| 1 | Make haste, O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O Lord! |
| 2 | Let them be put to shame
and
confounded that seek
and
demand my life; let them be turned backward and brought to confusion
and
dishonor who desire
and
delight in my hurt. |
| 3 | Let them be turned back
and
appalled because of their shame
and
disgrace who say, Aha, aha! |
| 4 | May all those who seek, inquire of
and
for You,
and
require You [as their vital need] rejoice and be glad in You; and may those who love Your salvation say continually, Let God be magnified! |
| 5 | But I am poor and needy; hasten to me, O God! You are my Help and my Deliverer; O Lord, do not tarry! |
