PSAL. LXX.
To the chief musician, a Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance.
The Contents of this Psalm, are almost all to be found, Psal. 40. 13. &c. Nor is it strange that they are here repeated, because the same or like Occasions were oft repeated; and David's returning Distresses, might well make him sometimes repeat the same Words. And as these things were joyned with ma∣ny other passages, in Psal. 40. so they are distinctly▪repeated, as a Form of Prayer, which himself or others, might use in such a Condition. What is necessary for the understand∣ing of this Psalm: The Reader may find in the Notes, on Psal. 40.
1 MAke hast, O God, to deliver me: make hast † to help me, O LORD.
2 Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them be turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt.
3 Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame, that say, Aha, Aha.
4 Let those that seek thee rejoyce, and be glad in thee: and let such as love thy salvation, say continually, Let God be magnified.
5 But I am poor and needy, make haste unto me, O God: thou art my help and my delive∣rer, O LORD, make no tarrying.
