Psalms 82 — Context

Set their leaders to be like Oreb and Zeeb, and Zebah and Zalmunna: all their leaders

who said, “Let us possess the Sanctuary of God for an inheritance.”

My God, set them like a wheel, and like stubble before the face of the wind.

Set them like a fire burning up the forest, and like a flame burning up the mountains.

So will you pursue them in your tempest, and disturb them in your wrath.

Fill their faces with shame, and they will seek your name, O Lord.

Let them be ashamed and troubled, from age to age, and let them be confounded and perish.
