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.

Psalms 70
70
A Cry for Help
To the Pure and Shining One
David’s poetic lament to always remember
1Please, Lord! Come quickly and rescue me!
God, show me your favor and restore me.
2Let all who seek my life be humiliated and confused.
God, send them sprawling, all who wish me evil;
they just want me dead.
3Scoff at every scoffer and cause them all to be utter failures!
Let them be ashamed and horrified over their complete defeat.
4But let all who passionately seek you erupt with excitement and joy
over what you’ve done!
Let all your devoted lovers, who continually rejoice in the Savior, # 70:4 This verse contains the Hebrew root word for Yeshua.
say aloud, “How great and glorious is our God!”
5Lord, in my place of weakness and need,
won’t you turn your heart toward me and hurry to help me?
For you are my Savior, and I’m always in your thoughts.
So don’t delay to deliver me now, for you are my God.
