¹ Jehovah, I have called upon thee; make haste unto me: Give ear unto my voice, when I call unto thee.

⁵ But I am poor and needy; Make haste unto me, O God: Thou art my help and my deliverer; O Jehovah, make no tarrying.

¹³ Be pleased, O Jehovah, to deliver me: Make haste to help me, O Jehovah.

²¹ And why dost thou not pardon my transgression, and take away mine iniquity? For now shall I lie down in the dust; And thou wilt seek me diligently, but I shall not be.

¹⁹ But be not thou far off, O Jehovah: O thou my succor, haste thee to help me.

¹⁷ And hide not thy face from thy servant; For I am in distress; answer me speedily.

¹⁸ Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: Ransom me because of mine enemies.

¹² O God, be not far from me; O my God, make haste to help me.

¹ Hear my prayer, O Jehovah; give ear to my supplications: In thy faithfulness answer me, `and' in thy righteousness.

⁷ Make haste to answer me, O Jehovah; my spirit faileth: Hide not thy face from me, Lest I become like them that go down into the pit.
