Rescue the Weak and Needy
1
God has taken his place in the divine council;
in the midst of the gods he holds judgment:
2
“How long will you judge unjustly
and show partiality to the wicked?
Selah
3
Give justice to the weak and the fatherless;
maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute.
4
Rescue the weak and the needy;
deliver them from the hand of the wicked.”
5
They have neither knowledge nor understanding,
they walk about in darkness;
all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6
I said, “You are gods,
sons of the Most High, all of you;
7
nevertheless, like men you shall die,
and fall like any prince.”
8
Arise, O God, judge the earth;
for you shall inherit all the nations!
O God, Do Not Keep Silence

O God, Do Not Be Silent (Psalm 83)
Wendell Kimbrough (Official Music Video)
Psalm 83 Song - Do Not Keep Silence- Jason Silver
1
O God, do not keep silence;
do not hold your peace or be still, O God!
2
For behold, your enemies make an uproar;
those who hate you have raised their heads.
3
They lay crafty plans against your people;
they consult together against your treasured ones.
4
They say, “Come, let us wipe them out as a nation;
let the name of Israel be remembered no more!”
5
For they conspire with one accord;
against you they make a covenant—
6
the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,
Moab and the Hagrites,
7
Gebal and Ammon and Amalek,
Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8
Asshur also has joined them;
they are the strong arm of the children of Lot.
Selah
9
Do to them as you did to Midian,
as to Sisera and Jabin at the river Kishon,
10
who were destroyed at En-dor,
who became dung for the ground.
11
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb,
all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12
who said, “Let us take possession for ourselves
of the pastures of God.”
13
O my God, make them like whirling dust,
like chaff before the wind.
14
As fire consumes the forest,
as the flame sets the mountains ablaze,
15
so may you pursue them with your tempest
and terrify them with your hurricane!
16
Fill their faces with shame,
that they may seek your name, O Lord.
17
Let them be put to shame and dismayed forever;
let them perish in disgrace,
18
that they may know that you alone,
whose name is the Lord,
are the Most High over all the earth.
