Psalmi 70

1 Zborovođi. Davidov. Za spomen. O Bože, spasi me, Jahve, u pomoć mi pohitaj!

To the chief music-maker. Of David. To keep in memory. Let your salvation come quickly, O God; come quickly to my help, O Lord.

2 Nek' se postide i smetu svi koji mi o glavi rade! Nek' odstupe i nek' se posrame koji se nesreći mojoj raduju!

Let those who go after my soul have shame and trouble; let those who have evil designs against me be turned back and made foolish.

3 Nek' uzmaknu u sramoti svojoj koji zlurado na me grohoću!

Let those who say Aha, aha! be turned back as a reward of their shame.

4 Neka kliču i nek' se vesele u tebi svi koji tebe traže! Neka govore svagda: “Velik je Bog!” svi koji spasenje tvoje ljube!

Let all those who are looking for you be glad and have joy in you; let the lovers of your salvation ever say, May God be great.

5 A bijedan sam ja i nevoljan, o Bože, u pomoć mi pohitaj! Ti si pomoć moja i spasitelj; Jahve, ne kasni!

But I am poor and in need; come to me quickly, O God; you are my help and my saviour; let there be no waiting, O Lord.
