1 David sang the words of this song to the Lord on the day when the Lord saved him from all his enemies, and from Saul.
1 Y HABLÓ David á Jehová las palabras de este cántico, el día que Jehová le había librado de la mano de todos sus enemigos, y de la mano de Saúl.
1 David spoke to Yahweh the words of this song in the day that Yahweh delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul,
2 He sang: “The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my Savior.
2 Y dijo: Jehová es mi roca, y mi fortaleza, y mi libertador;
2 and he said: “Yahweh is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer, even mine;
3 He is my God, my rock who protects me. He shields me from harm, his power saves me, he keeps me safe. He is my protector; he is my savior; he saves me from violence.
3 Dios de mi roca, en él confiaré: mi escudo, y el cuerno de mi salud, mi fortaleza, y mi refugio; mi salvador, que me librarás de violencia.
3 God is my rock in whom I take refuge; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge. My savior, you save me from violence.
4 I call for help from the Lord, who should be praised, and he saves me from those who hate me.
4 Invocaré á Jehová, digno de ser loado, y seré salvo de mis enemigos.
4 I call on Yahweh, who is worthy to be praised; So shall I be saved from my enemies.
5 The waves of death swept over me; surging waters of destruction flooded over me;
5 Cuando me cercaron ondas de muerte, y arroyos de iniquidad me asombraron,
5 For the waves of death surrounded me. The floods of ungodliness made me afraid.
6 The grave wound its ropes around me; death set snares for me.
6 Me rodearon los dolores del infierno, y me tomaron descuidado lazos de muerte.
6 The cords of Sheol were around me. The snares of death caught me.
7 In my despair I called on the Lord; I called out to my God. He heard my voice from his Temple; my cry for help reached his ears.
7 Tuve angustia, invoqué á Jehová, y clamé á mi Dios: y él oyó mi voz desde su templo; [llegó] mi clamor á sus oídos.
7 In my distress, I called on Yahweh. Yes, I called to my God. He heard my voice out of his temple. My cry came into his ears.
8 The earth shook to and fro; the foundations of the heavens trembled, shaking because of his anger.
8 La tierra se removió, y tembló; los fundamentos de los cielos fueron movidos, y se estremecieron, porque él se airó.
8 Then the earth shook and trembled. The foundations of heaven quaked and were shaken, because he was angry.
9 Smoke came out of his nostrils, and fire from his mouth, burning coals that blazed before him.
9 Subió humo de sus narices, y de su boca fuego consumidor, por el cual se encendieron carbones.
9 Smoke went up out of his nostrils. Consuming fire came out of his mouth. Coals were kindled by it.
10 He pushed aside the heavens and came down, with dark clouds beneath his feet.
10 Y abajó los cielos, y descendió: una oscuridad debajo de sus pies.
10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down. Thick darkness was under his feet.
11 Riding on a heavenly being he flew, swooping on the wings of the wind.
11 Subió sobre el querubín, y voló: aparecióse sobre las alas del viento.
11 He rode on a cherub, and flew. Yes, he was seen on the wings of the wind.
12 He hid himself in darkness, covering himself with black rainclouds.
12 Puso tinieblas alrededor de sí [á modo de] pabellones; aguas negras y espesas nubes.
12 He made darkness a shelter around himself, gathering of waters, and thick clouds of the skies.
13 Burning coals blazed out of his brightness.
13 Del resplandor de su presencia se encendieron ascuas ardientes.
13 At the brightness before him, coals of fire were kindled.
14 The Lord thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded.
14 Jehová tronó desde los cielos, y el Altísimo dió su voz;
14 Yahweh thundered from heaven. The Most High uttered his voice.
15 He fired his arrows, scattering his enemies, he routed them with his lightning bolts.
15 Arrojó saetas, y desbaratólos; relampagueó, y consumiólos.
15 He sent out arrows and scattered them, lightning and confused them.
16 The Lord roared, and by the wind from the breath of his nostrils the valleys of the sea could be seen and the foundations of the earth were uncovered.
16 Entonces aparecieron los manantiales de la mar, y los fundamentos del mundo fueron descubiertos, á la reprensión de Jehová, al resoplido del aliento de su nariz.
