That the bname of Israel be remembered no more.”

5For they have 1aconspired together with one mind;

Against You they make a covenant:

6The tents of aEdom and the bIshmaelites,

cMoab and the dHagrites;

ESVEnglish Standard Version

O God, do not keep silence;

do not hold your peace or be still, O God!

For behold, your enemies make an uproar;

those who hate you have raised their heads.

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,

NIVNew International Version (2011)

O God, do not remain silent;

do not turn a deaf ear,

do not stand aloof, O God.

See how your enemies growl,

how your foes rear their heads.

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,

CSBChristian Standard Bible

God, do not keep silent.

Do not be deaf, God; do not be quiet.

See how your enemies make an uproar;

those who hate you have acted arrogantly.

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,

NLTNew Living Translation

O God, do not be silent!

Do not be deaf.

Do not be quiet, O God.

Don’t you hear the uproar of your enemies?

Don’t you see that your arrogant enemies are rising up?

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;

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

O God, do not rest silently.

Do not keep silent or be still, O God.

For look, your enemies roar,

and those who hate you have lifted their head.

They devise cunning schemes against your people,

and consult together against your protected ones.

They say, “Come, let us annihilate them from being a nation,

so that the name of Israel will be remembered no more.”

For they have consulted together with a unified purpose.

They have made a covenant against you:

the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,

Moab and the Hagrites,

KJV 1900King James Version

Keep not thou silence, O God:

Hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.

For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult:

And they that hate thee have lifted up the head.

They have taken crafty counsel against thy people,

And consulted against thy hidden ones.

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.

For they have consulted together with one consent:

They are confederate against thee:

The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites;

Of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
