Young's Literal Translation YLT
New International Version NIV
1 To the Overseer, by David. -- `To cause to remember.' O God, to deliver me, O Jehovah, for my help, haste.
1
Hasten, O God, to save me; come quickly, LORD, to help me.
2 Let them be ashamed and confounded Who are seeking my soul, Let them be turned backward and blush Who are desiring my evil.
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 are saying, `Aha, aha.'
3
May those who say to me, “Aha! Aha!” turn back because of their shame.
4 Let all those seeking Thee joy and be glad in Thee, And let those loving Thy salvation Say continually, `God is magnified.'
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 And I [am] poor and needy, O God, haste to me, My help and my deliverer [art] Thou, O Jehovah, tarry Thou not!
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.
