|
|
\q

|
|

|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 3 They conspire against your people
|
|
\q and plan together against your protected ones.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 4 They have said, "Come, and let us destroy them as a nation.
|
|
\q Then the name of Israel will no longer be remembered."
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 5 They have schemed together with one strategy;
|
|
\q against you they have made an alliance.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 6 This includes the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,

\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 9 Do to them as you did to Midian,
|
|
\q as you did to Sisera and to Jabin at the Kishon River.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 10 They perished at Endor
|
|
\q and became like manure for the earth.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb,
|
|
\q and all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 12 They said, "Let us take for ourselves
|
|
\q the pastures of God."
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 13 My God, make them like the whirling dust,
|
|
\q like chaff before the wind,
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 14 like the fire that burns the forest,
|
|
\q and like the flame that sets the mountains on fire.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 15 Chase them with your strong wind,
|
|
\q and terrify them with your windstorm.
|
|
|
|
\s5

\v 16 Fill their faces with shame
|
|
\q so that they might seek your name, Yahweh.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 17 May they be put to shame and be terrified forever;
|
|
\q may they perish in disgrace.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 18 Then they will know that you alone, Yahweh,
|
|
\q are the Most High over all the earth.
