| A Song or Psalm of Asaph. |
|
| |
|
| 1 Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God. |
|
| 2 For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head. |
|
| 3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones. |
|
| 4 They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. |
|
| 5 For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee: |
|
| 6 The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes; |
|
| 7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre; |
|
| 8 Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah. |
|
| |
|
| 9 Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison: |
|
| 10 Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth. |
|
| 11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
|
|
| 12 Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession. |
|
| 13 O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind. |
|
| 14 As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire; |
|
| 15 So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm. |
|
| 16 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD. |
|
| 17 Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish: |
|
| 18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth. |
Alone is JEHOVAH – This title belongs only to the Father. E65, E66, E47; R379:5
The distinctive personal name of the Almighty Father, never applied to any other being. R1410:6
