Make haste, O God, to deliver me!
Make haste to help me, O LORD!

Who seek my life;
Let them be turned back[fn] and confused
Who desire my hurt.

Psa 70:3

Psa 70:3Let them be turned back because of their shame,
Who say, “Aha, aha!”

Psa 70:4

Psa 70:4Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You;
And let those who love Your salvation say continually,
“Let God be magnified!”

Psa 70:5

Make haste to me, O God!
You are my help and my deliverer;
O LORD, do not delay.
