(A)Let them be turned back because of their shame,
Who say, [a]“Aha, aha!”

Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You;
And let those who love Your salvation say continually,
“Let God be magnified!”

(B)But I am poor and needy;
(C)Make haste to me, O God!
You are my help and my deliverer;
O Lord, do not delay.

may those who long for your saving help always say,
    “The Lord is great!”(D)

But as for me, I am poor and needy;(E)
    come quickly to me,(F) O God.
You are my help(G) and my deliverer;(H)
    Lord, do not delay.(I)
