Psalms 70

1 To the Chief Musician. David’s. To call to Remembrance. [Be pleased] O God, to rescue me, O Yahweh, to help me—make haste.

in finem David in rememoratione eo quod salvum me fecit Dominus Deus in adiutorium meum intende Domine ad adiuvandum me festina;

2 Let them turn pale and then at once blush, Who are seeking my life, —Let them draw back, and be confounded, Who are taking pleasure in my misfortune;

confundantur et revereantur qui quaerunt animam meam

3 Let them turn back, on account of their own shame, Who are saying, Aha! Aha!

avertantur retrorsum et erubescant qui volunt mihi mala avertantur statim erubescentes qui dicunt mihi euge euge

4 Let all them be glad and rejoice in thee, Yea, let them, who are seekers of thee, —say continually, God be magnified! Who are lovers of thy salvation.

exultent et laetentur in te omnes qui quaerunt te et dicant semper magnificetur Deus qui diligunt salutare tuum

5 But, I, being humbled and needy, O God, haste to me, —My help and my deliverer, art thou, O Yahweh do not tarry.

ego vero egenus et pauper Deus adiuva me adiutor meus et liberator meus es tu Domine ne moreris
