Psalms 83 — Let Them Know That Thou Art the Most High

Summary

Keep not thou silence, O God. Thy enemies make a tumult. They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. They have consulted with one consent. Let them be ashamed and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish: That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.

Key verse

“That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.”
