Notes on this text (1)

1 Yavé es mi Luz y mi Salvación, ¿De quién temeré? Yavé es la Fortaleza de mi vida, ¿De quién me aterrorizaré? 2 Cuando se juntaron contra mí los perversos para devorar mi carne, Mis adversarios y mis enemigos tropezaron y cayeron. 3 Aunque un ejército acampe contra mí, No temerá mi corazón. Aunque contra mí se levante guerra, Yo estaré confiado. 4 Una cosa le pedí a Yavé. Ésta buscaré: Que esté yo en la Casa de Yavé todos los días de mi vida, Para contemplar la hermosura de Yavé Y para meditar en su Templo. 5 Porque Él me esconderá en su Tabernáculo en el día del mal. Me ocultará en lo reservado de su Tabernáculo. Me pondrá en alto sobre una roca. 6 Mi cabeza será levantada sobre mis enemigos que estén alrededor, Y en su Tabernáculo ofreceré sacrificios con clamor de júbilo. Cantaré, sí, entonaré salmos a Yavé. 7 ¡Escucha, oh Yavé, cuando clamo con mi voz! ¡Ten compasión de mí y respóndeme! 8 Mi corazón me dice de Ti: ¡Busca su rostro! Tu rostro buscaré, oh Yavé. 9 No escondas tu rostro de mí, Ni rechaces con ira a tu esclavo. Has sido mi Ayuda. No me abandones Ni me desampares, Oh ʼElohim de mi salvación. 10 Aunque mi padre y mi madre me abandonen, Yavé me recogerá. 11 Enséñame, oh Yavé, tu camino, Y guíame por senda llana, a causa de mis enemigos. 12 No me entregues a la voluntad de mis adversarios, Porque se levantaron contra mí testigos falsos que respiran violencia. 13 Hubiera yo desmayado Si no creyera que veré la bondad de Yavé en la tierra de los vivientes. 14 Espera a Yavé. ¡Sé fortalecido y aliéntese tu corazón! ¡Sí, espera a Yavé!

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).

    And even now Thou drawest out of this vast deep the soul that seeketh Thee and thirsteth after Thy delights, whose "heart said unto Thee," I have sought Thy face, "Thy face, Lord, will I seek." For I was far from Thy face, through my darkened affections.
