ESVEnglish Standard Version

They lay crafty plans against your people;

they consult together against your treasured ones.

They say, “Come, let us wipe them out as a nation;

let the name of Israel be remembered no more!”

For they conspire with one accord;

against you they make a covenant—

the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,

Moab and the Hagrites,

Gebal and Ammon and Amalek,

Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;

Asshur also has joined them;

they are the strong arm of the children of Lot. Selah

NIVNew International Version (2011)

With cunning they conspire against your people;

they plot against those you cherish.

“Come,” they say, “let us destroy them as a nation,

so that Israel’s name is remembered no more.”

With one mind they plot together;

they form an alliance against you—

the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,

of Moab and the Hagrites,

Byblos, Ammon and Amalek,

Philistia, with the people of Tyre.

Even Assyria has joined them

to reinforce Lot’s descendants.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

They devise clever schemes against your people;

they conspire against your treasured ones.

They say, “Come, lets wipe them out as a nation

so that Israel’s name will no longer be remembered.”

For they have conspired with one mind;

they form an alliance against you—

the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,

Moab and the Hagrites,

Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek,

Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre.

Even Assyria has joined them;

they lend support to the sons of Lot.

Selah

NLTNew Living Translation

They devise crafty schemes against your people;

they conspire against your precious ones.

“Come,” they say, “let us wipe out Israel as a nation.

We will destroy the very memory of its existence.”

Yes, this was their unanimous decision.

They signed a treaty as allies against you—

these Edomites and Ishmaelites;

Moabites and Hagrites;

Gebalites, Ammonites, and Amalekites;

and people from Philistia and Tyre.

Assyria has joined them, too,

and is allied with the descendants of Lot.

They have made a covenant against you:

the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,

Assyria also has joined with them.

They provide help to the children of Lot. Selah
