1 O God, do not remain silent; do not turn a deaf ear, do not stand aloof, O God.

2 For look, your enemies roar, and those who hate you have lifted [their] head.

2 See how your enemies growl, how your foes rear their heads.

5 With one mind they plot together; they form an alliance against you—

9 Do to them as [you did with] Midian, as [with] Sisera, as [with] Jabin at the wadi of Kishon.

12 who said, "Let us take [as] our possession the pastures of God."

13 O my God, make them like the tumbleweed, like the chaff before wind.

14 As fire burns a forest, and as a flame sets afire mountains,

14 As fire consumes the forest or a flame sets the mountains ablaze,

15 so pursue them with your tempest and terrify them with your storm.

16 Fill their faces with shame, that they may seek your name, O Yahweh.

16 Cover their faces with shame, LORD, so that they will seek your name.

17 Let them be ashamed and terrified forever, and let them be humiliated and perish

17 May they ever be ashamed and dismayed; may they perish in disgrace.

18 that they may know that you, [whose] name [is] Yahweh, you alone, [are the] Most High over the whole earth.

18 Let them know that you, whose name is the LORD— that you alone are the Most High over all the earth.
