Psalms 70

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

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

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

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.

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

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

4Let all those seeking Thee joy and be glad in Thee, And let those loving Thy salvation Say continually, `God is magnified.'

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.

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!

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