求助的祷告

大卫作的祷告诗,交给乐长。

70 上帝啊,求你快快拯救我;
耶和华啊,求你速速帮助我。
愿谋取我性命的人蒙羞受辱,
愿喜欢我遭害的人狼狈逃窜。
愿那些哈哈嘲笑我的人羞愧而退。

愿所有寻求你的人因你而欢喜快乐,
愿渴望蒙你拯救的人时常说:
“上帝当受尊崇!”
我贫穷困苦,
上帝啊,求你快来救我。
你是我的帮助,是我的拯救。
耶和华啊,求你不要迟延。

O Yahweh, Do Not Delay

For the choir director. Of David. To bring to remembrance.

70 (A)O God, hasten to deliver me;
O Yahweh, hasten to my help!
(B)Let those be ashamed and humiliated
Who seek my [a]life;
Let those be turned back and dishonored
Who delight in [b]evil against me.
(C)Let those [c]turn back because of their shame
Who say, “Aha, aha!”

Let those be joyful and glad in You
All who seek You
And let them say continually,
“Let God be magnified,”
Those who love Your salvation.
But (D)I am afflicted and needy;
(E)Hasten to me, O God!
You are my help and my protector;
O Yahweh, do not delay.
