The idea of human belief in curses poses a problem for the curse part in Psalms. Problem of misunderstanding the curses part of Psalm 83:1-19 arises among believers. Quite often, critical evaluation addresses the correct understanding of the curse part of Psalms because it contains such complex values. Critical evaluation is a part of revelation that creates ethical issues in the lives of believers. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to provide a critical evaluation to understand the curse part of Psalm amidst the phenomenon of ethical issues in the lives of believers in order to knows the purpose of a psalmist in the actualization of God's morals through this study and enrich the church's understanding of the curse part of Psalm that are rarely understood correctly.
