Psalms 83:1-6

Psalm 83

1

A song. A psalm of Asaph.

1 God, don't be silent! Don't be quiet or sit still, God,
2 because—look!—your enemies are growling; those who hate you are acting arrogantly.
3 They concoct crafty plans against your own people; they plot against the people you favor.
4 "Come on," they say, "let's wipe them out as a nation! Let the name Israel be remembered no more!"
5 They plot with a single-minded heart; they make a covenant against you.
6 They are the clans of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites,
