Audio: World English Bible (WEB), read by Winfred W. Henson · About the recordings
1 In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: We have a strong city; salvation is established as its walls and ramparts.
1 EN aquel día cantarán este cantar en tierra de Judá: Fuerte ciudad tenemos: salud puso [Dios] por muros y antemuro.
2 Open the gates so a righteous nation may enter— one that remains faithful.
2 Abrid las puertas, y entrará la gente justa, guardadora de verdades.
3 You will keep in perfect peace the steadfast of mind, because he trusts in You.
3 Tú [le] guardarás en completa paz, [cuyo] pensamiento en [ti] persevera; porque en ti se ha confiado.
4 Trust in the LORD forever, because GOD the LORD is the Rock eternal.
4 Confiad en Jehová perpetuamente: porque en el Señor Jehová está la fortaleza de los siglos.
5 For He has humbled those who dwell on high; He lays the lofty city low. He brings it down to the ground; He casts it into the dust.
5 Porque derribó los que moraban en lugar sublime: humilló la ciudad ensalzada, humillóla hasta la tierra, derribóla hasta el polvo.
6 Feet trample it down— the feet of the oppressed, the steps of the poor.
6 Hollarála pie, los pies del afligido, los pasos de los menesterosos.
7 The path of the righteous is level; You clear a straight path for the upright.
7 El camino del justo es rectitud: Tú, Recto, pesas el camino del justo.
8 Yes, we wait for You, O LORD; we walk in the path of Your judgments. Your name and renown are the desire of our souls.
8 También en el camino de tus juicios, oh Jehová, te hemos esperado: á tu nombre y á tu memoria es el deseo del alma.
9 My soul longs for You in the night; indeed, my spirit seeks You at dawn. For when Your judgments come upon the earth, the people of the world learn righteousness.
9 Con mi alma te he deseado en la noche; y en tanto que me durare el espíritu en medio de mí, madrugaré á buscarte: porque luego que hay juicios tuyos en la tierra, los moradores del mundo aprenden justicia.
10 Though grace is shown to the wicked man, he does not learn righteousness. In the land of righteousness he acts unjustly and fails to see the majesty of the LORD.
10 Alcanzará piedad el impío, y no aprenderá justicia; en tierra de rectitud hará iniquidad, y no mirará á la majestad de Jehová.
11 O LORD, Your hand is upraised, but they do not see it. They will see Your zeal for Your people and be put to shame. The fire set for Your enemies will consume them!
11 Jehová, bien que se levante tu mano, no ven: verán [al cabo], y se avergonzarán los que envidian á [tu] pueblo; y á tus enemigos fuego los consumirá.
12 O LORD, You will establish peace for us. For all that we have accomplished, You have done for us.
12 Jehová, tú nos depararás paz; porque también obraste en nosotros todas nuestras obras.
13 O LORD our God, other lords besides You have had dominion, but Your name alone do we confess.
13 Jehová Dios nuestro, señores se han enseñoreado de nosotros fuera de ti; mas en ti solamente nos acordaremos de tu nombre.
14 The dead will not live; the departed spirits will not rise. Therefore You have punished and destroyed them; You have wiped out all memory of them.
14 Muertos [son], no vivirán: han fallecido, no resucitarán: porque los visitaste, y destruiste, y deshiciste toda su memoria.
15 You have enlarged the nation, O LORD; You have enlarged the nation. You have gained glory for Yourself; You have extended all the borders of the land.
15 Añadiste al pueblo, oh Jehová, añadiste al pueblo: hicístete glorioso: extendíste[lo] [hasta] todos los términos de la tierra.
16 O LORD, they sought You in their distress; when You disciplined them, they poured out a quiet prayer.
16 Jehová, en la tribulación te buscaron: derramaron oración [cuando] los castigaste.
17 As a woman with child about to give birth writhes and cries out in pain, so were we in Your presence, O LORD.
17 Como la preñada [cuando] se acerca el parto gime, y da gritos con sus dolores, así hemos sido delante de ti, oh Jehová.
18 We were with child; we writhed in pain; but we gave birth to wind. We have given no salvation to the earth, nor brought any life into the world.
18 Concebimos, tuvimos dolores de parto, parimos como viento: salud ninguna hicimos en la tierra, ni cayeron los moradores del mundo.
19 Your dead will live; their bodies will rise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in the dust! For your dew is like the dew of the morning, and the earth will bring forth her dead.
19 Tus muertos vivirán; [junto con] mi cuerpo muerto resucitarán. ¡Despertad y cantad, moradores del polvo! porque tu rocío, [cual] rocío de hortalizas; y la tierra echará los muertos.
20 Go, my people, enter your rooms and shut your doors behind you. Hide yourselves a little while until the wrath has passed.
20 Anda, pueblo mío, éntrate en tus aposentos, cierra tras ti tus puertas; escóndete un poquito, por un momento, en tanto que pasa la ira.
21 For behold, the LORD is coming out of His dwelling to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity. The earth will reveal her bloodshed and will no longer conceal her slain.
21 Porque he aquí que Jehová sale de su lugar, para visitar la maldad del morador de la tierra contra él; y la tierra descubrirá sus sangres, y no más encubrirá sus muertos.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
For it is written, "Enter into thy secret chambers for a little time, until my wrath and fury pass away; and I will remember a propitious day, and will raise you up out of your graves." Blessed are we, beloved, if we keep the commandments of God in the harmony of love; that so through love our sins may be …
… joy of this nature at the resurrection of the just, when he says: "The dead shall rise again; those, too, who are in the tombs shall arise, and those who are in the earth shall rejoice. For the dew from Thee is health to them." And this again Ezekiel also says: "Behold, I will open your tombs, and will bring …
For as in a good sense it is said, "The zeal of Thine house hath consumed me," so in a bad sense it is said, "Zeal hath possessed the uninstructed people, and now fire shall consume the enemies." "And now," that is to say, not the fire of the last judgment.

Heed not those who say that this body is not raised; for it is raised: and Esaias is witness, when he says: The dead shall arise, and they that are in the tombs shall awake: and according to Daniel, Many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall arise, some to everlasting life, and some to …
