1 Εἰς Σαλωμών. Ὁ Θεὸς τὸ κρίμα σου τῷ βασιλεῖ δὸς, καὶ τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου τῷ υἱῷ τοῦ βασιλέως·
72:1 Para Salomón. OH Dios, da tus juicios al rey, y tu justicia al hijo del rey.
2 κρίνειν τὸν λαόν σου ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ, καὶ τοὺς πτωχούς σου ἐν κρίσει.
72:2 El juzgará tu pueblo con justicia, y tus afligidos con juicio.
3 Ἀναλαβέτω τὰ ὄρη εἰρήνην τῷ λαῷ σου, καὶ οἱ βουνοί·
72:3 Los montes llevarán paz al pueblo, y los collados justicia.
4 ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ κρινεῖ τοὺς πτωχοὺς τοῦ λαοῦ, καὶ σώσει τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν πενήτων· καὶ ταπεινώσει συκοφάντην,
72:4 Juzgará los afligidos del pueblo, salvará los hijos del menesteroso, y quebrantará al violento.
5 καὶ συμπαραμενεῖ τῷ ἡλίῳ, καὶ πρὸ τῆς σελήνης γενεὰς γενεῶν.
72:5 Temerte han mientras duren el sol y la luna, por generación de generaciones.
6 Καταβήσεται ὡς ὑετὸς ἐπὶ πόκον, καὶ ὡσεὶ σταγόνες στάζουσαι ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν.
72:6 Descenderá como la lluvia sobre la hierba cortada; como el rocío que destila [sobre] la tierra.
7 Ἀνατελεῖ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ δικαιοσύνη, καὶ πλῆθος εἰρήνης ἕως οὗ ἀνταναιρεθῇ ἡ σελήνη.
72:7 Florecerá en sus días justicia, y muchedumbre de paz, hasta que no haya luna.
8 Καὶ κατακυριεύσει ἀπὸ θαλάσσης ἕως θαλάσσης, καὶ ἀπὸ ποταμοῦ ἕως περάτων τῆς οἰκουμένης.
72:8 Y dominará de mar á mar, y desde el río hasta los cabos de la tierra.
9 Ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ προπεσοῦνται Αἰθίοπες, καὶ οἱ ἐχθροὶ αὐτοῦ χοῦν λείξουσι.
72:9 Delante de él se postrarán los Etiopes; y sus enemigos lamerán la tierra.
10 Βασιλεῖς Θαρσὶς καὶ αἱ νῆσοι δῶρα προσοίσουσι, βασιλεῖς Ἀράβων καὶ Σαβὰ δῶρα προσάξουσι.
72:10 Los reyes de Tharsis y de las islas traerán presentes: los reyes de Sheba y de Seba ofrecerán dones.
11 Καὶ προσκυνήσουσιν αὐτῷ πάντες οἱ βασιλεῖς, πάντα τὰ ἔθνη δουλεύσουσιν αὐτῷ.
72:11 Y arrodillarse han á él todos los reyes; le servirán todas las gentes.
12 Ὅτι ἐῤῥύσατο πτωχὸν ἐκ δυνάστου, καὶ πένητα ᾧ οὐχ ὑπῆρχε βοηθός.
72:12 Porque él librará al menesteroso que clamare, y al afligido que no tuviere quien le socorra.
13 Φείσεται πτωχοῦ καὶ πένητος, καὶ ψυχὰς πένητων σώσει.
72:13 Tendrá misericordia del pobre y del menesteroso, y salvará las almas de los pobres.
14 Ἐκ τόκου καὶ ἐξ ἀδικίας λυτρώσεται τὰς ψυχὰς αὐτῶν, καὶ ἔντιμον τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῶν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ.
72:14 De engaño y de violencia redimirá sus almas; y la sangre de ellos será preciosa en sus ojos.
15 Καὶ ζήσεται, καὶ δοθήσεται αὐτῷ ἐκ τοῦ χρυσίου τῆς Ἀραβίας, καὶ προσεύξονται περὶ αὐτοῦ διαπαντός· ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν εὐλογήσουσιν αὐτόν.
72:15 Y vivirá, y darásele del oro de Seba; y oraráse por él continuamente; todo el día se le bendecirá.
16 Ἔσται στήριγμα ἐν τῇ γῇ ἐπʼ ἄκρων τῶν ὀρέων· ὑπεραρθήσεται ὑπὲρ τὸν Λίβανον ὁ καρπὸς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξανθήσουσιν ἐκ πόλεως ὡσεὶ χόρτος τῆς γῆς.
72:16 Será [echado] un puño de grano en tierra, en las cumbres de los montes; su fruto hará ruido como el Líbano, y los de la ciudad florecerán como la hierba de la tierra.
17 Ἔστω τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ εὐλογημένον εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας, πρὸ τοῦ ἡλίου διαμενεῖ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, καὶ εὐλογηθήσονται ἐν αὐτῷ πᾶσαι αἱ φυλαὶ τῆς γῆς· πάντα τὰ ἔθνη μακαριοῦσιν αὐτόν.
72:17 Será su nombre para siempre, perpetuaráse su nombre mientras el sol dure: y benditas serán en él todas las gentes: llamarlo han bienaventurado.
18 Εὐλογητὸς Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ, ὁ ποιῶν θαυμάσια μόνος,
72:18 Bendito Jehová Dios, el Dios de Israel, que solo hace maravillas.
19 καὶ εὐλογητὸν τὸ ὄνομα τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα καὶ εἰς αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος· καὶ πληρωθήσεται τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ πᾶσα ἡ γῆ. γένοιτο, γένοιτο.
72:19 Y bendito su nombre glorioso para siempre: y toda la tierra sea llena de su gloria. Amén y Amén.
20 Ἐξέλιπον οἱ ὕμνοι Δαυὶδ τοῦ υἱοῦ Ἰεσσαί.

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). Verse numbers below follow the Hebrew/English numbering: 72.

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).

    And again when it is preaching the Gospel beforehand, and saying, "In his days shall righteousness flourish, and abundance of peace, till the moon be taken away," it doth not set a limit to this fair part of creation.

  4. Quotes verse 72:5 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture VII)

    And how is it also that they are not abashed at that which is written, From the womb before the morning-star have I begotten thee: also this, He shall endure with the sun, and before the moon, from generation to generation.

  5. Quotes verse 72:8 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XVIII, Chapters 53–54)

    For on this account that prophecy went before concerning Him: "He shall reign from sea even to sea, and from the river even to the ends of the earth."
