| 1To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance. Make haste, O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O LORD. | 1God, come to my rescue. LORD, hurry to help me. |
| 2Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them be turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt. | 2May those who seek to kill me be publicly humiliated. May those who take pleasure in my harm be turned back in humiliation. |
| 3Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha. | 3May those who say "Aha! Aha!" be turned back because of their shameful deeds. |
| 4Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified. | 4Let those who seek you greatly rejoice in you. Let those who love your deliverance say, "May God be continuously exalted." |
| 5But I am poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: thou art my help and my deliverer; O LORD, make no tarrying. | 5As for me, I am poor and needy. God, come quickly to me. You are my helper and my deliverer. LORD, please do not delay. |
