< Psalms 70 >
1 For the end, by David for a remembrance, that the Lord may save me. Draw near, O God, to my help.
達味紀念歌,交與樂官。 天主,求您快來拯救我,上主,求您速來援助我。
2 Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek my soul: let them be turned backward and put to shame, that wish me evil.
願那些圖謀殺害我的人,受辱退去,願那些喜歡我遭難的人,含羞出走!
3 Let them that say to me, Aha, aha, be turned back and put to shame immediately.
願那些向我哈哈戲笑的人,個個滿面羞慚而退去無影?
4 Let all that seek you exult and be glad in you: and let those that love your salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.
願那些尋求您的人,都因您歡欣鼓舞,願戀慕您救恩的人,都常說:大哉天主!
5 But I am poor and needy; O God, help me: you are my helper and deliverer, O Lord, delay not.
天主,我實在卑微又貧苦,求您速來救我;上主,您是我的助佑和救援,求您不要延擱。
