Panalangin Upang Matalo ang mga Kalaban

Awit ni Asaf.

83 Huwag kang manahimik, O Diyos, huwag kang magpabaya, ikaw ay kumilos.
Hayun! Ang kaaway nagsisipag-alsa,
    at ang namumuhi'y kinakalaban ka.
Sila'y nagbabalak laban sa hinirang,
    laban sa lahat ng iyong iningatan.
Ganito ang sabi, “Ating papawiin, ang kanilang bansa'y ating lilipulin;
    upang ang Israel, malimutan na rin!”

Nagkakaisang lahat, sila ay nagplano,
    kanilang pasya ay lumaban sa iyo.
Ang lahi ni Edom at ang Ismaelita,
    Moab at Agarenos lahat nagkaisa.
Ang Gebal at Ammon gayon din ang pasya,
    Amalek at Tiro at ang Filistia.
Pati ang Asiria'y nakipagsabwatan,
    sa lahi ni Lot, nakipagtulungan. (Selah)[a]

Mga(A) bansang ito'y iyong parusahan, tulad ng parusang ginawa sa Midian,
    kay Jabi't Siserang nalupig sa laban nang sa Ilog Kison, buhay winakasan.
10 Pinatay lahat at ang hukbo'y nawasak,
    sa Endor, ang bangkay nila ay nagkalat.
11 Yaong(B) mga bantog nilang punong-kawal, kay Oreb at Zeeb iparis ang buhay.
    Lupigin mong lahat ang pinuno nila tulad ng sinapit ni Zeba't Zalmuna,
12 sila ang nagsabing, “Ang pastulan ng Diyos
    ay ating kamkami't maging ating lubos.”

13 Ikalat mo silang parang alikabok,
    tulad ng dayami na tangay ng unos.
14 Tulad ng pagtupok ng apoy sa gubat,
    nang ang kaburula'y kubkob na ng ningas,
15 gayon mo habulin ng bagyong malakas,
    ito ang gawin mo't nang sila'y masindak.
16 Mga taong yaon sana'y hiyain mo,
    upang matutong maglingkod sa iyo.
17 Lupigin mo sila't takuting lubusan,
    lubos mong hiyain hanggang sa mamatay.
18 Sana ikaw, Yahweh, kanilang mabatid,
    ang tangi't dakilang hari ng daigdig!

  1. Mga Awit 83:8 SELAH: Tingnan ang Awit 3:2.

God Implored to Confound His Enemies.

A Song. A Psalm of Asaph.

83 Do not keep silent, O God;
Do not hold Your peace or be still, O God.

For behold, Your enemies are in tumult,
And those who hate You have raised their heads [in hatred of You].(A)

They concoct crafty schemes against Your people,
And conspire together against Your hidden and precious ones.

They have said, “Come, and let us wipe them out as a nation;
Let the name of Israel be remembered no more.”

For they have conspired together with one mind;
Against You they make a covenant—

The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,
Of Moab and the Hagrites,

Gebal and Ammon and Amalek,
Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre.

Assyria also has joined with them;
They have helped the children of Lot [the Ammonites and the Moabites] and have been an arm [of strength] to them. Selah.


Deal with them as [You did] with Midian,
As with Sisera and Jabin at the brook of Kishon,(B)
10 
Who were destroyed at En-dor,
Who became like dung for the earth.
11 
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb
And all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,(C)
12 
Who said, “Let us possess for ourselves
The pastures of God.”

13 
O my God, make them like [a]whirling dust,
Like chaff before the wind [worthless and without substance].
14 
Like fire consumes the forest,
And like the flame sets the mountains on fire,
15 
So pursue them with Your tempest
And terrify them with [the violence of] Your storm.
16 
Fill their faces with shame and disgrace,
That they may [persistently] seek Your name, O Lord.
17 
Let them be ashamed and dismayed forever;
Yes, let them be humiliated and perish,
18 
That they may know that You alone, whose name is the Lord,
Are the Most High over all the earth.
