- 1. ¶ O GOD, who is like unto thee? Hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God;
- 2. For, lo, thine enemies are raging and they that hate thee have lifted up the head against thy people.
- 3. They have taken crafty counsel, and consulted against thy chosen ones.
- 4. They have said, Come, let us destroy them from among the nations, that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
- 5. For they have agreed with one heart; they have made alliance against thee:
- 6. The tabernacles of Edom and the Ishmaelites; of Moab and the Gadarenes;
- 7. The people of the region of Ammon and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
- 8. The Assyrians have also joined with them; they have helped the children of Lot.
- 9. ¶ Do to them as to the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the valley of Kishon;
- 10. Which perished at Endor; they became as manure for the earth.
- 11. Destroy their nobles like Oreb and like Zeeb; yea, all their princes as Zebah and as Zalmunna;
- 12. For they said, Let us inherit for ourselves the city of God.
- 13. O God, make them like a turning wheel; and like stubble before the wind.
- 14. As the fire burns a forest and as the flame sets the mountains on fire;
- 15. So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
- 16. Fill their faces with shame, that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
- 17. Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish,
- 18. That men may know that thou, whose name alone is the LORD, art the most high over all the earth.
