1Al direttore del coro. Di Davide. Per far ricordare. Affrèttati, o Dio, a liberarmi! Signore, affrèttati in mio aiuto!2Siano confusi e si vergognino quelli che cercano l’anima mia! Voltino le spalle e siano coperti d’infamia quelli che desiderano il mio male!3Indietreggino, sotto il peso della loro infamia, quelli che mi deridono.4Gioiscano ed esultino in te quelli che ti cercano; e quelli che amano la tua salvezza dicano sempre: «Sia glorificato Dio!»5Ma io sono misero e povero; o Dio, affrèttati a venire in mio aiuto; tu sei il mio sostegno e il mio liberatore; Signore, non tardare!
1Dem Chorleiter. Von David. Zum Gedächtnis[1].2Eile, Gott, mich zu retten, HERR, zu meiner Hilfe! (Sal 22,20)3Es sollen sich schämen und zuschanden werden, die nach meinem Leben trachten! Es sollen zurückweichen und beschimpft sein, die Gefallen haben an[2] meinem Unglück! (Sal 71,13)4Sie sollen umkehren[3] wegen ihrer Schande, die da[4] sagen: Haha! Haha!5Jauchzen und deiner sich freuen sollen alle, die dich suchen! Stets sollen sagen: »Groß ist Gott!«, die deine Rettung lieben.6Ich aber bin elend und arm; Gott, eile zu mir! Mein Helfer und mein Retter bist du! HERR, zögere nicht! (Sal 25,16; Sal 71,12; Sal 141,1)
1To the choirmaster. Of David, for the memorial offering. Make haste, O God, to deliver me! O Lord, make haste to help me! (1Cr 16,4; Sal 38,1; Sal 40,13)2Let them be put to shame and confusion who seek my life! Let them be turned back and brought to dishonor who delight in my hurt!3Let them turn back because of their shame who say, “Aha, Aha!”4May all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you! May those who love your salvation say evermore, “God is great!”5But I am poor and needy; hasten to me, O God! You are my help and my deliverer; O Lord, do not delay! (Sal 141,1)
Salmo 70
King James Version
1To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance. Make haste , O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O LORD.2Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them be turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt.3Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha.4Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.5But I am poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: thou art my help and my deliverer; O LORD, make no tarrying.
