Psalms 70

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

Unto the end, a psalm for David, to bring to remembrance that the Lord saved him. O God, come to my assistance; O Lord, make haste to help me.

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

Let them be confounded and ashamed that seek my soul:

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

Let them be turned backward, and blush for shame that desire evils to me: Let them be presently turned away blushing for shame that say to me: Tis well, tis well.

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

Let all that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee; and let such as love thy salvation say always: The Lord be magnified.

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

But I am needy and poor; O God, help me. Thou art my helper and my deliverer: O Lord, make no delay.
