Webster Noah Webster's Bible (1833)
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 To the chief Musician, Al-taschith, Michtam of David; when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him. Deliver me from my enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.
1 Al Músico principal: sobre No destruyas: Michtam de David, cuando envió Saúl, y guardaron la casa para matarlo. LÍBRAME de mis enemigos, oh Dios mío: ponme en salvo de los que contra mí se levantan.
2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.
2 Líbrame de los que obran iniquidad, y sálvame de hombres sanguinarios.
3 For lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not [for] my transgression, nor [for] my sin, O LORD.
3 Porque he aquí están acechando mi vida: hanse juntado contra mí fuertes, no por falta mía, ni pecado mío, oh Jehová.
4 They run and prepare themselves without [my] fault: awake to help me, and behold.
4 Sin delito [mío] corren y se aperciben: despierta para venir á mi encuentro, y mira.
5 Thou therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah.
5 Y tú, Jehová Dios de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel, despierta para visitar todas las gentes: no hayas misericordia de todos los que se rebelan con iniquidad. (Selah.)
6 They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go about the city.
6 Volveránse á la tarde, ladrarán como perros, y rodearán la ciudad.
7 Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords [are] in their lips: for who, [say they] , doth hear?
7 He aquí proferirán con su boca; cuchillos [están] en sus labios, porque [dicen]: ¿Quién oye?
8 But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.
8 Mas tú, Jehová, te reirás de ellos, te burlarás de todas las gentes.
9 [Because of] his strength will I wait upon thee: for God [is] my defense.
9 De su fuerza esperaré yo en ti: porque Dios es mi defensa.
10 The God of my mercy will succor me: God will let me see [my desire] upon my enemies.
10 El Dios de mi misericordia me prevendrá: Dios me hará ver en mis enemigos [mi deseo].
11 Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O LORD our shield.
11 No los matarás, porque mi pueblo no se olvide: hazlos vagar con tu fortaleza; y abátelos, oh Jehová, escudo nuestro,
12 [For] the sin of their mouth [and] the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying [which] they speak.
12 [Por] el pecado de su boca, [por] la palabra de sus labios; y sean presos por su soberbia, y por la maldición y mentira que profieren.
13 Consume [them] in wrath, consume [them] , that they [may] not [be] : and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob to the ends of the earth. Selah.
13 Acábalos con furor, acábalos, y no sean: y sepan que Dios domina en Jacob hasta los fines de la tierra. (Selah.)
14 And at evening let them return; [and] let them make a noise like a dog, and go about the city.
14 Vuelvan pues á la tarde, y ladren como perros, y rodeen la ciudad.
15 Let them wander up and down for food, and grudge if they are not satisfied.
15 Anden ellos errantes para [hallar qué] comer: y si no se saciaren, murmuren.
16 But I will sing of thy power; yes, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defense and refuge in the day of my trouble.
16 Yo empero cantaré tu fortaleza, y loaré de mañana tu misericordia: porque has sido mi amparo y refugio en el día de mi angustia.
17 To thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God [is] my defense, [and] the God of my mercy.
17 Fortaleza mía, á ti cantaré; porque eres Dios de mi amparo, Dios de mi 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 LVIII)

    The words which we have sung must be rather hearkened to by us, than proclaimed. For to all men as it were in an assemblage of mankind, the Truth crieth, "If truly indeed justice ye speak, judge right things, ye sons of men" (ver. 1). For to what unjust man is it not an easy thing to speak justice?

  2. Quotes verse 59:9 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XIII, Chapters 21–23)

    … with fears and sorrows, he may cry, if there be yet soul in him to feel his ills, in the words of the psalm, "My soul is cast down within me," and when chastened, may say," Because of his strength I will wait upon Thee." These and similar allegorical interpretations may be suitably put upon Paradise without giving offence to …

  3. Quotes verse 59:6 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture XIII)

    … that He was put in bonds before the gates of the city, thou hast heard before, if thou rememberest the exposition of the Psalm, which has told the time and the place; how they returned at evening, and hungered like dogs, and encompassed the city.
