Psalm LXX.

1

Save me, O Lord, with speed;
Make hast to succour me:
And let them all that seek my life,
With shame confounded be.

2

Let them be turned back,
That wish my hurt, O Lord:
And they that make a mock of me,
Let shame be their reward.

3

But let them all rejoyce,
That thy salvation love:

108

And let them say continually,
All praise to God above

4

Make hast to me, O God,
For I am poor and low:
Thou art my help and faviour,
Come Lord, and be not slow.
