Psalm 70

1 For the one directing. Of David. For remembrance. <span class=|reftext|><a href=|#|><b>1</b></a> O God, deliver me, O YHWH, may You hurry—to help me!

2 Let them be ashamed and confounded, those seeking my soul; let them be turned back and be disgraced, those taking delight [in] my harm!

3 Let them be turned back over the heel of their shame, those saying, “Aha, aha!”

4 Let all those seeking You rejoice and be glad in You; those loving Your salvation, let them say continually “May God be magnified!”

5 And I [am] lowly and needy; O God, hurry to me! You [are] my help and my deliverer, O YHWH—do not delay!
