have said, “Let us occupy the pastures of God for ourselves.”

13 אֱ‍ֽלֹהַ֗י שִׁיתֵ֥מֹו כַגַּלְגַּ֑ל כְּ֝קַ֗שׁ לִפְנֵי־רֽוּחַ׃

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

14 כְּאֵ֥שׁ תִּבְעַר־יָ֑עַר וּ֝כְלֶהָבָ֗ה תְּלַהֵ֥ט הָרִֽים׃

As a fire burns a forest, And as a flame sets hills on fire,

15 כֵּ֭ן תִּרְדְּפֵ֣ם בְּסַעֲרֶ֑ךָ וּבְסוּפָתְךָ֥ תְבַהֲלֵֽם׃

So You pursue them with Your whirlwind, And trouble them with Your windstorm.

16 מַלֵּ֣א פְנֵיהֶ֣ם קָלֹ֑ון וִֽיבַקְשׁ֖וּ שִׁמְךָ֣ יְהוָֽה׃

Fill their faces [with] shame, And they seek Your Name, O YHWH.

17 יֵבֹ֖שׁוּ וְיִבָּהֲל֥וּ עֲדֵי־עַ֗ד וְֽיַחְפְּר֥וּ וְיֹאבֵֽדוּ׃

They are ashamed and troubled forever, Indeed, they are confounded and lost.

18 וֽ͏ְיֵדְע֗וּ כִּֽי־אַתָּ֬ה שִׁמְךָ֣ יְהוָ֣ה לְבַדֶּ֑ךָ עֶ֝לְיֹ֗ון עַל־כָּל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃

And they know that You—Your Name [is] YHWH—By Yourself [are] the Most High over all the earth!
