Psalmorum 70

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

“To the chief musician, by David, to bring to remembrance.” O God, [arise] to deliver me; O Lord, make haste to help me.

2 confundantur et revereantur qui quaerunt animam meam

Let those that seek after my life be made ashamed and put to the blush: let those that desire my unhappiness be turned backward and put to confusion.

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

Let them be turned backward in consequence of their shame, that say, Aha, aha.

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

Let all those that seek thee be glad and rejoice in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, God is great.

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, O God: come hastily unto me; my help and my deliverer art thou: O Lord, do not delay.
