Psalms 70

1 For the music director. A psalm of David. For a memorial. God, save me! Hurry, Lord, help me!

Al Músico principal: Salmo de David, para conmemorar. OH Dios, [acude] á librarme; apresúrate, oh Dios, á socorrerme.

2 Please defeat and humiliate the people who are trying to kill me; turn back in disgrace those who want to hurt me.

Sean avergonzados y confusos los que buscan mi vida; sean vueltos atrás y avergonzados los que mi mal desean.

3 May they be shocked at their defeat, those who taunted me.

Sean vueltos, en pago de su afrenta [hecha], los que dicen: ¡Ah! ¡ah!

4 But may everyone who comes to you be happy and glad; may those who love your salvation always say, “God is great!”

Gócense y alégrense en ti todos los que te buscan; y digan siempre los que aman tu salud: Engrandecido sea Dios.

5 As for me, I am poor and needy. Hurry, God, help me! Save me! Lord, don't wait!

Yo estoy afligido y menesteroso; apresúrate á mí, oh Dios: ayuda mía y mi libertador eres tú; oh Jehová, no te detengas.
