Psalms 82
[1] God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.
[2] How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked?
Selah.
[3] Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy. [4]
Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked. [5] They
know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the
foundations of the earth are out of course. [6] I have said, Ye are gods; and
all of you are children of the most High. [7] But ye shall die like men, and
fall like one of the princes. [8] Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou
shalt inherit all nations.
Psalms 83
[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.
Psalms 84
[1] How amiable are thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts! [2] My soul longeth,
yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth
out for the living God. [3] Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the
swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O
LORD of hosts, my King, and my God.
[4] Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising
thee. Selah.
[5] Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways
of them.
[6] Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also
filleth the pools.
[7] They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth
before God.
[8] O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah. [9]
Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed. [10] For a
day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in
the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness. [11] For the
LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good
thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. [12] O LORD of hosts,
blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
