PDT God's Word for You (Latin American Textual Bible)
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Sálvame, oh ʼElohim, porque las aguas amenazan mi vida.
1 For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Lilies.” By David. Save me, God, for the waters have come up to my neck!
2 Estoy hundido en lodo profundo, Y no hay donde asentar pie. Entré en aguas profundas, Y un diluvio me inunda.
2 I sink in deep mire, where there is no foothold. I have come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.
3 Estoy cansado de llamar. Mi garganta enronqueció. Mis ojos desfallecen mientras espero a mi ʼElohim.
3 I am weary with my crying. My throat is dry. My eyes fail looking for my God.
4 Aumentaron más que los cabellos de mi cabeza los que me odian sin causa. Son fuertes los que quieren destruirme. Se declararon enemigos míos sin causa. Y tengo que pagar lo que no robé.
4 Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head. Those who want to cut me off, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty. I have to restore what I didn’t take away.
5 Oh ʼElohim, Tú conoces mi insensatez. Mis pecados no te son ocultos.
5 God, you know my foolishness. My sins aren’t hidden from you.
6 No sean avergonzados por mi causa los que en Ti esperan, Oh ʼAdonay Yavé de las huestes. No sean avergonzados por mi causa los que te buscan, Oh ʼAdonay Yavé de las huestes. Que los que te buscan no sean deshonrados por mí, Oh ʼElohim de Israel.
6 Don’t let those who wait for you be shamed through me, Lord Yahweh of Armies. Don’t let those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me, God of Israel.
7 Porque por tu causa he sufrido afrenta. Vergüenza cubrió mi semblante.
7 Because for your sake, I have borne reproach. Shame has covered my face.
8 Me volví extraño para mis hermanos, Y extranjero para los hijos de mi madre.
8 I have become a stranger to my brothers, an alien to my mother’s children.
9 Porque el celo de tu Casa me consume, Y las ofensas de los que te reprochan Cayeron sobre mí.
9 For the zeal of your house consumes me. The reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me.
10 Me afligí a mí mismo con ayuno. Y esto fue mi afrenta.
10 When I wept and I fasted, that was to my reproach.
11 Usé tela áspera como ropa, Y fui para ellos un refrán.
11 When I made sackcloth my clothing, I became a byword to them.
12 Los que se sientan en la puerta murmuran contra mí, Y soy el canto de los borrachos.
12 Those who sit in the gate talk about me. I am the song of the drunkards.
13 Pero yo elevo mi oración a Ti, oh Yavé, en el tiempo aceptable. Oh ʼElohim, por la grandeza de tu misericordia, Respóndeme con la verdad de tu salvación.
13 But as for me, my prayer is to you, Yahweh, in an acceptable time. God, in the abundance of your loving kindness, answer me in the truth of your salvation.
14 Sácame del lodo, Y no dejes que me hunda. Que yo sea librado de los que me aborrecen Y de las aguas profundas.
14 Deliver me out of the mire, and don’t let me sink. Let me be delivered from those who hate me, and out of the deep waters.
15 Que no me ahogue el diluvio de agua, Ni me sorba el abismo, Ni la fosa cierre sobre mí su boca.
15 Don’t let the flood waters overwhelm me, neither let the deep swallow me up. Don’t let the pit shut its mouth on me.
16 Respóndeme, oh Yavé, Porque tu misericordia es buena. Vuélvete a mí conforme a la grandeza de tu misericordia.
16 Answer me, Yahweh, for your loving kindness is good. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, turn to me.
17 No escondas tu rostro de tu esclavo, Porque estoy en angustia. Respóndeme prontamente.
17 Don’t hide your face from your servant, for I am in distress. Answer me speedily!
18 Acércate a mi vida y redímela. Rescátame a causa de mis enemigos.
18 Draw near to my soul and redeem it. Ransom me because of my enemies.
19 Tú conoces mi afrenta, mi vergüenza y mi oprobio. Delante de Ti están todos mis adversarios.
19 You know my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor. My adversaries are all before you.
20 La afrenta quebrantó mi corazón, Y estoy enfermo. Busqué compasión, y no hubo, Y consoladores, pero ninguno hallé.
20 Reproach has broken my heart, and I am full of heaviness. I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; for comforters, but I found none.
21 Me dieron además hiel como alimento, Y en mi sed me dieron a beber vinagre.
21 They also gave me poison for my food. In my thirst, they gave me vinegar to drink.
22 Vuélvase su mesa delante de ellos una trampa. Y cuando ellos estén seguros en paz, Se convierta en trampa para ellos.
22 Let their table before them become a snare. May it become a retribution and a trap.
23 Sean oscurecidos sus ojos para que no vean, Y que sus cinturas tiemblen continuamente.
23 Let their eyes be darkened, so that they can’t see. Let their backs be continually bent.
24 Derrama tu indignación sobre ellos, Y alcánzalos con tu ardiente furor.
24 Pour out your indignation on them. Let the fierceness of your anger overtake them.
25 Sea su campamento desolado, Que nadie viva en sus tiendas.
25 Let their habitation be desolate. Let no one dwell in their tents.
26 Porque persiguen al que Tú mismo mataste, Y comentan el dolor de los que Tú heriste.
26 For they persecute him whom you have wounded. They tell of the sorrow of those whom you have hurt.
27 Añade iniquidad a su iniquidad, Y no entren ellos en tu justicia.
27 Charge them with crime upon crime. Don’t let them come into your righteousness.
28 Sean borrados del rollo de la vida, Y no sean inscritos con los justos.
28 Let them be blotted out of the book of life, and not be written with the righteous.
29 Pero yo estoy afligido y adolorido. Que tu salvación me ponga en alto, oh ʼElohim.
29 But I am in pain and distress. Let your salvation, God, protect me.
30 Yo alabaré el Nombre de ʼElohim con canto, Y lo exaltaré con acción de gracias.
30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.
31 Y agradará a Yavé más que el sacrificio de un buey, O un novillo con cuernos y pezuñas.
31 It will please Yahweh better than an ox, or a bull that has horns and hoofs.
32 Lo ven los humildes y se alegran. Ustedes, los que buscan a ʼElohim, Que reviva su corazón.
32 The humble have seen it, and are glad. You who seek after God, let your heart live.
33 Porque Yavé oye a los menesterosos, Y no desprecia a sus prisioneros.
33 For Yahweh hears the needy, and doesn’t despise his captive people.
34 ¡Alábenlo los cielos y la tierra, Los mares, y todo lo que se mueve en ellos!
34 Let heaven and earth praise him; the seas, and everything that moves therein!
35 Porque ʼElohim salvará a Sion, Y edificará las ciudades de Judá Para que vivan allí y las posean.
35 For God will save Zion, and build the cities of Judah. They shall settle there, and own it.
36 Los descendientes de tus esclavos la heredan, Y los que aman tu Nombre habitarán en ella.
36 The children also of his servants shall inherit it. Those who love his name shall dwell therein.

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 LXVIII)

    Of this Psalm, the title seemeth not to need operose discussion: for simple and easy it appeareth. For thus it standeth: "For the end, for David himself a Psalm of a Song." But in many Psalms already we have reminded you what is "at the end: for the end of the Law is Christ for righteousness to every man believing:" …

    For, says the elect David, "I will confess unto the Lord; and that will please Him more than a young bullock that hath horns and hoofs. Let the poor see it, and be glad." And again he saith, "Offer unto God the sacrifice of praise, and pay thy vows unto the Most High.
