Notes on this text (1)
- Greek and Latin Bibles number most Psalms one lower than Hebrew and English Bibles.
1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm. A Song of David. Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Zion: and unto thee shall the vow be performed.
1 Al Músico principal: Salmo: Cántico de David. A TI es plácida la alabanza en Sión, oh Dios: y á ti se pagarán los votos.
2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.
2 Tú oyes la oración: á ti vendrá toda carne.
3 Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away.
3 Palabras de iniquidades me sobrepujaron: [mas] nuestras rebeliones tú las perdonarás.
4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach [unto thee], that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, the holy place of thy temple.
4 Dichoso el que tú escogieres, é hicieres llegar [á ti], para que habite en tus atrios: seremos saciados del bien de tu casa, de tu santo templo.
5 By terrible things thou wilt answer us in righteousness, O God of our salvation; thou that art the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are afar off upon the sea:
5 Con tremendas cosas, en justicia, nos responderás tú, oh Dios de nuestra salud, esperanza de todos los términos de la tierra, y de los más remotos [confines] de la mar.
6 Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded about with might:
6 [Tú], el que afirma los montes con su potencia, ceñido de valentía:
7 Which stilleth the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the tumult of the peoples.
7 El que amansa el estruendo de los mares, el estruendo de sus ondas, y el alboroto de las gentes.
8 They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens: thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.
8 Por tanto los habitadores de los fines [de la tierra] temen de tus maravillas. Tú haces alegrar las salidas de la mañana y de la tarde.
9 Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it, thou greatly enrichest it; the river of God is full of water: thou providest them corn, when thou hast so prepared the earth.
9 Visitas la tierra, y la riegas: en gran manera la enriqueces con el río de Dios, lleno de aguas: preparas el grano de ellos, cuando así la dispones.
10 Thou waterest her furrows abundantly; thou settlest the ridges thereof: thou makest it soft with showers; thou blessest the springing thereof.
10 Haces se empapen sus surcos, haces descender sus canales: ablándasla con lluvias, bendices sus renuevos.
11 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness.
11 Tú coronas el año de tus bienes; y tus nubes destilan grosura.
12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the hills are girded with joy.
12 Destilan sobre las estancias del desierto; y los collados se ciñen de alegría.
13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.
13 Vístense los llanos de manadas, y los valles se cubren de grano: dan voces de júbilo, y aun cantan.

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).
Though chiefly the Lord's Passion is noticed in this Psalm, neither could the Martyrs have been strong, unless they had beheld Him, that first suffered; nor such things would they have endured in suffering, as He did, unless they had hoped for such things in the Resurrection as He had showed of Himself: but your Holiness knoweth that our Head …

… times; because "old things have passed away," and "behold all things are become new;" and "because our salvation is nearer than when we believed;" and because "the night is far spent, the day is at hand;" and because Thou wilt crown Thy year with blessing, sending the labourers of Thy goodness into Thy harvest, in the sowing of which others …
