Zaburi 70

1 Kwa mwimbishaji. Zaburi ya Daudi. Maombi. Ee Mungu, ufanye haraka kuniokoa; Ee Bwana, njoo hima unisaidie.

To the chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David: to bring to remembrance. Make haste, O God, to deliver me; Jehovah, [hasten] to my help.

2 Wale wanaotafuta kuuondoa uhai wangu, waaibishwe na kufadhaishwa; wote wanaotamani kuangamizwa kwangu, warudishwe nyuma kwa aibu.

Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion that seek after my soul; let them be turned backward and confounded that take pleasure in mine adversity;

3 Wale waniambiao, “Aha! Aha!” warudi nyuma kwa sababu ya aibu yao.

Let them turn back because 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 be glad and rejoice 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 afflicted and needy: make haste unto me, O God. Thou art my help and my deliverer: O Jehovah, make no delay.
