Psalms 70

1 To the chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David: to bring to remembrance. Make haste, O God, to deliver me; Jehovah, [hasten] to my help.

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 ashamed and brought to confusion that seek after my soul; let them be turned backward and confounded that take pleasure in mine adversity;

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 turn back because of their shame that say, Aha! Aha!

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

4 Let all those that seek thee be glad and rejoice 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 afflicted and needy: make haste unto me, O God. Thou art my help and my deliverer: O Jehovah, make no delay.

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