1890 Darby's Translation of the Holy Scriptures (DBY)

Psalms 70

David soliciteth God to the speedy destruction of the wicked, and preservation of the godly.

 70:1 ¶ [[To the chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David: to bring to remembrance.]] Make haste, O God, to deliver me; Jehovah, [hasten] to my help.

 70:2 Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion that seek after my soul; let them be turned backward and confounded that take pleasure in mine adversity;

 70:3 Let them turn back because of their shame that say, Aha! Aha!

 70:4 Let all those that seek thee be glad and rejoice in thee, and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified!

 70:5 But I am afflicted and needy: make haste unto me, O God. Thou art my help and my deliverer: O Jehovah, make no delay.
