Psalms 70

1 Hasten, O God, to deliver me. Make haste to help me, O Jehovah.

For the end, by David for a remembrance, that the Lord may save me. Draw near, O God, to my help.

2 Let them be put to shame and confounded who seek after my soul. Let them be turned backward and brought to dishonor who delight in my hurt.

Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek my soul: let them be turned backward and put to shame, that wish me evil.

3 Let them be turned back because of their shame who say, Aha, aha.

Let them that say to me, Aha, aha, be turned back and put to shame immediately.

4 Let all those who seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee. And let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.

Let all that seek you exult and be glad in you: and let those that love your salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.

5 But I am poor and needy. Make haste to me, O God. Thou are my help and my deliverer, O Jehovah. Delay thou not.

But I am poor and needy; O God, help me: you are my helper and deliverer, O Lord, delay not.
