Psalms 70 - New International Version, 1984

Psalm 70
For the director of music. Of David. A petition.
Hasten, O God, to save me;
O Lord, come quickly to help me.

May those who seek my life
be put to shame and confusion;
may all who desire my ruin
be turned back in disgrace.

May those who say to me, “Aha! Aha!”
turn back because of their shame.

But may all who seek you
rejoice and be glad in you;
may those who love your salvation always say,
“Let God be exalted!”

Yet I am poor and needy;
come quickly to me, O God.
You are my help and my deliverer;
O Lord, do not delay.
