Mazmur 83
1 Mazmur Asaf: suatu nyanyian. Ya Allah, janganlah Engkau bungkam, janganlah berdiam diri dan janganlah berpangku tangan, ya Allah!
A song. A psalm of Asaph. God, do not be silent! Do not ignore us and remain unmoved, God.
2 Sebab sesungguhnya musuh-musuh-Mu ribut, orang-orang yang membenci Engkau meninggikan kepala.
Look, your enemies are making a commotion, and those who hate you have raised their heads.
3 Mereka mengadakan permufakatan licik melawan umat-Mu, dan mereka berunding untuk melawan orang-orang yang Kaulindungi.
They conspire against your people and plan together against your protected ones.
4 Kata mereka: "Marilah kita lenyapkan mereka sebagai bangsa, sehingga nama Israel tidak diingat lagi!"
They have said, “Come, and let us destroy them as a nation. Then the name of Israel will no longer be remembered.”
5 Sungguh, mereka telah berunding dengan satu hati, mereka telah mengadakan perjanjian melawan Engkau:
They have schemed together with one strategy; against you they have made an alliance.
6 Penghuni kemah-kemah Edom dan orang Ismael, Moab dan orang Hagar,
This includes the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, and the people of Moab and the Hagrites, who plot together with
7 Gebal dan Amon dan Amalek, Filistea beserta penduduk Tirus,
Gebal, Ammon, Amalek; it also includes Philistia and the inhabitants of Tyre.
8 juga Asyur telah bergabung dengan mereka, menjadi kaki tangan bani Lot. (Sela)
Assyria also is allied with them; they are helping the descendants of Lot. (Selah)
9 Perlakukanlah mereka seperti Midian, seperti Sisera, seperti Yabin dekat sungai Kison,
Do to them as you did to Midian, as you did to Sisera and to Jabin at the Kishon River.
10 yang sudah dipunahkan di En-Dor, menjadi pupuk bagi tanah.
They perished at Endor and became like manure for the earth.
11 Buatlah para pemuka mereka seperti Oreb dan Zeeb, seperti Zebah dan Salmuna semua pemimpin mereka,
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, and all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna.
12 yang berkata: "Marilah kita menduduki tempat-tempat kediaman Allah!"
They said, “Let us take for ourselves the pastures of God.”
13 Ya Allahku, buatlah mereka seperti dedak yang beterbangan, seperti jerami yang ditiup angin!
My God, make them like the whirling dust, like chaff before the wind,
14 Seperti api yang membakar hutan, dan seperti nyala api yang menghanguskan gunung-gunung,
like the fire that burns the forest, and like the flame that sets the mountains on fire.
15 kejarlah mereka dengan badai-Mu, dan kejutkanlah mereka dengan puting beliung-Mu;
Chase them with your strong wind, and terrify them with your windstorm.
16 penuhilah muka mereka dengan kehinaan, supaya mereka mencari nama-Mu, ya TUHAN!
Fill their faces with shame so that they might seek your name, Yahweh.
17 Biarlah mereka mendapat malu dan terkejut selama-lamanya; biarlah mereka tersipu-sipu dan binasa,
May they be put to shame and be terrified forever; may they perish in disgrace.
18 supaya mereka tahu bahwa Engkau sajalah yang bernama TUHAN, Yang Mahatinggi atas seluruh bumi.
Then they will know that you alone, Yahweh, are the Most High over all the earth.
