Psalm 70

Tree of Life Version

¹ For the music director, of David, for a memorial.
² O God, come quickly to deliver me,
Adonai, to help me.
³ May they be put to shame and disgrace
    who seek my life.
May they be turned back in humiliation
    who delight in my hurt.
⁴ May those who say, “Aha! Aha!”
    be turned away because of their shame.
⁵ But may all who seek You
    rejoice and be glad in You.
May those who love Your salvation
    always say, “Let God be magnified.”
⁶ But I am poor and needy—
    God, come quickly to me.
You are my help and my deliverer—
    Adonai, do not delay.
