Psalm chapter 70
English Standard Version
1To the choirmaster. Of David, for the memorial offering. Make haste, O God, to deliver me! O LORD, make haste to help me! 2Let them be put to shame and confusion who seek my life! Let them be turned back and brought to dishonor who delight in my hurt! 3Let them turn back because of their shame who say, “Aha, Aha!” 4May all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you! May those who love your salvation say evermore, “God is great!” 5But I am poor and needy; hasten to me, O God! You are my help and my deliverer; O LORD, do not delay!
New International Version
1For the director of music. Of David. A petition. Hasten, O God, to save me; come quickly, LORD, to help me. 2May those who want to take my life be put to shame and confusion; may all who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace. 3May those who say to me, 'Aha! Aha!' turn back because of their shame.
New American Standard Bible
1God, hurry to save me; LORD, hurry to help me! 2May those who seek my life Be put to shame and humiliated; May those who delight in my harm Be turned back and dishonored. 3May those who say, 'Aha, aha!' be turned back Because of their shame. 4May all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; And may those who love Your salvation say continually, 'May God be exalted!' 5But I am afflicted and needy; Hurry to me, God! You are my help and my savior; LORD, do not delay.
Christian Standard Bible
New Living Translation
1For the choir director: A psalm of David, asking God to remember him. Please, God, rescue me! Come quickly, LORD, and help me. 2May those who try to kill me be humiliated and put to shame. May those who take delight in my trouble be turned back in disgrace. 3Let them be horrified by their shame, for they said, 'Aha! We've got him now!' 4But may all who search for you be filled with joy and gladness in you. May those who love your salvation repeatedly shout, 'God is great!' 5But as for me, I am poor and needy; please hurry to my aid, O God. You are my helper and my savior; O LORD, do not delay.
King James Version
1{To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance.} Make haste, O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O LORD. 2Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them be turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt. 3Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha. 4Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified. 5But I am poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: thou art my help and my deliverer; O LORD, make no tarrying.
