CHAP. LXXXIII.
1 A complaint to God of the enemies conspiracies. 9 A prayer against them that oppresse the Church.
2 For loe, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee, haue lift vp the head.
3 They haue taken craftie counsell against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
5 For they haue consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee.5
6 The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites: of Moab, and the Hagarens.
7 Gebal and Ammon, and Amalek: the Philistines, with the inhabitants of Tyre.
8 Assur also is ioyned with them: they haue holpen the children of Lot. Selah.8
9 Doe vnto them as vnto the Midianites: as to Sisera, as to Iabin, at the brooke of Kison:9
10 Which perished at En-dor: they became as dung for the earth.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:11
12 Who sayd, Let vs take to our selues, the houses of God in possession.
13 O my God, make them like a wheele: as the stubble before the wind.
14 As the fire burneth a wood: and as the flame setteth the mountaines on fire:
15 So persecute them with thy tempest: and make them afraid with thy storme.
16 Fill their faces with shame: that they may seeke thy name, O Lord.
17 Let them be confounded and troubled for euer: yea let them be put to shame, and perish:
18 That men may knowe, that thou, whose name alone is IEHOVAH: art the most High ouer all the earth.
