Psalms 70

1 For the Chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David; to bring to remembrance. [Make haste], O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O LORD.

David ƒe ha na hɛnɔ la. Kukuɖeɖe. O! Mawu, netsɔ nàɖem; O! Yehowa, va kaba nàxɔ nam.

2 Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them be turned backward and brought to dishonour that delight in my hurt.

Ŋukpe kple tɔtɔ neva ame siwo le nye agbe yome tim la dzi. Ame siwo le nye gbegblẽ dim la negbugbɔ ɖe megbe kple ŋukpe.

3 Let them be turned back by reason of their shame that say, Aha, Aha.

Na be ame siwo le gbɔgblɔm be, “Ɛhɛ̃! Ɛhɛ̃!” la natrɔ megbe adzo kple ŋukpe.

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

Ke ame siwo dia wò la netso aseye; woakpɔ dzidzɔ le mewò, eye ame siwo lɔ̃a wò xɔname la negblɔ ɖaa be, “Woado Mawu ɖe dzi ɖaa!”

5 But I am poor and needy; make haste unto me, O God: thou art my help and my deliverer; O LORD, make no tarrying.

Ke nye la, O Mawu, meda ahe, eye hiã tum, eya ta va gbɔnye kaba. O! Yehowa, mègahe ɖe megbe o, elabena wòe nye nye xɔnametɔ kple nye Ɖela.