16 Then the channels of the sea appeared. The foundations of the world were laid bare by Yahweh’s rebuke, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
17 He reached down his hand from above and grabbed hold of me. He dragged me out of the deep water.
17 Extendió [su mano] de lo alto, y arrebatóme, y sacóme de copiosas aguas.
17 He sent from on high and he took me. He drew me out of many waters.
18 He rescued me from my powerful enemies, from those who hated me and who were much stronger than me.
18 Libróme de fuertes enemigos, de aquellos que me aborrecían, los cuales eran más fuertes que yo.
18 He delivered me from my strong enemy, from those who hated me, for they were too mighty for me.
19 They came at me at my worst possible moment, but the Lord supported me.
19 Asaltáronme en el día de mi calamidad; mas Jehová fué mi sostén.
19 They came on me in the day of my calamity, but Yahweh was my support.
20 He set me free, he rescued me because he's happy with me.
20 Sacóme á anchura; libróme, porque puso su voluntad en mí.
20 He also brought me out into a large place. He delivered me, because he delighted in me.
21 The Lord rewarded me because I do what's right; he repaid me because I am innocent.
21 Remuneróme Jehová conforme á mi justicia; y conforme á la limpieza de mis manos, me dió la paga.
21 Yahweh rewarded me according to my righteousness. He rewarded me according to the cleanness of my hands.
22 For I have followed the Lord's ways; I have not sinned by turning away from my God.
22 Porque yo guardé los caminos de Jehová, y no me aparté impíamente de mi Dios.
22 For I have kept Yahweh’s ways, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
23 I have kept all his laws in mind; I have not ignored his commandments.
23 Porque delante de mí tengo todas sus ordenanzas; y [atento á] sus fueros, no me retiraré de ellos.
23 For all his ordinances were before me. As for his statutes, I didn’t depart from them.
24 I am blameless in his sight; I keep myself from sinning.
24 Y fuí íntegro para con él, y guardéme de mi iniquidad.
24 I was also perfect toward him. I kept myself from my iniquity.
25 The Lord rewarded me for doing what's right. I am innocent in his sight.
25 Remuneróme por tanto Jehová conforme á mi justicia, y conforme á mi limpieza delante de sus ojos.
25 Therefore Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness, According to my cleanness in his eyesight.
26 You show trust to those who are trusting; you show integrity to those with integrity,
26 Con el bueno eres benigno, y con el íntegro te muestras íntegro;
26 With the merciful you will show yourself merciful. With the perfect man you will show yourself perfect.
27 You show yourself pure to those who are pure, but you show yourself astute to those who are crafty.
27 Limpio eres para con el limpio, mas con el perverso eres rígido.
27 With the pure you will show yourself pure. With the crooked you will show yourself shrewd.
28 You save the humble, but your eyes watch the proud to bring them down.
28 Y tú salvas al pueblo humilde; mas tus ojos sobre los altivos, para abatirlos.
28 You will save the afflicted people, but your eyes are on the arrogant, that you may bring them down.
29 You, Lord, are my lamp. The Lord lights up my darkness.
29 Porque tú eres mi lámpara, oh Jehová: Jehová da luz á mis tinieblas.
29 For you are my lamp, Yahweh. Yahweh will light up my darkness.
30 With you, I can charge down a troop of soldiers; with you, my God, I can climb a fortress wall.
30 Porque en ti romperé ejércitos, y con mi Dios saltaré las murallas.
30 For by you, I run against a troop. By my God, I leap over a wall.
31 God's way is absolutely right. What the Lord says is trustworthy. He is a shield to all who come to him for protection.
