Psalms 70

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

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

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

2Let them be ashamed and confounded Who are seeking my soul, Let them be turned backward and blush Who are desiring my evil.

3Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha.

3Let them turn back because of their shame, Who are saying, `Aha, aha.'

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 seeking Thee joy and be glad in Thee, And let those loving Thy salvation Say continually, `God is magnified.'

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

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!
