Psalms 83:7

5 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,

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

8 Even Assyria has joined them, lending strength to the sons of Lot. Selah

9 Do to them as You did to Midian, as to Sisera and Jabin at the River Kishon,

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.
