Psalms 70

1 To the chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David: to bring to remembrance. Make haste, O God, to deliver me; Jehovah, [hasten] to my help.

Podvizaj se, oh Bog, da me osvobodiš; podvizaj se, da mi pomagaš, oh Gospod.

2 Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion that seek after my soul; let them be turned backward and confounded that take pleasure in mine adversity;

Naj bodo osramočeni in zbegani [tisti], ki strežejo po moji duši. Naj bodo obrnjeni nazaj in postavljeni v zmedenost, ki želijo mojo bolečino.

3 Let them turn back because of their shame that say, Aha! Aha!

Naj bodo za nagrado svojega sramotenja obrnjeni nazaj, ki pravijo: »Aha, aha.«

4 Let all those that seek thee be glad and rejoice in thee, and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified!

Naj se vsi tisti, ki te iščejo, veselijo in bodo veseli v tebi. Naj tisti, ki ljubijo tvojo rešitev duše, nenehno govorijo: »Naj bo Bog poveličan.«

5 But I am afflicted and needy: make haste unto me, O God. Thou art my help and my deliverer: O Jehovah, make no delay.

Toda jaz sem ubog in pomoči potreben. Podvizaj se k meni, oh Bog. Ti si moja pomoč in moj osvoboditelj; oh Gospod, ne mudi se.
