Psalm 83:2

Prayer Against Enemies

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