New International Version NIV
1 Make haste, O God, to deliver me! O LORD, make haste to help me!
1
Hasten, O God, to save me; come quickly, LORD, 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!
2
May those who want to take my life be put to shame and confusion; may all who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.
3 Let them turn back because of their shame who say, "Aha, Aha!"
3
May those who say to me, “Aha! Aha!” turn back because of their shame.
4 May all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you! May those who love your salvation say evermore, "God is great!"
4
But may all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; may those who long for your saving help always say, “The LORD 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!
5
But as for me, I am poor and needy; come quickly to me, O God. You are my help and my deliverer; LORD, do not delay.
