Psalms 83:14

12 who said, “Let us possess for ourselves the pastures of God.”

13 Make them like tumbleweed, O my God, like chaff before the wind.

As fire consumes a forest, as a flame sets the mountains ablaze,

15 so pursue them with Your tempest, and terrify them with Your storm.

16 Cover their faces with shame, that they may seek Your name, O LORD.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
