Psalms 83

Psalms 83:3

And consulted against thy hidden ones.

They have laid their heads together, and consulted, how they may root out thy holy seed; those, whom thou hast in thy secret counsel chosen for thy own, and whom thou hast taken upon thee to protect.

Psalms 83:6

The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;

Those of the posterity of Esan and Ishmael, and of Lot and Hagar, which ought, in regard of nearness of blood, to favour and join with the other issue of Abraham and Jacob, they do yet conspire altogether against them, &c.

Psalms 83:9

Do thou unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:

Do thou utterly defeat and destroy them, as thou didst the Midianites and their five kings; as thou didst Sisera, the general of Jabin’s host, and his strong army, at the brook and valley of Kison:

Psalms 83:10

Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.

Which perished in the plains of the city Endor, near to that famous river of Kison; and left their carcasses upon the earth, for a prey to the fowls, and compost to the soil.

Psalms 83:11

Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zahmunna.

Make their princes and nobles, like unto those princes of the Midianites, which Gideon pursued and slew.

Psalms 83:13

O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.

Do thou whirl them away, and all their projects and attempts, and scatter them as stubble before the wind.
