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.

Psalm 70#In Hebrew texts 70:1-5 is numbered 70:2-6.
For the director of music. Of David. A petition.
1Hasten, O God, to save me;
come quickly, Lord, to help me.
2May those who want to take my life
be put to shame and confusion;
may all who desire my ruin
be turned back in disgrace.
3May those who say to me, ‘Aha! Aha!’
turn back because of their shame.
4But may all who seek you
rejoice and be glad in you;
may those who long for your saving help always say,
‘The Lord is great!’
5But as for me, I am poor and needy;
come quickly to me, O God.
You are my help and my deliverer;
Lord, do not delay.
