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

1 Make haste, OGod, to deliver me; Jehovah, [hasten] to my help.

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.

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;

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

3 Let them turn back because of their shame that say, Aha! Aha!

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.

4 Let all those that seek thee be glad and rejoice in thee, and let such as love thy salvation say continually, LetGod be magnified!

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.

5 But I am afflicted and needy: make haste unto me, OGod. Thou art my help and my deliverer: O Jehovah, make no delay.
