The Lord Will

Psalm 83:1

β€œKeep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.”

KJV

Read in Psalm 83

Meaning

The opening is a plea for divine attention, not permission for the speaker to take vengeance into his own hands.

Read carefully

Psalm 83 is an ancient prayer to God and does not authorize private revenge, ethnic hatred, or political violence.

Reflection

Bring the threat before God and pursue just, non-retaliatory action.
