Psalmorum 83
1 Canticum Psalmi Asaph. Deus, quis similis erit tibi? ne taceas, neque compescaris Deus:
A Canticle Psalm of Asaph. O God, who will ever be like you? Do not be silent, and do not be unmoved, O God.
2 Quoniam ecce inimici tui sonuerunt: et qui oderunt te, extulerunt caput.
For behold, your enemies have sounded off, and those who hate you have carried out a head.
3 Super populum tuum malignaverunt consilium: et cogitaverunt adversus sanctos tuos.
They have acted with malice in counsel over your people, and they have plotted against your holy ones.
4 Dixerunt: Venite, et disperdamus eos de gente: et non memoretur nomen Israel ultra.
They have said, “Come, let us scatter them from the nations and not allow the name of Israel to be remembered any longer.”
5 Quoniam cogitaverunt unanimiter: simul adversum te testamentum disposuerunt,
For they plotted unanimously. Joined together against you, they ordained a covenant:
6 tabernacula Idumæorum et Ismahelitæ: Moab, et Agareni,
the tabernacle of Edomites and Ishmaelites, and Moab and the Hagarites,
7 Gebal, et Ammon, et Amalec: alienigenæ cum habitantibus Tyrum.
and Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, the foreigners among the inhabitants of Tyre.
8 Etenim Assur venit cum illis: facti sunt in adiutorium filiis Lot.
For even Assur comes with them. They have become the helpers of the sons of Lot.
9 Fac illis sicut Madian et Sisaræ: sicut Iabin in torrente Cisson.
Do to them as you did to Midian and Sisera, just as to Jabin at the torrent of Kishon.
10 Disperierunt in Endor: facti sunt ut stercus terræ.
They perished at Endor, and they became like the dung of the earth.
11 Pone principes eorum sicut Oreb, et Zeb, et Zebee, et Salmana: Omnes principes eorum:
Set their leaders to be like Oreb and Zeeb, and Zebah and Zalmunna: all their leaders
12 qui dixerunt: Hereditate possideamus Sanctuarium Dei.
who said, “Let us possess the Sanctuary of God for an inheritance.”
13 Deus meus pone illos ut rotam: et sicut stipulam ante faciem venti.
My God, set them like a wheel, and like stubble before the face of the wind.
14 Sicut ignis, qui comburit silvam: et sicut flamma comburens montes:
Set them like a fire burning up the forest, and like a flame burning up the mountains.
15 Ita persequeris illos in tempestate tua: et in ira tua turbabis eos.
So will you pursue them in your tempest, and disturb them in your wrath.
16 Imple facies eorum ignominia: et quærent nomen tuum, Domine.
Fill their faces with shame, and they will seek your name, O Lord.
17 Erubescant, et conturbentur in sæculum sæculi: et confundantur, et pereant.
Let them be ashamed and troubled, from age to age, and let them be confounded and perish.
18 Et cognoscant quia nomen tibi Dominus: tu solus Altissimus in omni terra.
And let them know that the Lord is your name. You alone are the Most High in all the earth.
