Notes on this text (1)

1 Salmo de David, cuando estaba en el desierto de Judá. ¡Oh Dios, mi Dios! ¡Cómo te busco! ¡Qué sed tengo de ti en esta tierra reseca y triste en donde no hay agua! ¡Cómo anhelo encontrarte! 2 ¡Te he visto en tu santuario y he contemplado tu fortaleza y gloria, 3 porque tu amor y bondad son para mí mejor que la vida misma! ¡Cuánto te alabo! 4 Te bendeciré mientras viva, alzando a ti mis manos en oración. 5 Tú dejas mi alma más satisfecha que un delicioso banquete; te alabarán mis labios con gran júbilo. 6 Paso la noche despierto en mi lecho pensando en ti, 7 en cuánto me has ayudado. ¡Canto durante la noche con gozo bajo la protectora sombra de tus alas! 8 Te sigo de cerca, protegido por tu potente diestra. 9 Pero quienes planean destruirme descenderán a las profundidades de la tierra. 10 Están condenados a morir a espada; a ser comida de chacales. 11 Pero el rey se regocijará en Dios. Todos los que en él confían se alegrarán, y los mentirosos serán acallados.

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).
