< Zaburi 70 >
1 Kwa mwimbishaji. Zaburi ya Daudi. Maombi. Ee Mungu, ufanye haraka kuniokoa; Ee Bwana, njoo hima unisaidie.
For the Leader. A Psalm of David; to make memorial. O God, to deliver me, O LORD, to help me, make haste.
2 Wale wanaotafuta kuuondoa uhai wangu, waaibishwe na kufadhaishwa; wote wanaotamani kuangamizwa kwangu, warudishwe nyuma kwa aibu.
Let them be ashamed and abashed that seek after my soul; let them be turned backward and brought to confusion that delight in my hurt.
3 Wale waniambiao, “Aha! Aha!” warudi nyuma kwa sababu ya aibu yao.
Let them be turned back by reason of their shame that say: 'Aha, aha.'
4 Lakini wote wakutafutao washangilie na kukufurahia, wale wapendao wokovu wako siku zote waseme, “Mungu na atukuzwe!”
Let all those that seek Thee rejoice and be glad in Thee; and let such as love Thy salvation say continually: 'Let God be magnified.'
5 Lakini bado mimi ni maskini na mhitaji; Ee Mungu, unijie haraka. Wewe ndiwe msaada wangu na mwokozi wangu; Ee Bwana, usikawie.
But I am poor and needy; O God, make haste unto me; Thou art my help and my deliverer; O LORD, tarry not.
