¹ A Psalm, by David. O Jehovah, I have called Thee, haste to me, Give ear `to' my voice when I call to Thee.

⁵ And I `am' poor and needy, O God, haste to me, My help and my deliverer `art' Thou, O Jehovah, tarry Thou not!

¹³ Be pleased, O Jehovah, to deliver me, O Jehovah, for my help make haste.

²¹ Thou dost not take away my transgression, And cause to pass away mine iniquity, Because now, for dust I lie down: And Thou hast sought me -- and I am not!

¹⁹ And Thou, O Jehovah, be not far off, O my strength, to help me haste.

¹⁷ And hide not Thy face from Thy servant, For I am in distress -- haste, answer me.

¹⁸ Be near unto my soul -- redeem it, Because of mine enemies ransom me.

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

¹ A Psalm of David. O Jehovah, hear my prayer, Give ear unto my supplications, In Thy faithfulness answer me -- in Thy righteousness.

⁷ Haste, answer me, O Jehovah, My spirit hath been consumed, Hide not Thou Thy face from me, Or I have been compared with those going down `to' the pit.
