Psalms 70

Royal Kingdom

Prayer for Deliverance from Enemies
To the choirmaster.
A Psalm of David, for the memorial offering.

1

Be pleased, O God, to deliver me! O Lord, make haste to help me!

2

Let them be put to shame and confusion who seek my life! Let them be turned back and brought to dishonor who desire my harm!

3

Let them be appalled because of their shame who say, “Aha, Aha!”

4

May all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you! May those who love your salvation say evermore, “God is great!”

5

But I am poor and needy; hasten to me, O God! You are my help and my deliverer; O Lord, do not delay!
