Psalms 70

1 For the chief musician. A psalm of David; to bring to remembrance. Save me, God! Yahweh, come quickly and help me.

Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide. Pempho. Fulumirani Mulungu kundipulumutsa; Yehova bwerani msanga kudzandithandiza.

2 Let those who try to take my life be ashamed and humiliated; let them be turned back and brought to dishonor, those who take pleasure in my pain.

Iwo amene akufunafuna moyo wanga achititsidwe manyazi ndi kusokonezedwa; onse amene akukhumba chiwonongeko changa abwezedwe mopanda ulemu.

3 Let them be turned back because of their shame, those who say, “Aha, aha.”

Onse amene akunena kwa ine kuti, “Aha, aha,” abwerere chifukwa cha manyazi awo.

4 Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; let those who love your salvation always say, “May God be praised.”

Koma onse amene akufunafuna Inu akondwere ndi kusangalala mwa Inu; iwo amene amakonda chipulumutso chanu nthawi zonse anene kuti, “Mulungu akuzike!”

5 But I am poor and needy; hurry to me, God; you are my help and you rescue me. Yahweh, do not delay.

Koma ine ndine wosauka ndi wosowa; bwerani msanga kwa ine Inu Mulungu. Inu ndinu thandizo langa ndi momboli wanga; Inu Yehova musachedwe.
