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

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

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.

2Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them be turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt.

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

3Let them be turned back for a reward 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.

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.

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.

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