Zaburi 70

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

For the chief musician. A psalm of David; to bring to remembrance. Save me, God! Yahweh, come quickly and help me.

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

Let those who try to take my life be ashamed and humiliated; let them be turned back and brought to dishonor, those who take pleasure in my pain.

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

Let them be turned back because of their shame, those who say, “Aha, aha.”

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

Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; let those who love your salvation always say, “May God be praised.”

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

But I am poor and needy; hurry to me, God; you are my help and you rescue me. Yahweh, do not delay.
