Psalms 83:10
Compare all
8 Assyria also has joined with them;
They have helped the children of Lot. Selah
9 Deal with them as with aMidian,
As with bSisera,
As with Jabin at the Brook Kishon, 
10 Who perished at En Dor,
aWho became as refuse on the earth. 
11 Make their nobles like aOreb and like Zeeb,
Yes, all their princes like bZebah and Zalmunna, 
12 Who said, “Let us take for ourselves
The pastures of God for a possession.”
13 aO my God, make them like the whirling dust,
bLike the chaff before the wind! 
14 As the fire burns the woods,
And as the flame asets the mountains on fire,

Psalms 83:10

Which perished at En-dor - Endor is not particularly mentioned in the history of the transaction in the book of Judges, but it is known that Endor was in the vicinity of Mount Tabor, and there is no improbability in the tradition which has fixed the site of the battle at or near Endor. The word or name "En-dor" means properly fount of the dwelling (or, habitation), and was probably given at first to a spring or fountain near to which some distinguished or well-known person dwelt. It is mentioned in Joshua 17:11; I Samuel 28:7.

They became as dung for the earth - The land was enriched or made fertile by their flesh, their blood, and their bones, as the field of Waterloo was by that of the slain, or as fields of battle commonly are.
