Psalms 70

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

1 Let your salvation come quickly, O God; come quickly to my help, O Lord.

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

2Let those who go after my soul have shame and trouble; let those who have evil designs against me be turned back and made foolish.

3Let them be turned back by reason of their shame That say, Aha, aha.

3Let those who say Aha, aha! be turned back as a reward of their shame.

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

4Let all those who are looking for you be glad and have joy in you; let the lovers of your salvation ever say, May God be great.

5But I am poor and needy; Make haste unto me, O God: Thou art my help and my deliverer; O Jehovah, make no tarrying.

5But I am poor and in need; come to me quickly, O God; you are my help and my saviour; let there be no waiting, O Lord.
