 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.
