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.

A Prayer for Help#Ps 70 Hebrew title: A psalm by David; a lament.
(Ps 40.13–17)
1Save me, O God!
LORD, help me now!
2May those who try to kill me
be defeated and confused.
May those who are happy because of my troubles
be turned back and disgraced.
3May those who jeer at me
be dismayed by their defeat.
4May all who come to you
be glad and joyful.
May all who are thankful for your salvation
always say, “How great is God!”
5I am weak and poor;
come to me quickly, O God.
You are my saviour, O LORD —
hurry to my aid!
