Psalms 70

1 For the Chief Musician. By David. A reminder. Hurry, God, to deliver me. Come quickly to help me, LORD.

I OLA au, e ke Akua, E wikiwiki mai, e Iehova, e kokua mai ia'u.

2 Let them be disappointed and confounded who seek my soul. Let those who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.

E hoohilahilaia, e hoohokaia hoi ka poe e imi ana i ko'u uhane: E hoohuliia ihope, a hoka ka poe makemake i ka hewa no'u.

3 Let them be turned because of their shame who say, “Aha! Aha!”

E hoihoiia ihope i uku no ko lakou hilahila, Ka poe i olelo mai, Aia la! Aia la!

4 Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you. Let those who love your salvation continually say, “Let God be exalted!”

Aka, e olioli a e hauoli hoi ka poe a pau i imi aku ia oe: A e olelo mau ka poe a pau i makemake i kou ola, E hoonuiia ke Akua.

5 But I am poor and needy. Come to me quickly, God. You are my help and my deliverer. LORD, do not delay.

Aka, ua ilihune au a ua nele hoi; E holo koke mai ia'u, e ke Akua: O oe no ko'u Kokua a me ko'u Hoola; E Iehova, mai hookaulua aku oe.
