< Psaumes 70 >

1 Au chef des chantres. De David. Pour souvenir. O Dieu, hâte-toi de me délivrer! Éternel, hâte-toi de me secourir!
God, please save me! Yahweh, come quickly to help me!
2 Qu’ils soient honteux et confus, ceux qui en veulent à ma vie! Qu’ils reculent et rougissent, ceux qui désirent ma perte!
Humble those who are happy about my troubles/difficulties, and cause them to be disgraced/ashamed. Chase away those who are trying to kill me.
3 Qu’ils retournent en arrière par l’effet de leur honte, Ceux qui disent: Ah! Ah!
I hope/desire that you will cause them to become dismayed and ashamed [because you have defeated them].
4 Que tous ceux qui te cherchent Soient dans l’allégresse et se réjouissent en toi! Que ceux qui aiment ton salut Disent sans cesse: Exalté soit Dieu!
[But] I hope/desire that all those who go to [worship] you will be very joyful [DOU]. I want those who love you because you saved them to shout repeatedly [HYP], “God is great!”
5 Moi, je suis pauvre et indigent: O Dieu, hâte-toi en ma faveur! Tu es mon aide et mon libérateur: Éternel, ne tarde pas!
As for me, I am poor and needy [DOU]; [so] God, come quickly to help me! Yahweh, you are the one who saves and helps me, [so please] come quickly!
