Psalm 71:12

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

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

Forsake me not, Jehovah; O my God, be not far from me.

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

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

But thou, Jehovah, be not far from me; O my strength, haste thee to help me.

Be pleased, O Jehovah, to deliver me; Jehovah, make haste to my help.

Draw nigh unto my soul, be its redeemer; ransom me because of mine enemies.

{To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David: to bring to remembrance.} Make haste, O God, to deliver me; Jehovah, hasten to my help.

But I am afflicted and needy: make haste unto me, O God. Thou art my help and my deliverer: O Jehovah, make no delay.

Answer me speedily, O Jehovah; my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, or I shall be like unto them that go down into the pit.
