« | Psalm 70 | » |
1 For the end, by David for a remembrance, that the Lord may save me. Draw near, O God, to my help.
2 Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek my soul; let them be turned backward and put to shame, [those] that wish me evil.
3 Let them that say to me, Aha, aha, be turned back and put to shame immediately.
4 Let all that seek You rejoice and be glad in You: and let those that love Your salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.
5 But I am poor and needy; O God, help me: You are my helper and deliverer, O Lord; do not delay.
