Prayer for Relief from Adversaries

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. To bring to remembrance.
  1Make haste, O God, to deliver me!
   Make haste to help me, O Lord!
  2Let them be ashamed and confounded
   Who seek my life;
   Let them be turned back and confused
   Who desire my hurt.
   3Let them be turned back because of their shame,
   Who say, “Aha, aha!”
  4Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You;
   And let those who love Your salvation say continually,
   “Let God be magnified!”
  5But I am poor and needy;
   Make haste to me, O God!
   You are my help and my deliverer;
   O Lord, do not delay.
