The Psalms

Psalm 70

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David; to bring to remembrance.

 ^70:1Make haste, O God, to deliver me;

 Make haste to help me, O Jehovah.

 ^70:2Let 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.

 ^70:3Let them be turned back by reason of their shame

 That say, Aha, aha.

 ^70:4Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee;

 And let such as love thy salvation say continually,

 Let God be magnified.

 ^70:5But I am poor and needy;

 Make haste unto me, O God:

 Thou art my help and my deliverer;

 O Jehovah, make no tarrying.
