Psalms 70

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

1To the Overseer, by David. --`To cause to remember.' O God, to deliver me, O Jehovah, for my help, haste.

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 Who are seeking my soul, Let them be turned backward and blush Who are desiring my evil.

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

3Let them turn back because of their shame, Who are saying, `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 seeking Thee joy and be glad in Thee, And let those loving Thy salvation Say continually, `God is 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.

5And I <FI>am<Fi> poor and needy, O God, haste to me, My help and my deliverer <FI>art<Fi> Thou, O Jehovah, tarry Thou not!
