Psalm 70:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
70 1 He prayeth to be right speedily delivered. 2 He desireth the shame of his enemies, 4 And the joyful comfort of all those that seek the Lord.
To him that excelleth. A Psalm of David, to put [a]in remembrance.
1 O (A)God, [b]haste thee to deliver me: make haste to help me, O Lord.
2 Let them be [c]confounded and put to shame, that seek my soul: let them be turned backward and put to rebuke, that desire mine hurt.
3 Let them be turned back for a reward of their [d]shame, which say, Aha, aha.
