| 1 | To the overseer: to David, to bring to remembrance. O God, to deliver me; O Jehovah hasten to help me. | Make haste, O God, to deliver me! O LORD, make haste to help me! | For the director of music. Of David. A petition. Hasten, O God, to save me; come quickly, LORD, to help me. | |
| 2 | They seeking my soul shall be confused and ashamed: they shall be turned away behind; and they desiring my evils, shall be ashamed. | Let them be put to shame and confusion who seek my life! Let them be turned back and brought to dishonor who delight in my hurt! | May those who want to take my life be put to shame and confusion; may all who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace. | |
| 3 | They shall be turned back for a reward of their shame, saying, Aha! Aha. | Let them turn back because of their shame who say, “Aha, Aha!” | May those who say to me, “Aha! Aha!” turn back because of their shame. | |
| 4 | All seeking thee shall rejoice and be glad in thee, and they shall say always, God shall be magnified; they loving thy salvation. | May all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you! May those who love your salvation say evermore, “God is great!” | But may all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; may those who long for your saving help always say, “The LORD is great!” | |
| 5 | And I am poor and needy: O God, hasten to me, my help and my deliverer; thou, O Jehovah, wilt not delay. | But I am poor and needy; hasten to me, O God! You are my help and my deliverer; O LORD, do not delay! | But as for me, I am poor and needy; come quickly to me, O God. You are my help and my deliverer; LORD, do not delay. | |
