Psalms 70

1 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.

Fún adarí orin. Ti Dafidi. Ẹ̀bẹ̀. Yára, Ọlọ́run, láti gbà mí là, Olúwa, wá kánkán láti ràn mí lọ́wọ́.

2 May those who seek my soul be confounded and awed.

Kí àwọn tí ń wá ọkàn mi kí a dójútì wọ́n, kí wọn sì dààmú; kí àwọn tó ń wá ìparun mi yí ẹ̀yìn padà nínú ìtìjú.

3 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.”

Kí a pa wọ́n ní ẹ̀yìn dà fún èrè ìtìjú àwọn tí ń wí pé, “Háà! Háà!”

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

Ṣùgbọ́n kí àwọn tí ó ń wá ọ ó máa yọ̀ kí inú wọn kí ó sì máa dùn nípa rẹ, kí àwọn tí ó ń fẹ́ ìgbàlà rẹ máa wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí a gbé Ọlọ́run ga!”

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

Ṣùgbọ́n mo jẹ́ òtòṣì àti aláìní; wa kánkán sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi, Ọlọ́run. Ìwọ ni olùrànlọ́wọ́ àti olùdáǹdè mi; Olúwa, má ṣe dúró pẹ́.
