| 1For the director of music. Of David. A petition. Hasten, O God, to save me; come quickly, LORD, to help me. | 1For the choir director. Davidic. To bring remembrance. God, deliver me. Hurry to help me, LORD! |
| 2May those who want to take my life be put to shame and confusion; may all who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace. | 2Let those who seek my life be disgraced and confounded; let those who wish me harm be driven back and humiliated. |
| 3May those who say to me, "Aha! Aha!" turn back because of their shame. | 3Let those who say, "Aha, aha!" retreat because of their shame. |
| 4But 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!" | 4Let all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; let those who love Your salvation continually say, "God is great!" |
| 5But 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. | 5I am afflicted and needy; hurry to me, God. You are my help and my deliverer; LORD, do not delay. |
