Psalms

For the Chief Musician. By David. A reminder.

1Hurry, God, to deliver me.Come quickly to help me, LORD.

2Let them be disappointed and confounded who seek my soul.Let those who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.

3Let them be turned because of their shamewho say, “Aha! Aha!”

4Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you.Let those who love your salvation continually say, “Let God be exalted!”

5But I am poor and needy.Come to me quickly, God.You are my help and my deliverer.LORD, don’t delay.

1To the Overseer, by David. — 'To cause to remember.' O God, to deliver me, O Jehovah, for my help, haste.

2Let them be ashamed and confounded Who are seeking my soul, Let them be turned backward and blush Who are desiring my evil.

3Let them turn back because of their shame, Who are saying, 'Aha, aha.'

4Let all those seeking Thee joy and be glad in Thee, And let those loving Thy salvation Say continually, 'God is magnified.'

5And I [am] poor and needy, O God, haste to me, My help and my deliverer [art] Thou, O Jehovah, tarry Thou not!
