WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Oración de alguien que está sufriendo y está cansado, encomendando sus problemas al el Señor. Por favor, Señor, ¡escucha mi oración! ¡Escucha mi clamor a ti pidiendo ayuda!
1 A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed and pours out his complaint before Yahweh. Hear my prayer, Yahweh! Let my cry come to you.
2 ¡No escondas tu rostro de mí en mis horas de angustia! Vuélvete y escúchame, y responde rápido cuando llamo.
2 Don’t hide your face from me in the day of my distress. Turn your ear to me. Answer me quickly in the day when I call.
3 ¡Porque mi vida está desapareciendo como el humo; siento como si mi cuerpo estuviera en llamas!
3 For my days consume away like smoke. My bones are burned as a torch.
4 ¡Soy como la grama que se secó, y se marchitó, ya ni recuerdo cuándo debo comer!
4 My heart is blighted like grass, and withered, for I forget to eat my bread.
5 Mis gemidos me han revestido; mis huesos se dejan ver a través de mi piel.
5 By reason of the voice of my groaning, my bones stick to my skin.
6 Soy como un búho del desierto, como una pequeña lechuza entre las ruinas.
6 I am like a pelican of the wilderness. I have become as an owl of the waste places.
7 No puedo conciliar el sueño. Soy como un pájaro solitario en la azotea.
7 I watch, and have become like a sparrow that is alone on the housetop.
8 Mis enemigos se mofan de mí. Se burlan y maldicen en mi nombre.
8 My enemies reproach me all day. Those who are mad at me use my name as a curse.
9 Las cenizas son mi comida; mis lágrimas gotean encima de mi bebida,
9 For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mixed my drink with tears,
10 Por tu hostilidad y tu enojo, me recogiste y me volviste arrojar bien lejos.
10 because of your indignation and your wrath; for you have taken me up and thrown me away.
11 Mi vida se desvanece lentamente como sombras nocturnas, me estoy marchitando como la grama.
11 My days are like a long shadow. I have withered like grass.
12 Pero tú, Señor, reinarás para siempre, tu gloria perdurará por todas las generaciones.
12 But you, Yahweh, will remain forever; your renown endures to all generations.
13 Te levantarás y tendrás piedad de Jerusalén, porque es tiempo de que seas gentil con la ciudad, el tiempo ha llegado.
13 You will arise and have mercy on Zion, for it is time to have pity on her. Yes, the set time has come.
14 Porque las personas que te siguen aman sus piedras; ¡valoran incluso su polvo!
14 For your servants take pleasure in her stones, and have pity on her dust.
15 Entonces las naciones te temerán, Señor; todos los reyes de la tierra se postrarán ante tu presencia.
15 So the nations will fear Yahweh’s name, all the kings of the earth your glory.
16 Porque el Señor reconstruirá Jerusalén; y aparecerá con gloria.
16 For Yahweh has built up Zion. He has appeared in his glory.
17 Atenderá las oraciones de los desamparados; no ignorará sus pedidos.
17 He has responded to the prayer of the destitute, and has not despised their prayer.
18 Que esto sea recordado por las generaciones futuras, para que las personas que aún no han nacido alaben al Señor:
18 This will be written for the generation to come. A people which will be created will praise Yah,
19 Porque él mira desde los cielos, desde lo más alto de su lugar santo; él observa a la tierra desde su trono,
19 for he has looked down from the height of his sanctuary. From heaven, Yahweh saw the earth,
20 para responder a los lamentos de los prisioneros, para liberar a los hijos de la muerte.
20 to hear the groans of the prisoner, to free those who are condemned to death,
21 Y como resultado la maravillosa naturaleza del Señor será alabada en Jerusalén con alabanzas,
21 that men may declare Yahweh’s name in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem,
22 cuando las personas de todos los reinos se reúnan para adorar al Señor.
22 when the peoples are gathered together, the kingdoms, to serve Yahweh.
23 Pero, en cuanto a mí, él me quitó la salud cuando era joven, acortando mi vida.
23 He weakened my strength along the course. He shortened my days.
24 Clamé al Señor, “Mi Dios, ¡No me arrebates mi vida mientras aún soy joven! Tú eres el único que vive para siempre.
24 I said, “My God, don’t take me away in the middle of my days. Your years are throughout all generations.
25 Hace mucho tiempo creaste la tierra; hiciste los cielos.
25 Of old, you laid the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the work of your hands.
26 Y ellos llegarán a su fin, pero tú no. Todos ellos se desgastarán como la ropa, y tú los cambiarás y los tirarás.
26 They will perish, but you will endure. Yes, all of them will wear out like a garment. You will change them like a cloak, and they will be changed.
27 Pero tú eres el único que vive para siempre; tus años nunca llegarán a un fin.
27 But you are the same. Your years will have no end.
28 Nuestros hijos vivirán contigo, y los hijos de nuestros hijos crecerán en tu presencia”.
28 The children of your servants will continue. Their offspring will be established before you.”

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 CI)

    In this Psalm, we ought to seek in the whole body of it what we find in the first verse: "Mercy and judgment will I sing unto Thee, O Lord" (ver. 1).

  2. Quotes verse 102:25–28 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book IV, Preface)

    The children of Thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall be established for ever;" pointing out plainly what things they are that pass away, and who it is that doth endure for ever--God, together with His servants.

  3. Quotes verse 102:20 Augustine of Hippo, Confessions (Book III, Chapters VIII–XI)

    So, then, by a humble piety we return to Thee; and thou purgest us from our evil customs, and art merciful unto the sins of those who confess unto Thee, and dost "hear the groaning of the prisoner," and dost loosen us from those fetters which we have forged for ourselves, if we lift not up against Thee the horns …

  4. Quotes verse 102:3 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily II)

    On this account also one hath said, "My days have failed like smoke." He indeed was referring to their shortness of duration, and to their unsubstantial nature, but I would say that we should take what is said, not in this sense alone, but also as to their turbid character.

  5. Quotes verse 102:25 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture XV)

    Hear David the Prophet saying, Thou, Lord, in the beginning didst lay the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of Thy hands; they shall perish, but Thou remainest.
