Psalm 83:2

Prayer Against Enemies

¹ [A Psalm or Song of Asaph.] Keep not silence, O God: hold not your peace, and be not still, O God. ² For, lo, your enemies make a tumult: and they that hate you have lifted up the head. ³ They have taken crafty counsel against your people, and consulted against your hidden ones.
