## O God, Do Not Be Quiet
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 1
|
||
|
|
O God, do not remain at rest; Do not be silent and, O God, do not be quiet.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 2
|
||
|
|
For behold, Your enemies roar, And those who hate You have lifted up their heads.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 3
|
||
|
|
They make shrewd plans against Your people, And conspire together against Your treasured ones.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 4
|
||
|
|
They have said, "Come, and let us wipe them out as a nation, That the name of Israel be remembered no more."
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 5
|
||
|
|
For they have conspired together with one heart; Against You they cut a covenant:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 6
|
||
|
|
The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 7
|
||
|
|
Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 8
|
||
|
|
Assyria also has joined with them; They have become the power of the children of Lot. Selah.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 9
|
||
|
|
Do to them as to Midian, As to Sisera, _and_ Jabin at the river of Kishon,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 10
|
||
|
|
Who were destroyed at En-dor, Who were as dung for the ground.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 11
|
||
|
|
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb And all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 12
|
||
|
|
Who said, "Let us possess for ourselves The pastures of God."
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 13
|
||
|
|
O my God, make them like the whirling dust, Like chaff before the wind.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 14
|
||
|
|
Like fire that burns the forest And like a flame that burns up the mountains,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 15
|
||
|
|
So pursue them with Your tempest And dismay them with Your storm.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 16
|
||
|
|
Fill their faces with disgrace, That they may seek Your name, O Yahweh.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 17
|
||
|
|
Let them be ashamed and dismayed forever, And let them be humiliated and perish,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 18
|
||
|
|
That they may know that You alone--Your name is Yahweh-- Are the Most High over all the earth.
