Psalms 83

The Message Bible MSG

1 God, don't shut me out; don't give me the silent treatment, O God.

2 Your enemies are out there whooping it up, the God-haters are living it up;

3 They're plotting to do your people in, conspiring to rob you of your precious ones.

4 "Let's wipe this nation from the face of the earth," they say; "scratch Israel's name off the books."

5 And now they're putting their heads together, making plans to get rid of you.

6 Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites,

7 Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia and the Tyrians,

8 And now Assyria has joined up, Giving muscle to the gang of Lot.

9 Do to them what you did to Midian, to Sisera and Jabin at Kishon Brook;

10 They came to a bad end at Endor, nothing but dung for the garden.

11 Cut down their leaders as you did Oreb and Zeeb, their princes to nothings like Zebah and Zalmunna,

12 With their empty brags, "We're grabbing it all, grabbing God's gardens for ourselves."

13 My God! I've had it with them! Blow them away! Tumbleweeds in the desert waste,

14 charred sticks in the burned-over ground.

15 Knock the breath right out of them, so they're gasping

16 for breath, gasping, "God."

17 Bring them to the end of their rope, and leave them there dangling, helpless.

18 Then they'll learn your name: "God," the one and only High God on earth.

King James Version KJV

1 Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.

2 For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.

3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.

4 They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.

5 For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:

6 The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;

7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;

8 Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.

9 Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:

10 Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.

11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:

12 Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.

13 O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.

14 As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;

15 So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.

16 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.

17 Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:

18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.
