| 1 | A canticle of a psalm for Asaph. |
| 2 | O God, who shall be like to thee? hold not thy peace, neither be thou still, O God. |
| 3 | For lo, thy enemies have made a noise: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head. |
| 4 | They have taken a malicious counsel against thy people, and have consulted against thy saints. |
| 5 | They have said: Come and let us destroy them, so that they be not a nation: and let the name of Israel be remembered no more. |
| 6 | For they have contrived with one consent: they have made a covenant together against thee, |
| 7 | The tabernacles of the Edomites, and the Ismahelites: Moab, and the Agarens, |
| 8 | Gebal, and Ammon and Amalec: the Philistines, with the inhabitants of Tyre. |
| 9 | Yea, and the Assyrian also is joined with them: they are come to the aid of the sons of Lot. |
| 10 | Do to them as thou didst to Madian and to Sisara: as to Jabin at the brook of Cisson. |
| 11 | Who perished at Endor: and became as dung for the earth. |
| 12 | Make their princes like Oreb, and Zeb, and Zebee, and Salmana. All their princes, |
| 13 | Who have said: Let us possess the sanctuary of God for an inheritance. |
| 14 | O my God, make them like a wheel; and as stubble before the wind. |
| 15 | As fire which burneth the wood: and as a flame burning mountains: |
| 16 | So shalt thou pursue them with thy tempest: and shalt trouble them in thy wrath. |
| 17 | Fill their faces with shame; and they shall seek thy name, O Lord. |
| 18 | Let them be ashamed and troubled for ever and ever: and let them be confounded and perish. |
| 19 | And let them know that the Lord is thy name: thou alone art the most High over all the earth. |
