Chapter 83

1A song, a psalm of Asaf.

SHIR miz-MOR l'-a-SAF

אשִׁ֖יר מִזְמ֣וֹר לְאָסָֽף׃

2O Hashem, do not be silent; do not hold aloof; do not be quiet, O Hashem!

E-lo-HIM al do-MI-la-KHE, al te-KHE-rash v'-al tish-KOT EL.

באֱלֹהִ֥ים אַל־דֳּמִי־לָ֑ךְ אַל־תֶּחֱרַ֖שׁ וְאַל־תִּשְׁקֹ֣ט אֵֽל׃

3For Your enemies rage, Your foes assert themselves.

ki-hi-NEH o-y'-ve-KHA ye-he-MA-yun u-m'-sa-ne-E-kha na-s'-U rosh

גכִּֽי־הִנֵּ֣ה א֭וֹיְבֶיךָ יֶהֱמָי֑וּן וּ֝מְשַׂנְאֶ֗יךָ נָ֣שְׂאוּ רֹֽאשׁ׃

4They plot craftily against Your people, take counsel against Your treasured ones.

al-a-m'-KHA ya-a-REE-mu SOD v'-yi-t'-ya-a-TZU al-tz'-fu-NE-kha

דעַֽל־עַ֭מְּךָ יַעֲרִ֣ימוּ ס֑וֹד וְ֝יִתְיָעֲצ֗וּ עַל־צְפוּנֶֽיךָ׃

5They say, “Let us wipe them out as a nation; Yisrael's name will be mentioned no more.”

6Unanimous in their counsel they have made an alliance against You—

ki no-a-TZU lev ya-kha-DAV a-LE-kha b'-REET yikh-ro-TOU

וכִּ֤י נוֹעֲצ֣וּ לֵ֣ב יַחְדָּ֑ו עָ֝לֶ֗יךָ בְּרִ֣ית יִכְרֹֽתוּ׃

זאׇהֳלֵ֣י אֱ֭דוֹם וְיִשְׁמְעֵאלִ֗ים מוֹאָ֥ב וְהַגְרִֽים׃

8Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;

9Assyria too joins forces with them; they give support to the sons of Lot. Selah.

10Deal with them as You did with Midian, with Sisera, with Jabin, at the brook Kishon—

11who were destroyed at En-dor, who became dung for the field.

12Treat their great men like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,

13who said, “Let us take the meadows of Hashem as our possession.”

14O my God, make them like thistledown, like stubble driven by the wind.

16pursue them with Your tempest, terrify them with Your storm.

17Cover their faces with shame so that they seek Your name, Hashem.

18May they be frustrated and terrified, disgraced and doomed forever.

19May they know that Your name, Yours alone, is Hashem, supreme over all the earth.
