Oración en la persecución
Para el director del coro. Salmo de David. Para conmemorar.
70 (A)Oh Dios, apresúrate a librarme;
apresúrate, oh Señor, a socorrerme.
2 Sean avergonzados y humillados
los que buscan mi vida[a];
sean vueltos atrás y cubiertos de ignominia
los que se complacen en mi mal(B).
3 Sean vueltos atrás[b] por causa de su vergüenza
los que dicen: ¡Ajá, ajá(C)!
4 Regocíjense y alégrense en ti todos los que te buscan;
que digan continuamente: ¡Engrandecido sea Dios!
los que aman tu salvación.
5 Mas yo estoy afligido y necesitado;
oh Dios, ven pronto a mí.
Tú eres mi socorro y mi libertador;
Señor, no te tardes(D).
