GNV Geneva Bible (1599)
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 O Lord God the auenger, O God the auenger, shewe thy selfe clearely.
1 JEHOVÁ, Dios de las venganzas, Dios de las venganzas, muéstrate.
2 Exalt thy selfe, O Iudge of the worlde, and render a reward to the proude.
2 Ensálzate, oh Juez de la tierra: da el pago á los soberbios.
3 Lord how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?
3 ¿Hasta cuándo los impíos, hasta cuándo, oh Jehová, se gozarán los impíos?
4 They prate and speake fiercely: all the workers of iniquitie vaunt themselues.
4 ¿Hasta cuándo pronunciarán, hablarán cosas duras, y se vanagloriarán todos los que obran iniquidad?
5 They smite downe thy people, O Lord, and trouble thine heritage.
5 A tu pueblo, oh Jehová, quebrantan, y á tu heredad afligen.
6 They slay the widowe and the stranger, and murder the fatherlesse.
6 A la viuda y al extanjero matan, y á los huérfanos quitan la vida.
7 Yet they say, The Lord shall not see: neither will the God of Iaakob regard it.
7 Y dijeron: No verá JAH, ni entenderá el Dios de Jacob.
8 Vnderstande ye vnwise among the people: and ye fooles, when will ye be wise?
8 Entended, necios del pueblo; y vosotros fatuos, ¿cuándo seréis sabios?
9 Hee that planted the eare, shall hee not heare? or he that formed the eye, shall he not see?
9 El que plantó el oído, ¿no oirá? el que formó el ojo, ¿no verá?
10 Or he that chastiseth the nations, shall he not correct? hee that teacheth man knowledge, shall he not knowe?
10 El que castiga las gentes, ¿no reprenderá? ¿no sabrá el que enseña al hombre la ciencia?
11 The Lord knoweth the thoughtes of man, that they are vanitie.
11 Jehová conoce los pensamientos de los hombres, que son vanidad.
12 Blessed is the man, whom thou chastisest, O Lord, and teachest him in thy Lawe,
12 Bienaventurado el hombre á quien tú, JAH, castigares, y en tu ley lo instruyeres;
13 That thou mayest giue him rest from the dayes of euill, whiles the pitte is digged for the wicked.
13 Para tranquilizarle en los días de aflicción, en tanto que para el impío se cava el hoyo.
14 Surely the Lord will not faile his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
14 Porque no dejará Jehová su pueblo, ni desamparará su heredad;
15 For iudgement shall returne to iustice, and all the vpright in heart shall follow after it.
15 Sino que el juicio será vuelto á justicia, y en pos de ella irán todos los rectos de corazón.
16 Who will rise vp with me against the wicked? or who will take my part against the workers of iniquitie?
16 ¿Quién se levantará por mí contra los malignos? ¿quién estará por mí contra los que obran iniquidad?
17 If the Lord had not holpen me, my soule had almost dwelt in silence.
17 Si no me ayudara Jehová, presto morara mi alma en el silencio.
18 When I said, My foote slideth, thy mercy, O Lord, stayed me.
18 Cuando yo decía: Mi pie resbala: tu misericordia, oh Jehová, me sustentaba.
19 In the multitude of my thoughts in mine heart, thy comfortes haue reioyced my soule.
19 En la multitud de mis pensamientos dentro de mí, tus consolaciones alegraban mi alma.
20 Hath the throne of iniquitie fellowship with thee, which forgeth wrong for a Lawe?
20 ¿Juntaráse contigo el trono de iniquidades, que forma agravio en el mandamiento?
21 They gather them together against the soule of the righteous, and condemne the innocent blood.
21 Pónense en corros contra la vida del justo, y condenan la sangre inocente.
22 But the Lord is my refuge, and my God is the rocke of mine hope.
22 Mas Jehová me ha sido por refugio; y mi Dios por roca de mi confianza.
23 And hee will recompence them their wickednes, and destroy them in their owne malice: yea, the Lord our God shall destroy them.
23 Y él hará tornar sobre ellos su iniquidad, y los destruirá por su propia maldad; los talará Jehová nuestro Dios.

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).

  1. Commentary Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm XCIII)

    It is entitled, "The Song of praise of David himself, on the day before the Sabbath, when the earth was founded." Remembering then what God did through all those days, when He made and ordained all things, from the first up to the sixth day (for the seventh He sanctified, because He rested on that day after all the works, …

  3. Quotes verse 94:11 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture V)

    … hard to find: not that thou shouldest shew thy conscience to me, for thou art not to be judged of man's judgment; but that thou shew the sincerity of thy faith to God, who trieth the reins and hearts, and knoweth the thoughts of men.

    Who hath directed the Spirit of the Lord, or being his counsellor hath taught him?"

    … faith in this fleeting course of time, and sojourns as a stranger in the midst of the ungodly, or as it shall dwell in the fixed stability of its eternal seat, which it now with patience waits for, expecting until "righteousness shall return unto judgment," and it obtain, by virtue of its excellence, final victory and perfect peace.
