Psalm 70
1 Ein Psalm Davids, vorzusingen zum Gedächtnis. Eile, Gott, mich zu erretten, HERR, mir zu helfen!
God, please save me! Yahweh, come quickly to help me!
2 Es müssen sich schämen und zuschanden werden, die nach meiner Seele stehen; sie müssen zurückkehren und gehöhnet werden, die mir übels wünschen,
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 daß sie müssen wiederum zu Schanden werden, die da über mich schreien: Da, da!
I hope/desire that you will cause them to become dismayed and ashamed [because you have defeated them].
4 Freuen und fröhlich müssen sein an dir, die nach dir fragen; und die dein Heil lieben, immer sagen: Hochgelobt sei Gott!
[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!”
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!
