Psalms 70

1 God, hurry to rescue me. LORD, hurry to help me!

2 Let those who seek to kill me be disgraced and confounded; let those who wish me harm be turned back and humiliated.

3 Let those who say, "Aha, aha!" retreat because of their shame.

4 Let all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; let those who love your salvation continually say, "God is great!"

5 I am oppressed and needy; hurry to me, God. You are my help and my deliverer; LORD, do not delay.
