70 Hurry, God, to deliver me;
    hurry, Lord, to help me!
² Let those who seek my life be ashamed and humiliated!
    Let them fall back and be disgraced—
        those people who delight in my downfall!
³ Let those who say, “Aha! Aha!”
    stop because of their shameful behavior.
⁴ But let all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you,
    and let those who love your saving help say again and again:
        “God is great!”
⁵ But me? I’m poor and needy.
    Hurry to me, God!
You are my helper and my deliverer.
    Oh, Lord, don’t delay!
