1 H urry, God, to deliver me. Come quickly to help me, Yahweh.

O God, hurry to take me out of trouble. O Lord, hurry to help me!

2 L et them be disappointed and confounded who seek my soul. Let those who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.

Let those who want to kill me be ashamed and brought low. Let those who want to hurt me be turned away in shame.

3 L et them be turned because of their shame Who say, “Aha! Aha!”

Let those who say, “O, O!” be turned back because of their shame.

4 L et all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you. Let those who love your salvation continually say, “Let God be exalted!”

Let all who look for You be full of joy and be glad in You. And let those who love Your saving power always say, “Let God be honored.”

5 B ut I am poor and needy. Come to me quickly, God. You are my help and my deliverer. Yahweh, don’t delay.

But I am poor and in need. Hurry to me, O God! You are my help and the One Who takes me out of trouble. O Lord, do not wait.
