Psalms 70

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

Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. ElikaDavida. Isikhalazo. Phangisa, Oh Nkulunkulu, ungisindise; Oh Thixo, woza masinyane uzongisiza.

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

Sengathi labo abafuna impilo yami bangayangiswa basanganiswe; sengathi bonke abafisa ukuwa kwami bangabuyiselwa emuva beyangekile.

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

Sengathi labo abathi kimi, “Ehe! Ehe!” bangafulathela ngenxa yehlazo labo.

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.

Kodwa akuthi bonke abakudingayo bathokoze bajabule kuwe; akuthi labo abathanda insindiso yakho bahlale besithi, “uThixo kadunyiswe!”

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

Ikanti ngingumyanga ngiyaswela; woza masinyane kimi, Oh Nkulunkulu. Ulusizo lwami lomkhululi wami; Oh Thixo, ungaphuzi.
