1 [[To the chief Musician, H5329 A Psalm of David, H1732 to bring to remembrance.]] H2142 Make haste, O God, H430 to deliver H5337 me; make haste H2363 to help H5833 me, O LORD. H3068
2 Let them be ashamed H954 and confounded H2659 that seek H1245 after my soul: H5315 let them be turned H5472 backward, H268 and put to confusion, H3637 that desire H2655 my hurt. H7451
3 Let them be turned back H7725 for a reward H6118 of their shame H1322 that say, H559 Aha, H1889 aha. H1889
4 Let all those that seek H1245 thee rejoice H7797 and be glad H8055 in thee: and let such as love H157 thy salvation H3444 say H559 continually, H8548 Let God H430 be magnified. H1431
5 But I am poor H6041 and needy: H34 make haste H2363 unto me, O God: H430 thou art my help H5828 and my deliverer; H6403 O LORD, H3068 make no tarrying. H309

PSALM 70
Ps 70:1-5. This corresponds to Ps 40:13-17 with a very few variations, as "turn back" (Ps 70:3) for "desolate," and "make haste unto me" (Ps 70:5) for "thinketh upon me." It forms a suitable appendix to the preceding, and is called "a Psalm to bring to remembrance," as the thirty-eighth [see on Ps 38:1, title].
