1 O God, do not rest silently. Do not keep silent or be still, O God.
2 For look, your enemies roar, and those who hate you have lifted their head.
3 They devise cunning schemes against your people, and consult together against your protected ones.
4 They say, “Come, let us annihilate them from being a nation, so that the name of Israel will be remembered no more.”
5 For they have consulted together with a unified purpose. They have made a covenant against you:
6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites,
7 Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia, with the inhabitants of Tyre.
