ਜ਼ਬੂਰ 83
God, do not continue to be silent! Do not be quiet and say nothing,
because your enemies are rioting against you; those who hate you are rebelling against you!
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.
4 ੪ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਆਖਿਆ, ਆਓ ਅਸੀਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਕੌਮ ਹੋਣ ਤੋਂ ਮਿਟਾ ਦੇਈਏ, ਤਾਂ ਜੋ ਇਸਰਾਏਲ ਦਾ ਨਿਆਂ ਫੇਰ ਚੇਤੇ ਨਾ ਆਵੇ!
They say, “Come, we must destroy their nation, with the result that no one will remember that Israel ever existed!”
They have agreed on [what they want to do to destroy Israel], and they have formed an alliance against you.
[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],
Gebal [people-group], the Ammon [people-group], the Amalek [people-group], the Philistia [people-group], and the people of Tyre [city].
[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.
9 ੯ ਤੂੰ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨਾਲ ਇਹੋ ਜਿਹਾ ਕਰ ਜਿਹੋ ਜਿਹਾ ਤੂੰ ਮਿਦਯਾਨ ਦੇਸ, ਅਤੇ ਸੀਸਰਾ ਅਤੇ ਕੀਸ਼ੋਨ ਨਦੀ ਕੋਲ ਯਾਬੀਨ ਨਾਲ ਕੀਤਾ!
[God], do to those people things like you did to the Midian [people-group], like [you did] to Sisera and Jabin at Kishon River.
You destroyed them at Endor [town], and their corpses [lay on] the ground and decayed.
11 ੧੧ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਪਤਵੰਤਿਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਓਰੇਬ ਅਤੇ ਜ਼ਏਬ ਵਾਂਗੂੰ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਸਾਰੇ ਸ਼ਹਿਜ਼ਾਦਿਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਜ਼ਬਾਹ ਅਤੇ ਸਲਮੁੰਨਾ ਵਾਂਗੂੰ ਕਰ,
Do to them things like you did to [Kings] Oreb and Zeeb; defeat their leaders like you defeated Zebah and Zalmunna,
who said, “We will take for ourselves the land that [the Israelis say] belongs to God!”
My God, cause them [to disappear quickly] like whirling dust, like chaff that the wind blows away!
Like a fire completely burns a forest and like flames burn in the mountains,
expel them by sending storms; cause them to be terrified by your big storms/hurricanes!
Cause them [SYN] to be very ashamed in order that they will admit that you are very powerful.
Cause them to be forever disgraced [because of being defeated], and cause them to die while they are still disgraced.
Cause them to know that you, whose name is Yahweh, are the supreme ruler over everything on the earth.
