Make haste, O Lord, to help me

(Psalm 40:1-17; Psalm 141:1-10)
1
Unto the end, a psalm for David, to bring to remembrance that the Lord saved him.
2
O God, come to my assistance; O Lord, make haste to help me.
3
Let them be confounded and ashamed that seek my soul:
4
Let them be turned backward, and blush for shame that desire evils to me: Let them be presently turned away blushing for shame that say to me: Tis well, tis well.
5
Let all that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee; and let such as love thy salvation say always: The Lord be magnified.
6
But I am needy and poor; O God, help me. Thou art my helper and my deliverer: O Lord, make no delay.

Make haste, O Lord, to help me

(Psalm 40:1-17; Psalm 141:1-10)
1
Hurry, God, to deliver me. Come quickly to help me, LORD.
2
Let them be disappointed and confounded who seek my soul. Let those who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.
3
Let them be turned because of their shame who say, “Aha! Aha!”
4
Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you. Let those who love your salvation continually say,Let God be exalted!”
5
But I am poor and needy. Come to me quickly, God. You are my help and my deliverer. LORD, don’t delay.
