Old Testament

New Testament

Psalms 83 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

One of Asaph’s songs of praise.

1. God, don’t keep quiet! Don’t close your ears! Please say something, God.

2. Your enemies are getting ready to do something. Those who hate you will soon attack.

3. They are making secret plans against your people. Your enemies are discussing plans against the people you love.

4. They say, “Come, let us destroy them completely. Then no one will ever again remember the name Israel.”

5. God, they have all joined together. They have united against you.

6-7. Their army includes the Edomites, Ishmaelites, Moabites, and Hagar’s descendants, the people of Byblos, Ammon, and Amalek, the Philistines, and the people of Tyre.

8. Even the Assyrians have joined them. They have made Lot’s descendants very powerful. Selah

9. God, defeat them just as you defeated Midian. Do what you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River.

10. You destroyed the enemy at Endor, and their bodies rotted on the ground.

11. Punish their leaders as you did Oreb and Zeeb. Do what you did to Zebah and Zalmunna.

12. They said, “Let’s make this land our own— these fields of grass that belong to God!”

13. Make them like weeds blown by the wind. Scatter them the way wind scatters straw.

14. Be like a fire that destroys a forest or like a flame that sets the hills on fire.

15. Chase them away with your blasts of wind; frighten them with your storms.

16. Lord, cover them with shame until they come to you for help.

17. May they be forever ashamed and afraid. Disgrace and defeat them.
