1 Make haste, O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O Lord.

69:1 In finem. Psalmus David in rememorationem, quod salvum fecerit eum Dominus.

2 ¶ Deus, in adjutorium meum intende;
Domine, ad adjuvandum me festina.

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 Confundantur, et revereantur, qui quærunt animam meam.

3 Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha.

4 Avertantur retrorsum, et erubescant, qui volunt mihi mala;
avertantur statim erubescentes qui dicunt mihi: Euge, euge!

4 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.

5 Exsultent et lætentur in te omnes qui quærunt te;
et dicant semper: Magnificetur Dominus, qui diligunt salutare tuum.

5 But I am poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: thou art my help and my deliverer; O Lord, make no tarrying.

6 Ego vero egenus et pauper sum;
Deus, adjuva me.
Adjutor meus et liberator meus es tu;
Domine, ne moreris.
