Psalms 70

Help to Remember

This is for the music leader.

It is a psalm of David, to give him help to remember.

1 God, save me!

LORD, hurry to give me help. ^{▼▼70:1 Verse 1: David asks God for help soon, because (verse 2) an enemy is going to kill him.}

2 There are people that want to kill me.

I hope that they will become ashamed and confused.

There are people that want to destroy me.

I hope that everyone will say that they are bad people.

3 I want all those people that say to me ‘Aha! Aha!’

to become very sorry for what they have done. ^{▼▼70:3 Verse 3: The enemy thinks that he has beaten David, so the enemy says, ‘Aha! Aha!’ These are not really words, but sounds that people make when they think, ‘I have won the fight!’}

4 I want everyone looking for you to be happy, very happy.

I want everyone that loves it when you save them to say, ‘Praise God.’

5 But I am poor and I need help.

God, hurry to give me help.

You are my help, and you save me.

O LORD, do not be long! ^{▼▼70:5 Verse 5: David remembers again that he needs help from God.}
