Good News Translation GNT
Revised Standard Version RSV
1 Save me, O God! Lord, help me now!
1
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David, for the memorial offering. Be pleased, O God, to deliver me! O LORD, make haste to help me!
2 May those who try to kill me be defeated and confused. May those who are happy because of my troubles be turned back and disgraced.
2
Let them be put to shame and confusion who seek my life! Let them be turned back and brought to dishonor who desire my hurt!
3 May those who make fun of me be dismayed by their defeat.
3
Let them be appalled because of their shame who say, "Aha, Aha!"
4 May all who come to you be glad and joyful. May all who are thankful for your salvation always say, "How great is God!"
4
May all who seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee! May those who love thy salvation say evermore, "God is great!"
5 I am weak and poor; come to me quickly, O God. You are my savior and my Lord - hurry to my aid!
5
But I am poor and needy; hasten to me, O God! Thou art my help and my deliverer; O LORD, do not tarry!
