Psalm 70
21st Century King James Version
70 Make haste, O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O Lord!
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.
3 Let them be turned back as a reward for their shame that say, “Aha, aha!”
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!”
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.
Psalm 70

1 Hasten, O God, to save me;
come quickly, Lord, to help me.(B)
2 May those who want to take my life(C)
be put to shame and confusion;
may all who desire my ruin
be turned back in disgrace.(D)
3 May those who say to me, “Aha! Aha!”(E)

4 But may all who seek you(F)
rejoice and be glad(G) in you;

“The Lord is great!”(H)
