Psalms 70

1 For the choirmaster. Of David. To bring remembrance. Make haste, O God, to deliver me! Hurry, O LORD, to help me!

[For the Chief Musician. By David. A reminder.] Hurry, God, to deliver me. Come quickly to help me, YHWH.

2 May those who seek my life be ashamed and confounded; may those who wish me harm be repelled and humiliated.

Let them be put to shame and confounded who seek my soul. Let those who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.

3 May those who say, “Aha, aha!” retreat because of their shame.

Let them be turned back because of their shame who say to me, "Aha. Aha."

4 May all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; may those who love Your salvation always say, “Let God be magnified!”

Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you. Let those who love your salvation continually say, "Let God be exalted."

5 But I am poor and needy; hurry to me, O God. You are my help and my deliverer; O LORD, do not delay.

But I am poor and needy. Come to me quickly, God. You are my help and my deliverer. YHWH, do not delay.
