1 *Make haste, O God, to deliver me!

O Lord, make haste to help me!

2 Let them be put to shame and confusion

who seek my life!

Let them be turned back and brought to dishonor

who delight in my hurt!

3 Let them turn back because of their shame

who say, "Aha, Aha!"

4 May all who seek you

rejoice and be glad in you!

May those who love your salvation

say evermore, "God is great!"

5 But I am poor and needy;

*hasten to me, O God!

You are my help and my deliverer;

O Lord, do not delay!
