Psalmi 70

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

Unto the end. A Psalm of David, in remembrance that the Lord had saved him. O God, reach out to help me. O Lord, hasten to assist me.

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

May those who seek my soul be confounded and awed.

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

May those who wish evils upon me be turned back and blush with shame. May they be turned away immediately, blushing with shame, who say to me: “Well, well.”

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 who seek you exult and rejoice in you, and let those who love your salvation forever say: “The Lord be magnified.”

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

I am truly destitute and poor. O God, assist me. You are my helper and my deliverer. O Lord, do not delay.
