Psalmorum 83
1 Canticum Psalmi Asaph. Deus, quis similis erit tibi? ne taceas, neque compescaris Deus:
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 Quoniam ecce inimici tui sonuerunt: et qui oderunt te, extulerunt caput.
For behold, Your enemies roar, And those hating You have lifted up the head,
3 Super populum tuum malignaverunt consilium: et cogitaverunt adversus sanctos tuos.
They take crafty counsel against Your people, And consult against Your hidden ones.
4 Dixerunt: Venite, et disperdamus eos de gente: et non memoretur nomen Israel ultra.
They have said, “Come, and we cut them off from [being] a nation, And the name of Israel is not remembered anymore.”
5 Quoniam cogitaverunt unanimiter: simul adversum te testamentum disposuerunt,
For they consulted in heart together, They make a covenant against You,
6 tabernacula Idumaeorum et Ismahelitae: Moab, et Agareni,
Tents of Edom, and Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagarenes,
7 Gebal, et Ammon, et Amalec: alienigenae cum habitantibus Tyrum.
Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia with inhabitants of Tyre,
8 Etenim Assur venit cum illis: facti sunt in adiutorium filiis Lot.
Asshur is also joined with them, They have been an arm to sons of Lot. (Selah)
9 Fac illis sicut Madian et Sisarae: sicut Iabin in torrente Cisson.
Do to them as Midian, As Sisera, as Jabin, at the Brook of Kishon.
10 Disperierunt in Endor: facti sunt ut stercus terrae.
They were destroyed at Endor, They were dung for the ground!
11 Pone principes eorum sicut Oreb, et Zeb, et Zebee, et Salmana: Omnes principes eorum:
Make their nobles as Oreb and as Zeeb, And as Zebah and Zalmunna—all their princes,
12 qui dixerunt: Hereditate possideamus Sanctuarium Dei.
Who have said, “Let us occupy the pastures of God for ourselves.”
13 Deus meus pone illos ut rotam: et sicut stipulam ante faciem venti.
O my God, make them as a rolling thing, As stubble before wind.
14 Sicut ignis, qui comburit silvam: et sicut flamma comburens montes:
As a fire burns a forest, And as a flame sets hills on fire,
15 Ita persequeris illos in tempestate tua: et in ira tua turbabis eos.
So You pursue them with Your whirlwind, And trouble them with Your windstorm.
16 Imple facies eorum ignominia: et quaerent nomen tuum, Domine.
Fill their faces [with] shame, And they seek Your Name, O YHWH.
17 Erubescant, et conturbentur in saeculum saeculi: et confundantur, et pereant.
They are ashamed and troubled forever, Indeed, they are confounded and lost.
18 Et cognoscant quia nomen tibi Dominus: tu solus Altissimus in omni terra.
And they know that You—Your Name [is] YHWH—By Yourself [are] the Most High over all the earth!
