Psalm 71:12

American Standard Version (1901)

O God, be not far from me; O my God, make haste to help me.

See the chapter Copy

Thou hast seen it, O Jehovah; keep not silence: O Lord, be not far from me.

But I am poor and needy; Make haste unto me, O God: Thou art my help and my deliverer; O Jehovah, make no tarrying.

Be not far from me; for trouble is near; For there is none to help.

Why standest thou afar off, O Jehovah? Why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble?

Make haste to answer me, O Jehovah; my spirit faileth: Hide not thy face from me, Lest I become like them that go down into the pit.

Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: Ransom me because of mine enemies.

Be pleased, O Jehovah, to deliver me: Make haste to help me, O Jehovah.

But be not thou far off, O Jehovah: O thou my succor, haste thee to help me.
