70:1 O God, please be willing to rescue me!1
O Lord, hurry and help me!2
70:2 May those who are trying to take my life
be embarrassed and ashamed!3
May those who want to harm me
be turned back and ashamed!4
70:3 May those who say, “Aha! Aha!”
be driven back5 and disgraced!6
70:4 May all those who seek you be happy and rejoice in you!
May those who love to experience7 your deliverance say continually,8
70:5 I am oppressed and needy!11
O God, hurry to me!12
You are my helper and my deliverer!
O Lord,13 do not delay!
Psalm 7114
