Psalm 70

Prayer for Deliverance from Enemies

To the leader. Of David, for the memorial offering.

1Be pleased, O God, to deliver me.
    O Lord, make haste to help me!
2Let those be put to shame and confusion
    who seek my life.
Let those be turned back and brought to dishonor
    who desire to hurt me.
3Let those who say, “Aha, Aha!”
    turn back because of their shame.

4Let all who seek you
    rejoice and be glad in you.
Let those who love your salvation
    say evermore, “God is great!”
5But I am poor and needy;
    hasten to me, O God!
You are my help and my deliverer;
    O Lord, do not delay!
