Psalms 83
Book of Psalms
Psalms 83:1 A Song or Psalm of Asaph. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy
peace, and be not still, O God.
2 For, lo, thine enemies
make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3 They have taken crafty
counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
4 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.
5 For they have
consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
6 The tabernacles of
Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7 Gebal, and Ammon, and
Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 Assur also is joined
with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.
9 Do unto them as
unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to
Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
10 Which perished at En-dor:
they became as dung for the earth.
11 Make their nobles
like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
12 Who said, Let us take
to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
13 O my God, make them
like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
14 As the fire burneth a
wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
15 So persecute them
with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
16 Fill their faces with
shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
17 Let them be
confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
18 That men may know
that thou, whose name alone is God, art the most high over all the earth.
• Exactly 2520 years from the exile
of Benjamin, Iceland became an independent nation.
•
The first tribe to be
conquered by the Assyrians was Manasseh,
in 745 B.C. Exactly 2520 years later America became a nation on July 4, 1776.
(Leviticus. 26: 28-46) God warned Israel that if they persisted in continually
breaking His Laws, not only would curses come upon them.
He would punish them for seven times, (a time being 360 years, seven times would
be 2520 years) and would banish them from the land of Palestine and scatter them
among the heathens (like lost sheep)
