Psalmorum 70

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

For the choirmaster. Of David. To bring remembrance. Make haste, O God, to deliver me! Hurry, O LORD, to help me!

2 confundantur et revereantur qui quaerunt animam meam

May those who seek my life be ashamed and confounded; may those who wish me harm be repelled and humiliated.

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

May those who say, “Aha, aha!” retreat because of their shame.

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

May all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; may those who love Your salvation always say, “Let God be magnified!”

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

But I am poor and needy; hurry to me, O God. You are my help and my deliverer; O LORD, do not delay.
