Psalms 83:5

3 With cunning they scheme against Your people and conspire against those You cherish,

4 saying, “Come, let us erase them as a nation; may the name of Israel be remembered no more.”

For with one mind they plot together, they form an alliance against You—

6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, of Moab and the Hagrites,

7 of Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek, of Philistia with the people of Tyre.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
