| [1]A Song, a Psalm of Asaph. |
[1] Holde not thy tongue O Lorde: kepe not styll scilence, refraine not thy selfe O Lorde |
| [2]O God, keep not Thou silence; hold not Thy peace, and be not still, O God. |
[2]For beholde, thyne enemies make an vprore: and they that hate thee, haue lifted vp their head |
| [3]For, lo, Thine enemies are in an uproar; and they that hate Thee have lifted up the head. |
[3]They haue deuised shrewde counsell against thy people: and they haue consulted against thyne, whom thou defendest |
| [4]They hold crafty converse against Thy people, and take counsel against Thy treasured ones. |
[4]They haue said, come, and let vs roote them out, that they be no more a people: and that the name of Israel may be no more in remembraunce |
| [5]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 haue conspired all in one minde: & are confederate against thee |
| [6]For they have consulted together with one consent; against Thee do they make covenant; |
[6]The pauilions of Edom and the Ismaelites: of Moab, and Hagerites |
| [7]The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites; |
[7]Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalec: the Philistines with the inhabitauntes of Tyre |
| [8]Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre; |
[8]Assur also is ioyned vnto them: they were a great ayde to the chyldren of Lot. Selah |
| [9]Assyria also is joined with them; they have been an arm to the children of Lot. Selah |
[9]But do thou vnto them, as vnto Midian: as vnto Sisera, as vnto Iabin at the brooke Kishon |
| [10]Do Thou unto them as unto Midian; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook Kishon; |
[10]Whiche perished at Ein Dor: and became as the doung of the earth |
| [11]Who were destroyed at En-dor; they became as dung for the earth. |
[11]Make them, their princes, [and] al their captaynes: lyke Oreb, and lyke Zeeb, and lyke Salmunna |
| [12]Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, and like Zebah and Zalmunna all their princes; |
[12]Whiche sayd, let vs take to our selues: the houses of God in possession |
| [13]Who said: 'Let us take to ourselves in possession the habitations of God.' |
[13]O my Lorde, make them lyke vnto a wheele: and as chaffe before the winde |
| [14]O my God, make them like the whirling dust; as stubble before the wind. |
[14]Lyke as a fire that burneth vp the wood: and as the flambe that consumeth the mountaynes |
| [15]As the fire that burneth the forest, and as the flame that setteth the mountains ablaze; |
[15]Persecute them euen so with thy tempest: and make them afrayde with thy storme |
| [16]So pursue them with Thy tempest, and affright them with Thy storm. |
[16]Make shame to appeare in their faces: that they may seeke thy name O God |
| [17]Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek Thy name, O 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇. |
[17]Let them be confounded and astonied with feare euer more & more: let them be put to shame, and perishe |
| [18]Let them be ashamed and affrighted for ever; yea, let them be abashed and perish; |
[18]And let them knowe that thou in thy name God eternall art only: O thou the most highest ouer all the earth |
| [19]That they may know that it is Thou alone whose name is 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, the Most High over all the earth. |
