Psalm 83: Keep not, O God, we thee entreat
Hymnal: Scottish Psalter and Paraphrases #P89 (1800) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Keep not, O God, we thee entreat Lyrics:
1Keep not, O God, we thee entreat,
O keep not silence now:
Do thou not hold thy peace, O God,
and still no more be thou.
2For, lo, thine enemies a noise
tumultuously have made;
And they that haters are of thee
have lifted up the head.
3Against thy chosen people they
do crafty counsel take;
And they against thy hidden ones
do consultations make.
4Come, let us cut them off, said they,
from being a nation,
That of the name of Isr’el may
no more be mention.
5For with joint heart they plot, in league
against thee they combine.
6The tents of Edom, Ishm’elites,
Moab’s and Hagar’s line;
7Gebal, and Ammon, Amalek,
Philistines, those of Tyre;
8And Assur join’d with them, to help
Lot’s children they conspire.
9Do to them as to Midian,
Jabin at Kison strand;
10And Sis’ra, which at En-dor fell,
as dung to fat the land.
11Like Oreb and like Zeeb make
their noble men to fall;
Like Zeba and Zalmunna like,
make thou their princes all;
12Who said, For our possession
let us God’s houses take.
13My God, them like a wheel, as chaff
before the wind, them make.
14As fire consumes the wood, as flame
doth mountains set on fire,
15Chase and affright them with the storm
and tempest of thine ire.
16Their faces fill with shame, O Lord,
that they may seek thy name.
17Let them confounded be, and vex’d,
and perish in their shame:
18That men may know that thou, to whom
alone doth appertain
The name Jehovah, dost most high
o’er all the earth remain.

Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #P83 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Keep not, O God, we thee entreat,
O keep not silence now:
no longer hold thy peace, O God,
at rest no more be thou.
2 For, lo, thine enemies a noise
tumultuously have made;
and they that haters are of thee
have lifted up the head.
3 Against thy chosen people they
do crafty counsel take;
and they against thy hidden ones
do consultations make.
4 Come, let us cut them off, said they,
no nation let them be;
nor let the name of Israel
be held in memory.
5 For with joint heart they plot, in league
against thee they combine:
6 the tents of Edom, Ishmaelites,
Moab’s and Hagar’s line;
7 Gebal, and Ammon, Amalek,
Philistines, those of Tyre;

their noble men to fall;
to Zeba and Zalmunna like,
make thou their princes all;
12 Who said, For our possession
God’s dwellings let us take;
13 like stubble whirled before the blast,
my God, do thou them make.
14 As fire consumes the wood, as flame
doth mountains set on fire,
15 chase and affright them with the storm
and tempest of thine ire.
16 Their faces fill with shame, O Lord,
that they may seek thy name.
17 Let them confounded be and vexed,
