RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909

1 Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, and his covenant faithfulness endures forever.

1 ALABAD á Jehová, porque es bueno; porque para siempre [es] su misericordia.

2 Let the redeemed of Yahweh speak out, those he has rescued from the hand of the enemy.

2 Dígan[lo] los redimidos de Jehová, los que ha redimido del poder del enemigo,

3 He has gathered them out of foreign lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.

3 Y los ha congregado de las tierras, del oriente y del occidente, del aquilón y de la mar.

4 They wandered in the wilderness on a desert road and found no city in which to live.

4 Anduvieron perdidos por el desierto, por la soledad sin camino, no hallando ciudad de población.

5 Because they were hungry and thirsty, they fainted from exhaustion.

5 Hambrientos y sedientos, su alma desfallecía en ellos.

6 Then they called out to Yahweh in their trouble, and he rescued them out of their distress.

6 Habiendo empero clamado á Jehová en su angustia, librólos de sus aflicciones:

7 He led them by a direct path so that they would go to a city to live in.

7 Y dirigiólos por camino derecho, para que viniesen á ciudad de población.

8 Oh that people would praise Yahweh for his covenant faithfulness and for the amazing things he has done for humanity!

8 Alaben la misericordia de Jehová, y sus maravillas para con los hijos de los hombres.

9 For he satisfies the longings of those who are thirsty, and the desires of those who are hungry he fills up with good things.

9 Porque sació al alma menesterosa, y llenó de bien al alma hambrienta.

10 Some sat in darkness and in gloom, prisoners in affliction and chains.

10 Los que moraban en tinieblas y sombra de muerte, aprisionados en aflicción y en hierros;

11 This was because they had rebelled against God's word and rejected the instruction of the Most High.

11 Por cuanto fueron rebeldes á las palabras de Jehová, y aborrecieron el consejo del Altísimo,

12 He humbled their hearts through hardship; they stumbled and there was no one to help them up.

12 Por lo que quebrantó él con trabajo sus corazones, cayeron y no hubo quien [les] ayudase;

13 Then they called out to Yahweh in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress.

13 Luego que clamaron á Jehová en su angustia, librólos de sus aflicciones.

14 He brought them out of darkness and gloom and broke their bonds.

14 Sacólos de las tinieblas y de la sombra de muerte, y rompió sus prisiones.

15 Oh that people would praise Yahweh for his covenant faithfulness and for the amazing things he has done for humanity!

15 Alaben la misericordia de Jehová, y sus maravillas para con los hijos de los hombres.

16 For he has broken the gates of bronze and cut through the bars of iron.

16 Porque quebrantó las puertas de bronce, y desmenuzó los cerrojos de hierro.

17 They were foolish in their rebellious ways and afflicted because of their sins.

17 Los insensatos, á causa del camino de su rebelión y á causa de sus maldades, fueron afligidos.

18 They lost their desire to eat any food, and they came close to the gates of death.

18 Su alma abominó toda vianda, y llegaron hasta las puertas de la muerte.

19 Then they called out to Yahweh in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress.

19 Mas clamaron á Jehová en su angustia, y salvólos de sus aflicciones.

20 He sent his word and healed them, and he rescued them from their destruction.

20 Envió su palabra, y curólos, y librólos de su ruina.

21 Oh that people would praise Yahweh for his covenant faithfulness and for the amazing things he has done for humanity!

21 Alaben la misericordia de Jehová, y sus maravillas para con los hijos de los hombres:

22 Let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving and proclaim his deeds in singing.

22 Y sacrifiquen sacrificios de alabanza, y publiquen sus obras con júbilo.

23 Some travel on the sea in ships and do business overseas.

23 Los que descienden á la mar en navíos, y hacen negocio en las muchas aguas,

24 These saw the deeds of Yahweh and his wonders on the seas.

24 Ellos han visto las obras de Jehová, y sus maravillas en el profundo.

25 For he commanded and aroused the windstorm that stirs up the seas.

25 El dijo, é hizo saltar el viento de la tempestad, que levanta sus ondas.

26 They reached up to the sky; they went down to the depths. Their lives melted away in distress.

26 Suben á los cielos, descienden á los abismos: sus almas se derriten con el mal.

27 They swayed and staggered like drunkards and were at their wits' end.

27 Tiemblan, y titubean como borrachos, y toda su ciencia es perdida.

28 Then they called out to Yahweh in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress.

28 Claman empero á Jehová en su angustia, y líbralos de sus aflicciones.

29 He calmed the storm, and the waves were stilled.

29 Hace parar la tempestad en sosiego, y se apaciguan sus ondas.

30 Then they rejoiced because the sea was calm, and he brought them to their desired harbor.

30 Alégranse luego porque se reposaron; y él los guía al puerto que deseaban.

31 Oh that people would praise Yahweh for his covenant faithfulness and for the amazing things he has done for humanity!

31 Alaben la misericordia de Jehová, y sus maravillas para con los hijos de los hombres.

32 Let them exalt him in the assembly of the people and praise him in the council of the elders.

32 Y ensálcenlo en la congregación del pueblo; y en consistorio de ancianos lo alaben.

33 He turns rivers into a wilderness, springs of water into dry land,

33 El vuelve los ríos en desierto, y los manantiales de las aguas en secadales;

34 and a fruitful land into a barren place because of the wickedness of its people.

34 La tierra fructífera en salados, por la maldad de los que la habitan.

35 He turns the wilderness into a pool of water and dry land into springs of water.

35 Vuelve el desierto en estanques de aguas, y la tierra seca en manantiales.

36 He settles the hungry there, and they build a city to live in.

36 Y allí aposenta á los hambrientos, y disponen ciudad para habitación;

37 They build a city to plant fields in, to plant vineyards, and to bring in an abundant harvest.

37 Y siembran campos, y plantan viñas, y rinden crecido fruto.

38 He blesses them so they are very numerous. He does not let their cattle decrease in number.

38 Y los bendice, y se multiplican en gran manera; y no disminuye sus bestias.

39 They were diminished and brought low by painful distress and suffering.

39 Y luego son menoscabados y abatidos á causa de tiranía, de males y congojas.

40 He pours contempt on the leaders and causes them to wander in the wilderness, where there are no roads.

40 El derrama menosprecio sobre los príncipes, y les hace andar errados, vagabundos, sin camino:

41 But he protects the needy from affliction and cares for his families like a flock.

41 Y levanta al pobre de la miseria, y hace [multiplicar] las familias como [rebaños de] ovejas.

42 The upright will see this and rejoice, and all wickedness shuts its mouth.

42 Vean los rectos, y alégrense; y toda maldad cierre su boca.

43 Whoever is wise should take note of these things and meditate on Yahweh's acts of covenant faithfulness.

43 ¿Quién es sabio y guardará estas cosas, y entenderá las misericordias de Jehová?

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).

Commentary Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm CVI)
This Psalm also hath the title Allelujah prefixed to it: and this twice. But some say, that one Allelujah belongeth to the end of the former Psalm, the other to the beginning of this.

… through an instrument or a servant, but as through His essential and hypostatic Word and Wisdom and Power, because but one action is observed in Father and Son, as for example, All things were made by Him, and He sent His Word and healed them, and That they may believe that Thou hast sent Me.
