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.

PSALM 70
To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David: to bring to remembrance.
1Make haste, O God#GodHebrew: Elohim to deliver me; Jehovah, hasten to my help. 2Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion that seek after my soul; let them be turned backward and confounded that take pleasure in mine adversity; 3Let them turn back because of their shame that say, Aha! Aha! 4Let all those that seek thee be glad and rejoice in thee, and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God#GodHebrew: Elohim be magnified! 5But I am afflicted and needy: make haste unto me, O God#GodHebrew: Elohim Thou art my help and my deliverer: O Jehovah, make no delay.
