Notes on this text (1)
VBL Free Bible Version (Spanish)
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 Un Salmo de David. El Señor es mi pastor, y por ello tengo todo lo que necesito.
1 Salmo de David. JEHOVÁ es mi pastor; nada me faltará.
2 Me da descanso en verdes pastos. Me guía a corrientes tranquilas.
2 En lugares de delicados pastos me hará yacer: junto á aguas de reposo me pastoreará.
3 Me consuela, me guía por el camino correcto, por su nombre.
3 Confortará mi alma; guiaráme por sendas de justicia por amor de su nombre.
4 Incluso cuando camino por el valle oscuro de la muerte, no tengo miedo de ningún mal, porque tú estás ahí conmigo. Tu vara y tu bastón me protegen.
4 Aunque ande en valle de sombra de muerte, no temeré mal alguno; porque tú estarás conmigo: tu vara y tu cayado me infundirán aliento.
5 Preparas un banquete para mí en presencia mis enemigos. Me honras ungiendo mi cabeza con aceite. ¡Mi copa está tan llena que se desborda!
5 Aderezarás mesa delante de mí, en presencia de mis angustiadores: ungiste mi cabeza con aceite: mi copa está rebosando.
6 Estoy completamente seguro de que tu bondad y tu amor inagotable estarán conmigo toda mi vida, y viviré para siempre en la casa del Señor.
6 Ciertamente el bien y la misericordia me seguirán todos los días de mi vida: y en la casa de Jehová moraré por largos días.

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 XXII)

    "To the end," for His own resurrection, the Lord Jesus Christ Himself speaketh. For in the morning on the first day of the week was His resurrection, whereby He was taken up, into eternal life, "Over whom death shall have no more dominion." Now what follows is spoken in the person of The Crucified.
