Psalms 70

1 For the end, by David for a remembrance, that the Lord may save me. Draw near, O God, to my help.

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

2 Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek my soul: let them be turned backward and put to shame, that wish me evil.

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

3 Let them that say to me, Aha, aha, be turned back and put to shame immediately.

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

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.

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

5 But I am poor and needy; O God, help me: you are my helper and deliverer, O Lord, delay not.

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