| 70:1 | Make haste, O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O LORD. | |
| 70:2 | Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them be turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt. | |
| 70:3 | Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha. | |
| 70:4 | Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified. | |
| 70:5 | But I am poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: thou art my help and my deliverer; O LORD, make no tarrying. |
