A Prayer For Judgment Against God’s Enemies
1   Keep not silence, O God: hold not your peace, and be not still, O God.
2   For, lo, your enemies make a tumult: and they that hate you have lifted up the head.
3   They have taken crafty counsel against your people, and consulted against your 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 make a covenant against you:
6   The   tabernacles   of   Edom,   and   the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagrites;
7   Gebal,  and  Ammon,  and  Amalek;  the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8   Assyria also is joined with them: they have helped the children of Lot. Selah.
9   Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kishon:
10   Who perished at Endor: they became as refuse 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 burns wood, and as the flame sets the mountains on fire;
15   So persecute them with your tempest, and make them afraid with your storm.
16   Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek your name, O LORD.
17   Let them be confounded and troubled forever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
18   That men may know that you, whose name alone is the LORD, are the most high over all the earth.
