1 Al director musical. Salmo de David. ¡Oh Dios, alabanza mía, no te quedes callado!
1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. God of my praise, don’t remain silent,
2 Los malvados me calumnian y dicen mentiras.
2 for they have opened the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit against me. They have spoken to me with a lying tongue.
3 Con sus palabras de odio me inquietan, y sin razón alguna me buscan pleito.
3 They have also surrounded me with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause.
4 Yo los amo, pero aun mientras oro por ellos, ellos están procurando destruirme.
4 In return for my love, they are my adversaries; but I am in prayer.
5 Pagan mal por bien, y odio por mi amor.
5 They have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
6 Pon en su contra a un malvado; haz que un acusador los lleve a juicio.
6 Set a wicked man over him. Let an adversary stand at his right hand.
7 Que los declaren culpable al ser juzgado. Considera pecado sus oraciones.
7 When he is judged, let him come out guilty. Let his prayer be turned into sin.
8 Que sus años sean pocos; que otro tome su lugar.
8 Let his days be few. Let another take his office.
9 Que sus hijos queden huérfanos y viuda su esposa,
9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
10 que sus hijos anden vagando como mendigos; que los echen de su hogar en ruinas.
10 Let his children be wandering beggars. Let them be sought from their ruins.
11 Que los acreedores se apoderen de todas sus propiedades y los extraños tomen cuanto ha ganado.
11 Let the creditor seize all that he has. Let strangers plunder the fruit of his labor.
12 Que nadie sea generoso con ellos; que nadie se apiade de sus hijos huérfanos.
12 Let there be no one to extend kindness to him, neither let there be anyone to have pity on his fatherless children.
13 Que mueran sus descendientes. Que en una sola generación desaparezca su apellido.
13 Let his posterity be cut off. In the generation following let their name be blotted out.
14 Castiga los pecados de su padre. No olvides el pecado de su madre.
14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered by Yahweh. Don’t let the sin of his mother be blotted out.
15 Piensa continuamente en los males que han hecho, y arranca su nombre de la memoria de los hombres.
15 Let them be before Yahweh continually, that he may cut off their memory from the earth;
16 Porque no quiso hacer el bien a otros, persiguió hasta la muerte a pobres, a necesitados y a los quebrantados de corazón.
16 because he didn’t remember to show kindness, but persecuted the poor and needy man, the broken in heart, to kill them.
17 Se gozaba en maldecir al prójimo; maldícelo tú ahora. Nunca bendijo a otros; no lo bendigas ahora.
17 Yes, he loved cursing, and it came to him. He didn’t delight in blessing, and it was far from him.
18 La maldición es parte de él como sus vestidos, o como al agua que bebe, o como los manjares que come.
18 He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment. It came into his inward parts like water, like oil into his bones.
19 Vuélvanse ahora esas maldiciones contra él y que sean parte de él como la ropa; que lo aprieten como su cinturón.
19 Let it be to him as the clothing with which he covers himself, for the belt that is always around him.
20 Así sea el castigo del Señor sobre mis enemigos que me calumnian y me amenazan de muerte.
20 This is the reward of my adversaries from Yahweh, of those who speak evil against my soul.
21 Pero tú, Señor soberano, trátame bien por causa de tu nombre; líbrame porque tú eres bueno y fiel.
21 But deal with me, Yahweh the Lord, for your name’s sake, because your loving kindness is good, deliver me;
22 Porque soy pobre y estoy necesitado, y mi corazón está lleno de dolor.
22 for I am poor and needy. My heart is wounded within me.
23 Me estoy desvaneciendo como una sombra cuando anochece; estoy cayendo como un saltamontes al que se le sacude con facilidad,
23 I fade away like an evening shadow. I am shaken off like a locust.
24 y la piel se me pega a los huesos.
24 My knees are weak through fasting. My body is thin and lacks fat.
25 Soy símbolo de fracaso para toda la humanidad; cuantos me miran menean la cabeza.
25 I have also become a reproach to them. When they see me, they shake their head.
26 ¡Ayúdame, Señor, y Dios mío! ¡Sálvame! Por tu gran amor.
26 Help me, Yahweh, my God. Save me according to your loving kindness;
27 Hazlo en público, para que todos vean que tú lo has hecho.
27 that they may know that this is your hand; that you, Yahweh, have done it.
28 Después, que me maldigan si quieren; pero tú me bendecirás, pues entonces todos sus esfuerzos por destruirme fracasarán, pues yo soy tu siervo y seguiré regocijándome.
28 They may curse, but you bless. When they arise, they will be shamed, but your servant shall rejoice.
29 ¡Que todos vean su humillación, cúbrelos con un manto de vergüenza!
29 Let my adversaries be clothed with dishonor. Let them cover themselves with their own shame as with a robe.
30 Pero yo daré repetidas gracias al Señor, y lo alabaré ante todos.
30 I will give great thanks to Yahweh with my mouth. Yes, I will praise him among the multitude.
31 Porque él defiende al necesitado, para salvarlo de quienes lo condenan.
31 For he will stand at the right hand of the needy, to save him from those who judge his soul.

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).
I have not thought that the CVIII^th Psalm required an exposition; since I have already expounded it in the LVII^th Psalm, and in the LX^th, of the last divisions of which this Psalm consisteth.

… Judas to be, after being separated from her Enthymesis, was restored or recalled [to her former position]; but Judas was deprived [of his office], and cast out, while Matthias was ordained in his place, according to what is written, "And his bishopric let another take." They ought therefore to maintain that the twelfth Æon was cast out of the Pleroma, …
63. "I am poor and needy," yet better am I while in secret groanings I displease myself, and seek for Thy mercy, until what is lacking in me be renewed and made complete, even up to that peace of which the eye of the proud is ignorant.

O God, pass not over My praise in silence; for the mouth of the wicked, and the mouth of the deceitful, are opened against Me; they have spoken against Me with a treacherous tongue, they have compassed Me about also with words of hatred.
