Psalm 70, S.M.: Lord, haste me to deliver
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance.
First Version (S.M.)
Meter: S.M. (6,6,8,6)
1 Lord, haste me to deliver; with speed, Lord, succour me. 2 Let them that for my soul do seek sham’d and confounded be:
Turn’d back be they, and sham’d, that in my hurt delight. 3 Turn’d back be they, Ha, ha! that say, their shaming to requite.
4 In thee let all be glad, and joy that seek for thee: Let them who thy salvation love say still, God praised be.
5 I poor and needy am; come, Lord, and make no stay: My help thou and deliv’rer art; O Lord, make no delay.
