Psalm 82 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷

1 A Canticle of Psalm to Asaph.

2 O God who shall be like to thee? Hold not thy peace, neither be thou appeased, o God:

3 for behold thine enemies have made a sound: they that hate thee have lifted up the head.

4 They have taken malignant counsel upon thy people: and they have devised against thy Saints.

5 They have said: Come, and let us destroy them out of the nation: and let the name of Israel be remembered no more.

6 Because they have devised with one consent: they have together made a covenant against thee.

7 The tabernacles of the Idumeians, and the Ismahelites, Moab, and the Agarens.

8 Gebal, and Ammon, Amalec: the foreigners, with the inhabitants of Tyre.

9 Yea and Assur also is come with them: they are made an aid to the children of Lot.

10 Do to them as to Madian, and Sisara: as to Jabin in the torrent Cisson.

11 They perished in Endor: they were made as the dung of the earth.

12 Put their Princes as Oreb, and Zeb, and Zebee, and Salmana. All their Princes:

13 which have said: Let us possess the Sanctuary of God for an inheritance.

14 My God put them as a wheel: and as stubble before the face of the wind.

15 Even as fire that burneth a wood: & as a flame that burneth the mountains.

16 So shalt thou pursue them in thy tempest: and in thy wrath thou shalt trouble them.

17 Fill their faces with ignominy: and they will seek thy name, o Lord.

18 Let them be ashamed, and troubled for ever and ever: and let them be confounded, and perish.

19 And let them know that Lord is thy name, thou only the Highest in all the earth.
