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

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

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

3 Let them turn back because 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.'

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!

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!

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