To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance. 1 Make haste, Oh God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, oh, Jehovah.
2 Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my life; let them that desire my hurt be turned backward and put to confusion.
3 Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha.
4 Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; and let such as love your salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.
5 But I am poor and needy: make haste to me, Oh God: you are my help and my deliverer; oh, Jehovah, make no waiting.
