Notes on this text (2)

1 ALABAD á Jehová, porque es bueno; porque para siempre [es] su misericordia. 2 Diga ahora Israel: Que para siempre [es] su misericordia. 3 Diga ahora la casa de Aarón: Que para siempre [es] su misericordia. 4 Digan ahora los que temen á Jehová: Que para siempre [es] su misericordia. 5 Desde la angustia invoqué á JAH; y respondióme JAH, [poniéndome] en anchura. 6 Jehová está por mí: no temeré lo que me pueda hacer el hombre. 7 Jehová está por mí entre los que me ayudan: por tanto yo veré [mi deseo] en los que me aborrecen. 8 Mejor es esperar en Jehová que esperar en hombre. 9 Mejor es esperar en Jehová que esperar en príncipes. 10 Todas las gentes me cercaron: en nombre de Jehová, que yo los romperé. 11 Cercáronme y asediáronme: en nombre de Jehová, que yo los romperé. 12 Cercáronme como abejas; fueron apagados como fuegos de espinos: en nombre de Jehová, que yo los romperé. 13 Empujásteme con violencia para que cayese: empero ayudóme Jehová. 14 Mi fortaleza y mi canción es JAH; y él me ha sido por salud. 15 Voz de júbilo y de salvación hay en las tiendas de los justos: la diestra de Jehová hace proezas. 16 La diestra de Jehová sublime: la diestra de Jehová hace valentías. 17 No moriré, sino que viviré, y contaré las obras de JAH. 18 Castigóme gravemente JAH: mas no me entregó á la muerte. 19 Abridme las puertas de la justicia: entraré por ellas, alabaré á JAH. 20 Esta puerta de Jehová, por ella entrarán los justos. 21 Te alabaré, porque me has oído, y me fuiste por salud. 22 La piedra que desecharon los edificadores, ha venido á ser cabeza del ángulo. 23 De parte de Jehová es esto: es maravilla en nuestros ojos. 24 Este es el día que hizo Jehová: nos gozaremos y alegraremos en él. 25 Oh Jehová, salva ahora, te ruego: oh Jehová, ruégote hagas prosperar ahora. 26 Bendito el que viene en nombre de Jehová: desde la casa de Jehová os bendecimos. 27 Dios es Jehová que nos ha resplandecido: atad víctimas con cuerdas á los cuernos del altar. 28 Mi Dios eres tú, y á ti alabaré: Dios mío, á ti ensalzaré. 29 Alabad á Jehová porque es bueno; porque para siempre [es] su misericordia.

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 CXVII)

    (ver. 1). These are the courts of the Lord's house, this all His people, this the true Jerusalem. Let those rather listen who have refused to be the children of this city, since they have cut themselves off from the communion of all nations.

    … understand that all the prophets announced His two advents: the one, indeed, in which He became a man subject to stripes, and knowing what it is to bear infirmity, and sat upon the foal of an ass, and was a stone rejected by the builders, and was led as a sheep to the slaughter, and by the stretching forth of …

    … delude her in those visions and the answers she had from Thee,--some of which I have spoken of, and others not, --which she kept in her faithful breast, and, always petitioning, pressed upon Thee as Thine autograph.

    For thus saith the holy Word: "The Lord hath severely chastened me, yet hath not given me over to death." "For whom the Lord loveth He chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom He receiveth." "The righteous," saith it, "shall chasten me in mercy, and reprove me; but let not the oil of sinners make fat my head." And again he …
