[A Song. A Psalm of Asaph.]
Do to them as thou didst to Mid'ian,
as to Sis'era and Jabin at the river Kishon,
who were destroyed at En-dor,
who became dung for the ground.
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb,
all their princes like Zebah and Zalmun'na,
who said, "Let us take possession
for ourselves of the pastures of God."
O my God, make them like whirling dust,
like chaff before the wind.
As fire consumes the forest,
as the flame sets the mountains ablaze,
so do thou pursue them with thy tempest
and terrify them with thy hurricane!
Fill their faces with shame,
that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
Let them be put to shame and dismayed for ever;
let them perish in disgrace.
Let them know that thou alone,
whose name is the Lord,
art the most high over all the earth.
