Psalm 70 in Hebrew and English

לַמְנַצֵּחַ לְדָוִד לְהַזְכִּֽיר׃

For the Leader. [A Psalm] of David; to make memorial.

אֱלֹהִים לְהַצִּילֵנִי יְהוָה לְעֶזְרָתִי חֽוּשָֽׁה׃

O God, to deliver me, O LORD, to help me, make haste.

יֵבֹשׁוּ וְיַחְפְּרוּ מְבַקְשֵׁי נַפְשִׁי יִסֹּגוּ אָחוֹר וְיִכָּלְמוּ חֲפֵצֵי רָעָתִֽי׃

Let them be ashamed and abashed That seek after my soul; Let them be turned backward and brought to confusion That delight in my hurt.

יָשׁוּבוּ עַל־עֵקֶב בָּשְׁתָּם הָאֹמְרִים הֶאָח הֶאָֽח׃

Let them be turned back by reason of their shame That say: 'Aha, aha.'

יָשִׂישׂוּ וְיִשְׂמְחוּ בְּךָ כָּל־מְבַקְשֶׁיךָ וְיֹאמְרוּ תָמִיד יִגְדַּל אֱלֹהִים אֹהֲבֵי יְשׁוּעָתֶֽךָ׃

Let all those that seek Thee rejoice and be glad in Thee; And let such as love Thy salvation say continually: 'Let God be magnified.'

וַאֲנִי עָנִי וְאֶבְיוֹן אֱלֹהִים חוּשָׁה־לִּי עֶזְרִי וּמְפַלְטִי אַתָּה יְהוָה אַל־תְּאַחַֽר׃

But I am poor and needy; O God, make haste unto me; Thou art my help and my deliverer; O LORD, tarry not.
