For the director of music. Of David. A petition.

Hasten, O God, to save me; come quickly, Lord , to help me.^(b)

May those who want to take my life^(c) be put to shame and confusion; may all who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.^(d)

May those who say to me, "Aha! Aha!"^(e) turn back because of their shame.

But may all who seek you^(f) rejoice and be glad^(g) in you; may those who long for your saving help always say, "The Lord is great!"^(h)

But as for me, I am poor and needy;⁽ⁱ⁾ come quickly to me,^(j) O God. You are my help^(k) and my deliverer;^(l) Lord , do not delay.^(m)
