Psalms 70

1 Unto the end, a psalm for David, to bring to remembrance that the Lord saved him. O God, come to my assistance; O Lord, make haste to help me.

Uniokoe, Mungu! Yahwe, njoo haraka na unisaidie mimi.

2 Let them be confounded and ashamed that seek my soul:

Wale wajaribuo kuchukua uhai wangu waaibishwe na kufedheheshwa; warudishwe nyuma na wasiheshimiwe, wale wafurahiao katika maumivu yangu.

3 Let them be turned backward, and blush for shame that desire evils to me: Let them be presently turned away blushing for shame that say to me: Tis well, tis well.

Warudishwe nyuma kwa sababu ya aibu yao, wale wasemao, “Aha, aha.”

4 Let all that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee; and let such as love thy salvation say always: The Lord be magnified.

Wale wakutafutao wafurahi na kushangilia katika wewe; wale waupendao wokovu wako siku zote waseme, “Mungu asifiwe.”

5 But I am needy and poor; O God, help me. Thou art my helper and my deliverer: O Lord, make no delay.

Lakini mimi ni maskini na muhitaji; harakisha kwangu, Mungu; wewe ni msaada wangu nawe huniokoa mimi. Yahwe, usichelewe.
