< Psalms 70 >
1 For the chief musician. A psalm of David; to bring to remembrance. Save me, God! Yahweh, come quickly and help me.
2 Let those who try to take my life be ashamed and humiliated; let them be turned back and brought to dishonor, those who take pleasure in my pain.
3 Let them be turned back because of their shame, those who say, “Aha, aha.”
4 Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; let those who love your salvation always say, “May God be praised.”
5 But I am poor and needy; hurry to me, God; you are my help and you rescue me. Yahweh, do not delay.
