Psalm 83 – Studienbibel

1 A Song7892 or Psalm4210 of Asaph623. Keep not thou silence1824, O God430: hold not thy peace2790, and be not still8252, O God410.¹ 2 For, lo, thine enemies341 make a tumult1993: and they that hate8130 thee have lifted up5375 the head7218. 3 They have taken crafty6191 counsel5475 against thy people5971, and consulted3289 against thy hidden ones6845. 4 They have said559, Come3212, and let us cut them off3582 from being a nation1471; that the name8034 of Israel3478 may be no more in remembrance2142. 5 For they have consulted3289 together3162 with one consent3820: they are3772 confederate1285 against thee:² 6 The tabernacles168 of Edom123, and the Ishmaelites3459; of Moab4124, and the Hagarenes1905; 7 Gebal1381, and Ammon5983, and Amalek6002; the Philistines6429 with the inhabitants3427 of Tyre6865; 8 Assur804 also is joined3867 with them: they have holpen2220 the children1121 of Lot3876.

9 Do6213 unto them as unto the Midianites4080; as to Sisera5516, as to Jabin2985, at the brook5158 of Kison7028: 10 Which perished8045 at Endor5874: they became as dung1828 for the earth127. 11 Make7896 their nobles5081 like Oreb6159, and like Zeeb2062: yea, all their princes5257 as Zebah2078, and as Zalmunna6759: 12 Who said559, Let us take to ourselves the houses4999 of God430 in possession3423. 13 O my God430, make7896 them like a wheel1534; as the stubble7179 before6440 the wind7307. 14 As the fire784 burneth1197 a wood3293, and as the flame3852 setteth3857 the mountains2022 on fire3857; 15 So persecute7291 them with thy tempest5591, and make them afraid926 with thy storm5492. 16 Fill4390 their faces6440 with shame7036; that they may seek1245 thy name8034, O LORD3068. 17 Let them be confounded954 and troubled926 for ever5703; yea, let them be put to shame2659, and perish6: 18 That men may know3045 that thou, whose name8034 alone is JEHOVAH3068, art the most high5945 over all the earth776.
