Psalm 70 | English Standard Version

O Lord, Do Not Delay

1 To the choirmaster. Of David, for the memorial offering. Make haste, 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 delight in my hurt! 3 Let them turn back 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!

Schlachter 2000
1 Dem Vorsänger. Von David. Zum Gedenken. 2 Eile, o Gott, mich zu retten, o HERR, mir zu helfen! 3 Es sollen sich schämen und schamrot werden, die mir nach dem Leben trachten; es sollen zurückweichen und zuschanden werden, die mein Unglück suchen! 4 Es sollen sich zurückziehen wegen ihrer eigenen Schande, die sagen: »Haha, haha!«. 5 Es sollen fröhlich sein und sich an dir freuen alle, die dich suchen; und die dein Heil lieben, sollen allezeit sagen: Gott ist groß! 6 Ich aber bin elend und arm; o Gott, eile zu mir! Meine Hilfe und mein Retter bist du; o HERR, säume nicht!
