Make haste, O Lord, to help me
(Psalm 40:1-17; Psalm 141:1-10)
1
TO THE OVERSEER. BY DAVID. “TO CAUSE TO REMEMBER.” O God, [hurry] to deliver me, || O YHWH, hurry to help me.
2
Let them be ashamed and confounded || Who are seeking my soul, || Let them be turned backward and blush || Who are desiring my evil.
3
Let them turn back because of their shame, || Who are saying, “Aha, aha.”
4
Let all those seeking You rejoice and be glad in You, || And let those loving Your salvation || Continually say, “God is magnified.”
5
And I [am] poor and needy, O God, hurry to me, || You [are] my help and my deliverer, || O YHWH, do not linger!
