Psalms 70

KING JAMES BIBLE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Make haste, O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O LORD.	1 For the leader; of David. For remembrance.
2 Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them be turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt.	2 Graciously rescue me, God! Come quickly to help me, LORD!
3 Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha.	3 Confound and put to shame those who seek my life. Turn back in disgrace those who desire my ruin.
4 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.	4 Let those who say "Aha!" turn back in their shame.
5 But I am poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: thou art my help and my deliverer; O LORD, make no tarrying.	5 But may all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you. May those who long for your help always say, "God be glorified!"
	6 Here I am, afflicted and poor. God, come quickly! You are my help and deliverer. LORD, do not delay!
