O Lord, Do Not Delay

1 # For ver. 1-5, see Ps. 40:13-17 Make haste, O God, to deliver me!
O Lord, make haste to help me!
2Let them be put to shame and confusion
who seek my life!
Let them be turned back and brought to dishonor
who delight in my hurt!
3Let them turn back because of their shame
who say, “Aha, Aha!”
4May all who seek you
rejoice and be glad in you!
May those who love your salvation
say evermore, “God is great!”
5But I am poor and needy;

Psalm 70
70
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance.
1 Make haste, O God, to deliver me;
Make haste to help me, O LORD.
2Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul:
Let them be turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt.
3Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame
That say, Aha, aha.
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.
5But I am poor and needy;
Make haste unto me, O God:
Thou art my help and my deliverer;
O LORD, make no tarrying.
