Psalm 70

Christian Standard Bible

Psalm 70

A Call for Deliverance

For the choir director. Of David. To bring remembrance.^(A)

¹God, hurry to rescue me.
Lord, hurry to help me!^(B)

²Let those who seek to kill me
be disgraced and confounded;
let those who wish me harm
be turned back and humiliated.
³Let those who say, “Aha, aha!”
retreat because of their shame.^(C)

⁴Let all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you;
let those who love your salvation
continually say, “God is great!” ^(D)
⁵I am oppressed and needy;
hurry to me, God.
You are my help and my deliverer;
Lord, do not delay.^(E)
