Psalms 70:1

Make haste The words, as the italics indicate, are not in the Hebrew; and as the text stands, we must either supply make hastefrom the next line, or render according to the Heb. idiom found in Isaiah 38:20, God is ready to deliver me. But probably the first word of the verse as it stands in Psalms 40:13 should be restored, Be pleased. This word would be a link of connexion with Psalms 69:13, in a time when thou pleasest. make haste to help me Cp. Psalms 22:19; Psalms 38:22.
