1 Al director musical. Salmo de David. En tu fuerza, Señor, se regocija el rey, ¡qué gozo siente en tus victorias!

4 Vida te demandó, [y] dístele largura de días por siglos y siglos.
4 He asked life of you and you gave it to him, even length of days forever and ever.

7 For the king trusts in Yahweh. Through the loving kindness of the Most High, he shall not be moved.
8 Tu mano, Señor, alcanzará a tus enemigos, tu diestra a cuantos te odian.
8 Alcanzará tu mano á todos tus enemigos; tu diestra alcanzará á los que te aborrecen.
8 Your hand will find out all of your enemies. Your right hand will find out those who hate you.
9 Cuando todos te veamos, ellos serán consumidos como por el fuego de un horno, en tu presencia. En su ira los devorará el Señor; fuego los consumirá.
9 Ponerlos has como horno de fuego en el tiempo de tu ira: Jehová los deshará en su furor, y fuego los consumirá.
9 You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. Yahweh will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire shall devour them.

11 Porque esos hombres traman en contra tuya, Señor, pero jamás triunfarán.
11 Porque trazaron el mal contra ti: fraguaron maquinaciones, [mas] no prevalecerán.
11 For they intended evil against you. They plotted evil against you which cannot succeed.

12 Pues tú los pondrás en fuga, [cuando] aparejares en tus cuerdas [las saetas] contra sus rostros.
12 For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn bows at their face.
13 Señor, acepta nuestra alabanza por todo tu glorioso poder. Escribiremos cánticos para celebrar tus poderosos hechos.
13 Ensálzate, oh Jehová, con tu fortaleza: cantaremos y alabaremos tu poderío.
13 Be exalted, Yahweh, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power.

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 XX)

    This is a well-known title; and it is not Christ who speaks; but the prophet speaks to Christ, under the form of wishing, foretelling things to come. 2. "The Lord hear Thee in the day of trouble" (ver. 1).

  2. Quotes verse 21:4 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book II, Chapters XXXIV–XXXV)

    … they were made; He commanded, and they were created: He hath established them for ever, yea, forever and ever." And again, He thus speaks respecting the salvation of man: "He asked life of Thee, and Thou gavest him length of days for ever and ever;" indicating that it is the Father of all who imparts continuance for ever and ever …
