4. They say, “Let's wipe outthe nation of Israeland make sure that no oneremembers its name!”

6. Edom and the Ishmaelites;Moab and the Hagrites;
7. Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek;Philistia and Phoenicia.
8. Even Assyria has joined forceswith Moab and Ammon.

13. Our God, scatter them aroundlike dust in a whirlwind.
