Notes on this text (1)

1 Al director musical. Salmo de David. Dios bendice a los que son buenos con los pobres. El Señor los libra en tiempo de angustia. 2 Los protege y los mantiene vivos; los prospera y los libra de sus enemigos. 3 Los cuida en sus enfermedades, y alivia sus dolores y preocupaciones. 4 Oré diciendo: «Señor, ten piedad y sáname, pues he pecado contra ti». 5 Pero mis enemigos dicen: «Ojalá muera pronto y caiga en el olvido». 6 ¡Qué amistosos se muestran cuando me visitan! Y cuando se van, salen a contar las calumnias que recogieron. Y cuando se van, se ríen y se burlan. 7 Susurran entre ellos imaginando lo peor de mí. 8 «Tenga lo que tenga, es sin remedio»; dicen. «¡De esa cama no se levantará!». 9 Hasta mi mejor amigo se ha vuelto contra mí; el hombre en quien yo confiaba; ¡con el que compartía el pan! 10 ¡Señor, no me abandones! Muéstrate benigno y sáname, Señor, para que pueda darles su merecido. 11 Veo que estás contento de mí porque no has permitido que mis enemigos me derroten. 12 Me has preservado por mi honradez; has permitido que para siempre esté en presencia tuya. 13 ¡Bendigan al Señor, al Dios de Israel, cuya existencia data de un eterno pasado, y se extiende a un eterno porvenir! ¡Así sea! ¡Amén!

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. Quotes verse 41:4 Augustine of Hippo, Confessions (Book IV)

    For good it is to confess unto Thee, and to say, "Be merciful unto me, heal my soul, for I have sinned against Thee;" and not to abuse Thy goodness for a license to sin, but to remember the words of the Lord, "Behold, thou art made whole; sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee." All of …

  2. Quotes verse 41:9 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture XIII)

    He who did eat of His bread, was lifting up his heel against Him; his hands were but lately receiving the blessed gifts, and presently for the wages of betrayal he was plotting His death.

  3. Quotes verse 41:4 Augustine of Hippo, Confessions (Book IV, Chapters VIII–XII)

    … departed thither, whence He never departed, because "the world was made by Him." And in this world He was, and into this world He came to save sinners, unto whom my soul doth confess, that He may heal it, for it hath sinned against Him. O ye sons of men, how long so slow of heart?

  4. Quotes verse 41:4 Augustine of Hippo, Confessions (Book V, Chapters IX–X)

    … I know not what other nature sinned in us." And it gratified my pride to be free from blame and, after I had committed any fault, not to acknowledge that I had done any,--"that Thou mightest heal my soul because it had sinned against Thee;" but I loved to excuse it, and to accuse something else (I wot not what) …
