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.
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).
Sean vueltos atrás[b] por causa de su vergüenza
los que dicen: ¡Ajá, ajá(C)!

Regocíjense y alégrense en ti todos los que te buscan;
que digan continuamente: ¡Engrandecido sea Dios!
los que aman tu salvación.
Mas yo estoy afligido y necesitado;
oh Dios, ven pronto a mí.
Tú eres mi socorro y mi libertador;
Señor, no te tardes(D).

Psalm 70

For the music leader. Of David. For the memorial offering.

70 Hurry, God, to deliver me;
    hurry, Lord, to help me!
Let those who seek my life be ashamed and humiliated!
    Let them fall back and be disgraced—
        those people who delight in my downfall!
Let those who say, “Aha! Aha!”
    stop because of their shameful behavior.
But let all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you,
    and let those who love your saving help say again and again:
        “God is great!”
But me? I’m poor and needy.
    Hurry to me, God!
You are my helper and my deliverer.
    Oh, Lord, don’t delay!

Psalm 70[a](A)

For the director of music. Of David. A petition.

Hasten, O God, to save me;
    come quickly, Lord, to help me.(B)

May those who want to take my life(C)
    be put to shame and confusion;
may all who desire my ruin
    be turned back in disgrace.(D)
May those who say to me, “Aha! Aha!”(E)
    turn back because of their shame.
But may all who seek you(F)
    rejoice and be glad(G) in you;
may those who long for your saving help always say,
    “The Lord is great!”(H)

But as for me, I am poor and needy;(I)
    come quickly to me,(J) O God.
You are my help(K) and my deliverer;(L)
    Lord, do not delay.(M)
