Verses related to Salmos, 70:

Psalm 70, by David, is a brief and urgent plea for divine help. Why does the psalmist ask for a quick answer from God? This concise text expresses the immediate need for help against enemies and the desire for the faithful to rejoice in God. The psalm addresses themes of trust, humility and God's readiness to save. Psalm 70 offers a model of prayer for times of acute crisis. Consider with us five biblical passages that echo the urgent cry of this succinct psalm.

Philippians 1:19-20: "For I know that through your prayers and the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, what has happened to me will result in my deliverance. I look forward to it and hope that in no way will I be embarrassed. On the contrary, with all the determination as always, Christ will also now be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death." - Paul's confidence in the midst of adversity reflects the spirit of Psalm 70.

2 Thessalonians 1:6-7: "Indeed, it is righteous of God to repay those who trouble you with tribulation, and to give relief to you who are being afflicted, and to us also. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven, with his powerful angels" - This passage about divine justice echoes the call for divine intervention in Psalm 70.

1 Peter 4:13: "But rejoice as you share in the sufferings of Christ, so that when his glory is revealed you may also rejoice with great joy." - This verse reflects the expectation of future joy in the midst of present suffering, a theme present in Psalm 70.

Revelation 22:20: "He who bears witness to these things says, 'Yes, I am coming soon!' Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!" - This urgent plea for the coming of the Lord echoes the plea for quick help in Psalm 70.

Hebrews 13:6: "Therefore we can say with confidence: 'The Lord is my helper, I will not fear. What can men do to me?'" - This declaration of trust reflects the attitude of the psalmist in Psalm 70, who looks to God for help in the face of human opposition.
