Psalms 83

1 A song. A Psalm by Asaph. God, don’t keep silent. Don’t keep silent, and don’t be still, God.

ᾠδὴ ψαλμοῦ τῷ Ασαφ ὁ θεός τίς ὁμοιωθήσεταί σοι μὴ σιγήσῃς μηδὲ καταπραΰνῃς ὁ θεός

2 For, behold, your enemies are stirred up. Those who hate you have lifted up their heads.

ὅτι ἰδοὺ οἱ ἐχθροί σου ἤχησαν καὶ οἱ μισοῦντές σε ἦραν κεφαλήν

3 They conspire with cunning against your people. They plot against your cherished ones.

ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν σου κατεπανουργεύσαντο γνώμην καὶ ἐβουλεύσαντο κατὰ τῶν ἁγίων σου

4 “Come,” they say, “let’s destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”

εἶπαν δεῦτε καὶ ἐξολεθρεύσωμεν αὐτοὺς ἐξ ἔθνους καὶ οὐ μὴ μνησθῇ τὸ ὄνομα Ισραηλ ἔτι

5 For they have conspired together with one mind. They form an alliance against you.

ὅτι ἐβουλεύσαντο ἐν ὁμονοίᾳ ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό κατὰ σοῦ διαθήκην διέθεντο

6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites;

τὰ σκηνώματα τῶν Ιδουμαίων καὶ οἱ Ισμαηλῖται Μωαβ καὶ οἱ Αγαρηνοί

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

Γεβαλ καὶ Αμμων καὶ Αμαληκ καὶ ἀλλόφυλοι μετὰ τῶν κατοικούντων Τύρον

8 Assyria also is joined with them. They have helped the children of Lot. (Selah)

καὶ γὰρ καὶ Ασσουρ συμπαρεγένετο μετ’ αὐτῶν ἐγενήθησαν εἰς ἀντίλημψιν τοῖς υἱοῖς Λωτ διάψαλμα

9 Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon;

ποίησον αὐτοῖς ὡς τῇ Μαδιαμ καὶ τῷ Σισαρα ὡς ὁ Ιαβιν ἐν τῷ χειμάρρῳ Κισων

10 who perished at Endor, who became as dung for the earth.

ἐξωλεθρεύθησαν ἐν Αενδωρ ἐγενήθησαν ὡσεὶ κόπρος τῇ γῇ

11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,

θοῦ τοὺς ἄρχοντας αὐτῶν ὡς τὸν Ωρηβ καὶ Ζηβ καὶ Ζεβεε καὶ Σαλμανα πάντας τοὺς ἄρχοντας αὐτῶν

12 who said, “Let’s take possession of God’s pasture lands.”

οἵτινες εἶπαν κληρονομήσωμεν ἑαυτοῖς τὸ ἁγιαστήριον τοῦ θεοῦ

13 My God, make them like tumbleweed, like chaff before the wind.

ὁ θεός μου θοῦ αὐτοὺς ὡς τροχόν ὡς καλάμην κατὰ πρόσωπον ἀνέμου

14 As the fire that burns the forest, as the flame that sets the mountains on fire,

ὡσεὶ πῦρ ὃ διαφλέξει δρυμόν ὡς εἰ φλὸξ κατακαύσαι ὄρη

15 so pursue them with your tempest, and terrify them with your storm.

οὕτως καταδιώξεις αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ καταιγίδι σου καὶ ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ σου ταράξεις αὐτούς

16 Fill their faces with confusion, that they may seek your name, Yahweh.

πλήρωσον τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν ἀτιμίας καὶ ζητήσουσιν τὸ ὄνομά σου κύριε

17 Let them be disappointed and dismayed forever. Yes, let them be confounded and perish;

αἰσχυνθήτωσαν καὶ ταραχθήτωσαν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος καὶ ἐντραπήτωσαν καὶ ἀπολέσθωσαν

18 that they may know that you alone, whose name is Yahweh, are the Most High over all the earth.

καὶ γνώτωσαν ὅτι ὄνομά σοι κύριος σὺ μόνος ὕψιστος ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν
