1 God, hurry to rescue me.
LORD, hurry to help me!
2 Let those who seek to kill me
be disgraced and confounded;
let those who wish me harm
be turned back and humiliated.
3 Let those who say, “Aha, aha!”
retreat because of their shame.
4 Let all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you;
let those who love your salvation
continually say, “God is great!”
5 I am oppressed and needy;
hurry to me, God.
You are my help and my deliverer;
LORD, do not delay.
