Tehillim (Psa) 70
70
1For the leader. By David. As a reminder:
2God, rescue me!
Adonai, hurry and help me!
3May those who seek my life
be disgraced and humiliated.
May those who take pleasure in doing me harm
be turned back and put to confusion.
4May those who jeer, “Aha! Aha!”
withdraw because of their shame.
5But may all those who seek you
be glad and take joy in you.
May those who love your salvation say always,
“God is great and glorious!”
6But I am poor and needy;
God, hurry for me.
You are my helper and rescuer;
Adonai, don’t delay!

PSALM 70
First Version
Meter: 6,6,8,6
To the chief Musician,
A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance.
1Lord, haste me to deliver; with speed,
Lord, succor me.
2Let them that for my soul do seek
shamed and confounded be:
Turned back be they, and shamed,
that in my hurt delight.
3Turned back be they, Ha, ha! that say,
their shaming to requite.
4In thee let all be glad,
and joy that seek for thee:
Let them who thy salvation love
say still, God praisèd be.
5I poor and needy am; come, Lord,
and make no stay:
My help thou and deliv'rer art;
O Lord, make no delay.
