A psalm song for Asaph

O God, who will be likened to you? Do not be silent, nor be calm, O God.

For behold, your enemies have made a noise, and those hating you have lifted up the head.

Against your people they have devised a crafty plan, and they have plotted against your holy ones.

They said, Come, and let us destroy them from being a nation, and the name of Israel shall surely no longer be remembered.

For they took counsel together with one accord; against you they made a covenant.

the tents of the Idumeans and the Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagarenes

Gebal and Ammon and Amalek and the Philistines with those who dwell in Tyre

For indeed Asshur also came with them; they became a help to the sons of Lot. Selah

Do to them as to Midian and to Sisera, as to Jabin at the brook Kishon

They were destroyed at Endor; they became as dung for the earth.

Make their princes like Oreb and Zeeb and Zebee and Salmana, all their princes

Who said, Let us inherit for ourselves the sanctuary of God

O my God, make them like a wheel, like straw before the wind

As fire which will burn up a forest, as a flame might set mountains ablaze

So you will pursue them in your storm, and in your wrath you will trouble them

Fill their faces with dishonor, and they will seek your name, O Lord

Let them be put to shame and let them be troubled forever and ever, and let them be turned back and let them perish

And let them know that your name is Lord, you alone are Most High over all the earth
