Zaburi 70

1 Uniokoe, Mungu! Yahwe, njoo haraka na unisaidie mimi.

For the music director. A psalm of David. For a memorial. God, save me! Hurry, Lord, help me!

2 Wale wajaribuo kuchukua uhai wangu waaibishwe na kufedheheshwa; warudishwe nyuma na wasiheshimiwe, wale wafurahiao katika maumivu yangu.

Please defeat and humiliate the people who are trying to kill me; turn back in disgrace those who want to hurt me.

3 Warudishwe nyuma kwa sababu ya aibu yao, wale wasemao, “Aha, aha.”

May they be shocked at their defeat, those who taunted me.

4 Wale wakutafutao wafurahi na kushangilia katika wewe; wale waupendao wokovu wako siku zote waseme, “Mungu asifiwe.”

But may everyone who comes to you be happy and glad; may those who love your salvation always say, “God is great!”

5 Lakini mimi ni maskini na muhitaji; harakisha kwangu, Mungu; wewe ni msaada wangu nawe huniokoa mimi. Yahwe, usichelewe.

As for me, I am poor and needy. Hurry, God, help me! Save me! Lord, don't wait!
