TEHILLIM 83

1 (Shir. Mizmor of Asaph)
2 Keep not Thou silent, O Elohim; hold not Thy peace, and be not still, O El (G-d).
3 For, hinei, Thine oyevim are in tumult; and they that hate Thee have lifted up the rosh.
4 They lay out a crafty conspiracy against Amecha (Thy people), and plot against Tzefunecha (Thy sheltered, protected, hidden ones).
5 They have said: Come, and let us cut them off from being a goy (nation); that the shem Yisroel may be no more remembered.
6 For they have plotted together with one lev; they cut a brit against Thee;
7 The ohalim Edom, and the Yishm'elim; of Moav, and the Hagerim;
8 Geval, and Ammon, and Amalek; Peleshet (Philistia) with the inhabitants of Tzor;

11 Which became shmad at Ein-Dor; they became like domen (dung, fertilizer) for ha'adamah.

13 Who said, Let us take possession for ourselves of the pasturelands of Elohim.
14 O Elohai, make them like galgal (tumbleweed); like chaff before the ruach (wind).
15 As the eish consumeth the forest, and as the flame setteth ablaze harim;
16 So pursue them with Thy sa'ar (tempest, storm), and make them afraid with Thy storm.
17 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek Shimcha, Hashem.
18 Let them be put to shame and dismayed adei ad (forever); yes, let them perish in disgrace;
19 Let them have da'as that Thou alone, Shimcha Hashem, art Elyon al kol HaAretz.
