< Psalmorum 70 >
1 in finem David in rememoratione eo quod salvum me fecit Dominus Deus in adiutorium meum intende Domine ad adiuvandum me festina;
God, please save me! Yahweh, come quickly to help me!
2 confundantur et revereantur qui quaerunt animam meam
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 avertantur retrorsum et erubescant qui volunt mihi mala avertantur statim erubescentes qui dicunt mihi euge euge
I hope/desire that you will cause them to become dismayed and ashamed [because you have defeated them].
4 exultent et laetentur in te omnes qui quaerunt te et dicant semper magnificetur Deus qui diligunt salutare tuum
[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 ego vero egenus et pauper Deus adiuva me adiutor meus et liberator meus es tu Domine ne moreris
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!