31 Dios, perfecto su camino: la palabra de Jehová purificada, escudo es de todos los que en él esperan.
31 As for God, his way is perfect. Yahweh’s word is tested. He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.
32 For who is God except the Lord? Who is a Rock, except our God?
32 Porque ¿qué Dios hay sino Jehová? ¿ó quién es fuerte sino nuestro Dios?
32 For who is God, besides Yahweh? Who is a rock, besides our God?
33 God makes me strong and keeps me safe.
33 Dios es el que con virtud me corrobora, y el que despeja mi camino;
33 God is my strong fortress. He makes my way perfect.
34 He makes me surefooted like the deer, able to walk the heights in safety.
34 El que hace mis pies como de ciervas, y el que me asienta en mis alturas;
34 He makes his feet like hinds’ feet, and sets me on my high places.
35 He teaches me how to fight in battle; he gives me the strength to draw a bronze bow.
35 El que enseña mis manos para la pelea, y [da que] con mis brazos quiebre el arco de acero.
35 He teaches my hands to war, so that my arms bend a bow of bronze.
36 You protect me with the shield of your salvation; your help has made me great.
36 Tú me diste asimismo el escudo de tu salud, y tu benignidad me ha acrecentado.
36 You have also given me the shield of your salvation. Your gentleness has made me great.
37 You gave me room to walk, and prevented my feet from slipping.
37 Tú ensanchaste mis pasos debajo de mí, para que no titubeasen mis rodillas.
37 You have enlarged my steps under me. My feet have not slipped.
38 I chased my enemies, and caught up with them. I did not turn around until I had destroyed them.
38 Perseguiré á mis enemigos, y quebrantarélos; y no me volveré hasta que los acabe.
38 I have pursued my enemies and destroyed them. I didn’t turn again until they were consumed.
39 I struck them down—they couldn't get up. They fell at my feet.
39 Los consumiré, y los heriré, y no se levantarán; y caerán debajo de mis pies.
39 I have consumed them, and struck them through, so that they can’t arise. Yes, they have fallen under my feet.
40 You made me strong for the battle; you made those who rose up against me kneel low before me.
40 Ceñísteme de fortaleza para la batalla, y postraste debajo de mí los que contra mí se levantaron.
40 For you have armed me with strength for the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.
41 You made my enemies run away; I destroyed all my enemies.
41 Tú me diste la cerviz de mis enemigos, de mis aborrecedores, y que yo los destruyese.
41 You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me.
42 They cried out for help, but no one came to rescue them. They even called out to the Lord, but he did not answer them.
42 Miraron, y no hubo quien los librase; á Jehová, mas no les respondió.
42 They looked, but there was no one to save; even to Yahweh, but he didn’t answer them.
43 I ground them into dust, like the dust of the earth. I crushed them and threw them out like mud in the street.
43 Yo los desmenuzaré como polvo de la tierra; hollarélos como á lodo de las plazas, y los disiparé.
43 Then I beat them as small as the dust of the earth. I crushed them as the mire of the streets, and spread them abroad.
44 You rescued me from rebellious people; you have kept me as ruler over nations—people I didn't know now serve me.
44 Tú me libraste de contiendas de pueblos: tú me guardaste para que fuese cabeza de gentes: pueblos que no conocía, me sirvieron.
44 You also have delivered me from the strivings of my people. You have kept me to be the head of the nations. A people whom I have not known will serve me.
45 Foreigners cower before me; as soon as they hear of me, they obey.
45 Los extraños titubeaban á mí: en oyendo, me obedecían.
45 The foreigners will submit themselves to me. As soon as they hear of me, they will obey me.
46 They lose heart, and come trembling in surrender from their strongholds.
46 Los extraños desfallecían, y temblaban en sus escondrijos.
46 The foreigners will fade away, and will come trembling out of their close places.
47 The Lord lives! Blessed be my Rock! May the God who saves me be praised!
47 Viva Jehová, y sea bendita mi roca; sea ensalzado el Dios, la roca de mi salvamento:
47 Yahweh lives! Blessed be my rock! Exalted be God, the rock of my salvation,
48 God avenges me, he puts peoples under me,
48 El Dios que me ha vengado, y sujeta los pueblos debajo de mí;
48 even the God who executes vengeance for me, who brings down peoples under me,
49 He frees me from those who hate me. You keep me safe from those who rebel against me, you save me from violent men.
49 Y que me saca de entre mis enemigos: tú me sacaste en alto de entre los que se levantaron contra mí: librásteme del varón de iniquidades.
49 who brings me away from my enemies. Yes, you lift me up above those who rise up against me. You deliver me from the violent man.
50 That's why I will praise you among the nations, Lord; I will sing praises about who you are.
50 Por tanto yo te confesaré entre las gentes, oh Jehová, y cantaré á tu nombre.
50 Therefore I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the nations, and will sing praises to your name.
51 You have saved the king so often, showing your trustworthy love to David, your anointed, and to his descendants forever.”
51 El que engrandece las saludes de su rey, y hace misericordia á su ungido, á David, y á su simiente, para siempre.
51 He gives great deliverance to his king, and shows loving kindness to his anointed, to David and to his offspring, forever more.”
