A Psalm of David.

Come Quickly to Me

Psalm 70:1–5

1A Psalm, by David. O Jehovah, I have called Thee, haste to me, Give ear to my voice when I call to Thee.+ 2My prayer is prepared--incense before Thee, The lifting up of my hands--the evening present.+ 3Set, O Jehovah, a watch for my mouth, Watch Thou over the door of my lips.+ 4Incline not my heart to an evil thing, To do habitually actions in wickedness, With men working iniquity, Yea, I eat not of their pleasant things.+ 5The righteous doth beat me in kindness. And doth reprove me, Oil of the head my head disalloweth not, For still my prayer is about their vexations.+ 6Their judges have been released by the sides of a rock, And they have heard my sayings, For they have been pleasant.+ 7As one tilling and ripping up in the land, Have our bones been scattered at the command of Saul.+ 8But to Thee, O Jehovah, my Lord, are mine eyes, In Thee I have trusted, Make not bare my soul.+ 9Keep me from the gin they laid for me, Even snares of workers of iniquity.+ 10The wicked fall in their nets together, till I pass over!+
