[70:1] Save me, O God! Lord, help me now!
[70:2] 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.
[70:3] May those who make fun of me be dismayed by their defeat.
[70:4] May all who come to you be glad and joyful. May all who are thankful for your salvation always say, “How great is God!”
[70:5] I am weak and poor; come to me quickly, O God. You are my savior and my Lord— hurry to my aid!
