Psalm 70

  1. May God be my help, my Savior, my shield in battle.
  2. May God, who is my hope, rescue me from the hands of my enemies, lift me up from those who rise up against me.
  3. May God, who is my Savior, bless the king and answer him when he calls.
  4. May God be with him and bless him, and may he be lifted up forever.
  5. May God bless him with blessings from heaven above and blessings from the depths below, blessings on the head of his enemies, and not a single fault to be found among his descendants.
  6. May they fear him all day long, and may all who put their trust in him be blessed.
