Psalm 70
70
A Prayer for Help#HEBREW TITLE: A psalm by David; a lament.
(Psalm 40.13-17)
1Save me, O God!
Lord, help me now!
2May those who try to kill me
be defeated and confused.
May those who are happy because of my troubles
be turned back and disgraced.
3May those who make fun of me
be dismayed by their defeat.
4May all who come to you
be glad and joyful.
May all who are thankful for your salvation
always say, “How great is God!”
5I am weak and poor;
come to me quickly, O God.
You are my savior and my Lord—
hurry to my aid!
