Psalm 70
Darby Translation · 5 verses
To the chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David: to bring to remembrance.
1Make haste, O God, to deliver me; Jehovah, [hasten] to my help.2Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion that seek after my soul; let them be turned backward and confounded that take pleasure in mine adversity;3Let them turn back because of their shame that say, Aha! Aha!4Let all those that seek thee be glad and rejoice in thee, and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified!5But I am afflicted and needy: make haste unto me, O God. Thou art my help and my deliverer: O Jehovah, make no delay.Darby's Synopsis
Psalm 70 embodies the desire of the Spirit of Christ in connection with His sufferings from man, (but expresses itself, as in the remnant in that day); that His enemies may be confounded - those that say, Aha, aha, as they did when He was on the cross; that those that seek Jehovah may rejoice, and be glad and rejoice, and those who look for His deliverance say, Let God be magnified - that is, enjoy that deliverance.
