WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Canten al Señor con alegría, ustedes los justos; es propio de los íntegros alabar al Señor.
1 Rejoice in Yahweh, you righteous! Praise is fitting for the upright.
2 Alaben al Señor al son de la lira, entonen alabanzas con el arpa.
2 Give thanks to Yahweh with the lyre. Sing praises to him with the harp of ten strings.
3 Compónganle nuevos cánticos de alabanza, hábilmente acompañados en el arpa; canten con júbilo.

5 He loves righteousness and justice. The earth is full of the loving kindness of Yahweh.
6 Bastó que hablara, y se formaron los cielos; que soplara para que se formaran todas las estrellas.
6 By Yahweh’s word, the heavens were made: all their army by the breath of his mouth.
7 Él puso límites a los mares y encerró los océanos en su gran estanque.
7 He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap. He lays up the deeps in storehouses.
8 Que todos en el mundo teman al Señor, y ante él sientan sobrecogido respeto.
8 Let all the earth fear Yahweh. Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9 Porque bastó que hablara, y surgió el mundo. ¡A su mandato, apareció!
9 For he spoke, and it was done. He commanded, and it stood firm.
10 Desbarata los planes de todas las naciones, y frustra todos sus proyectos.
10 Yahweh brings the counsel of the nations to nothing. He makes the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.
11 Pero los planes de él permanecen para siempre. Sus intenciones son inamovibles.
11 The counsel of Yahweh stands fast forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12 Bendita la nación cuyo Dios es el Señor, que ha sido elegida por él como pueblo suyo.

14 From the place of his habitation he looks out on all the inhabitants of the earth,
15 Él hizo el corazón de ellos, entiende todo lo que hacen.
15 he who fashions all of their hearts; and he considers all of their works.
16 Ni el ejército mejor equipado puede salvar a un rey, porque no basta la mucha fuerza para salvar al guerrero.
16 There is no king saved by the multitude of an army. A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.
17 Poca cosa es un caballo de guerra para obtener victoria; es vigoroso, pero no puede salvar.
17 A horse is a vain thing for safety, neither does he deliver any by his great power.
18 Pero los ojos del Señor observan a los que le temen y confían en su invariable amor.
18 Behold, Yahweh’s eye is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his loving kindness,
19 Él los guardará de la muerte y aun en tiempos de hambre los mantendrá con vida.
19 to deliver their soul from death, to keep them alive in famine.
20 Sólo en el Señor confiamos para que nos salve. Sólo él puede ayudarnos; nos protege como escudo.
20 Our soul has waited for Yahweh. He is our help and our shield.

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 XXXII)

    To David himself; for understanding; by which it is understood that not by the merits of works, but by the grace of God, man is delivered, confessing his sins. 2. "Blessed are they whose unrighteousness is forgiven, and whose sins are covered" (ver. 1): and whose sins are buried in oblivion.

    Thence we fell again to sighs and groans, and our steps to follow the broad and beaten ways of the world; for many thoughts were in our heart, but Thy counsel standeth for ever. Out of which counsel Thou didst mock ours, and preparedst Thine own, purposing to give us meat in due season, and to open Thy hand, and …

    One, because the creative works of Christ are no other than the Father's; for the creation of all things is one, the Father having made them through the Son: For He spake, and they were made; He commanded, and they were created, saith the Psalmist.
