Psalms 70

   |   

Prayer for Help against Persecutors.

For the choir director. A Psalm of David; for a memorial.

1 (a)O God, hasten to deliver me;
O Lord, hasten to my help!
2 (b)Let those be ashamed and humiliated
Who seek my [a]life;
Let those be turned back and dishonored
Who delight [b]in my hurt.
3 (c)Let those be [c]turned back because of their shame
Who say, "Aha, aha!"

4 Let all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You;
And let those who love Your salvation say continually,
"Let God be magnified."
5 But (d)I am afflicted and needy;
(e)Hasten to me, O God!
You are my help and my deliverer;
O Lord, do not delay.
