ULB Unlocked Literal Bible
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 A maschil of Asaph. God, why have you rejected us forever? Why does your anger burn against the sheep of your pasture?
1 Masquil de Asaph. ¿POR qué, oh Dios, [nos] has desechado para siempre? ¿por qué ha humeado tu furor contra las ovejas de tu dehesa?
2 Call to mind your people, whom you purchased in ancient times, the tribe whom you have redeemed to be your own heritage, and Mount Zion, where you live.
2 Acuérdate de tu congregación, que adquiriste de antiguo, [cuando] redimiste la vara de tu heredad; este monte de Sión, donde has habitado.
3 Come look at the complete ruins, all the damage that the enemy has done in the holy place.
3 Levanta tus pies á los asolamientos eternos: á todo enemigo que ha hecho mal en el santuario.
4 Your adversaries roared in the middle of your appointed place; they set up their battle flags.
4 Tus enemigos han bramado en medio de tus sinagogas: han puesto sus divisas por señas.
5 They hacked away with axes as in a thick forest.
5 [Cualquiera] se hacía famoso según que había levantado el hacha sobre los gruesos maderos.
6 They smashed and broke down all the engravings; they broke them with axes and hammers.
6 Y ahora con hachas y martillos han quebrado todas sus entalladuras.
7 They set your sanctuary on fire; they desecrated where you live, knocking it to the ground.
7 Han puesto á fuego tus santuarios, han profanado el tabernáculo de tu nombre [echándolo] á tierra.
8 They said in their hearts, “We will destroy them all.” They burned up all of your meeting places in the land.
8 Dijeron en su corazón: Destruyámoslos de una vez; han quemado todas las sinagogas de Dios en la tierra.
9 We do not see any more signs; there is no prophet any more, and no one among us knows how long this will last.
9 No vemos ya nuestras señales: no hay más profeta; ni con nosotros hay quien sepa hasta cuándo.
10 How long, God, will the enemy throw insults at you? Will the enemy blaspheme your name forever?
10 ¿Hasta cuándo, oh Dios, el angustiador [nos] afrentará? ¿ha de blasfemar el enemigo perpetuamente tu nombre?
11 Why do you hold back your hand, your right hand? Take your right hand from your garment and destroy them.
11 ¿Por qué retraes tu mano, y tu diestra? ¿[por qué] la escondes dentro de tu seno?
12 Yet God has been my king from ancient times, bringing salvation on the earth.
12 Empero Dios es mi rey ya de antiguo; el que obra saludes en medio de la tierra.
13 You divided the sea by your strength; you smashed the heads of the sea monsters in the waters.
13 Tú hendiste la mar con tu fortaleza: quebrantaste cabezas de ballenas en las aguas.
14 You crushed the heads of leviathan; you fed him to those living in the wilderness.
14 Tú magullaste las cabezas del leviathán; dístelo por comida al pueblo de los desiertos.
15 You broke open springs and streams; you dried up flowing rivers.
15 Tú abriste fuente y río; tú secaste ríos impetuosos.
16 The day is yours, and the night is yours also; you set the sun and moon in place.
16 Tuyo es el día, tuya también es la noche: tú aparejaste la luna y el sol.
17 You have set all the borders of the earth; you have made summer and winter.
17 Tú estableciste todos los términos de la tierra: el verano y el invierno tú los formaste.
18 Call to mind how the enemy hurled insults at you, Yahweh, and that a foolish people has blasphemed your name.
18 Acuérdate de esto: que el enemigo ha dicho afrentas á Jehová, y que el pueblo insensato ha blasfemado tu nombre.
19 Do not give the life of your dove to a wild animal. Do not forget forever the life of your oppressed people.
19 No entregues á las bestias el alma de tu tórtola: y no olvides para siempre la congregación de tus afligidos.
20 Remember your covenant, for the dark regions of the land are full of places of violence.
20 Mira al pacto: porque las tenebrosidades de la tierra llenas están de habitaciones de violencia.
21 Do not let the oppressed be turned back in shame; let the poor and oppressed praise your name.
21 No vuelva avergonzado el abatido: el afligido y el menesteroso alabarán tu nombre.
22 Arise, God; defend your own honor; call to mind how fools insult you all day long.
22 Levántate, oh Dios, aboga tu causa: acuérdate de cómo el insensato te injuria cada día.
23 Do not forget the voice of your adversaries or the uproar of those who continually defy you.
23 No olvides las voces de tus enemigos: el alboroto de los que se levantan contra ti sube continuamente.

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 LXXIII)

    This Psalm hath an inscription, that is, a title, "There have failed the hymns of David, the son of Jesse. A Psalm of Asaph himself." So many Psalms we have on the titles whereof is written the name David, nowhere there is added, "son of Jesse," except in this alone.

  2. Quotes verse 74:12 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XVII, Chapter 4)

    In the same way we may suitably understand what we read in the psalm, "But God, our King before the worlds, hath wrought salvation in the midst of the earth;" so that the Lord Jesus may be understood to be our God who is before the worlds, because by Him the worlds were made, working our salvation in the midst …

  3. Quotes verse 74:12 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture XIII)

    It is not my word, but it is a prophet who hath said, Thou hast wrought salvation in the midst of the earth.
