Webster Noah Webster's Bible (1833)
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm [or] Song of David. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him.
1 Al Músico principal: Salmo de David: Canción. LEVÁNTESE Dios, sean esparcidos sus enemigos, y huyan de su presencia los que le aborrecen.
2 As smoke is driven away, [so] drive [them] away: as wax melteth before the fire, [so] let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
2 Como es lanzado el humo, los lanzarás: como se derrite la cera delante del fuego, así perecerán los impíos delante de Dios.
3 But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God: yes, let them exceedingly rejoice.
3 Mas los justos se alegrarán: gozarse han delante de Dios, y saltarán de alegría.
4 Sing to God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him.
4 Cantad á Dios, cantad salmos á su nombre: ensalzad al que sube sobre los cielos en JAH su nombre, y alegraos delante de él.
5 A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, [is] God in his holy habitation.
5 Padre de huérfanos y defensor de viudas, es Dios en la morada de su santuario:
6 God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those who are bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry [land] .
6 El Dios que hace habitar en familia los solos; que saca á los aprisionados con grillos: mas los rebeldes habitan en sequedad.
7 O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness; Selah:
7 Oh Dios, cuando tú saliste delante de tu pueblo, cuando anduviste por el desierto, (Selah,)
8 The earth shook, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God: [even] Sinai itself [was moved] at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
8 La tierra tembló; también destilaron los cielos á la presencia de Dios: aquel Sinaí [tembló] delante de Dios, del Dios de Israel.
9 Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain, by which thou didst confirm thy inheritance, when it was weary.
9 Abundante lluvia esparciste, oh Dios, á tu heredad; y cuando se cansó, tú la recreaste.
10 Thy congregation hath dwelt therein: thou, O God, hast prepared of thy goodness for the poor.
10 Los que son de tu grey han morado en ella: por tu bondad, oh Dios, has provisto al pobre.
11 The LORD gave the word: great [was] the company of those that published [it] .
11 El Señor daba palabra: de las evangelizantes había grande ejército.
12 Kings of armies fled apace: and she that tarried at home divided the spoil.
12 Huyeron, huyeron reyes de ejércitos; y las que se quedaban en casa partían los despojos.
13 Though ye have lain among the pots, [yet shall ye be as] the wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold.
13 Bien que fuisteis echados entre los tiestos, [seréis como] las alas de la paloma cubierta de plata, y sus plumas con amarillez de oro.
14 When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it was [white] as snow in Salmon.
14 Cuando esparció el Omnipotente los reyes en ella, emblanquecióse [ésta] como la nieve en Salmón.
15 The hill of God [is as] the hill of Bashan; a high hill [as] the hill of Bashan.
15 Monte de Dios es el monte de Basán; monte alto el de Basán.
16 Why leap ye, ye lofty hills? [this is] the hill [which] God desireth to dwell in; yes, the LORD will dwell [in it] for ever.
16 ¿Por qué os levantáis, oh montes altos? Este monte amó Dios para su asiento; ciertamente Jehová habitará [en él] para siempre.
17 The chariots of God [are] twenty thousand, [even] thousands of angels: the LORD [is] among them, [as in] Sinai, in the holy [place] .
17 Los carros de Dios son veinte mil, [y más] millares de ángeles. El Señor entre ellos, [como] en Sinaí, [así] en el santuario.
18 Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts for men; yes, [for] the rebellious also, that the LORD God might dwell [among them] .
18 Subiste á lo alto, cautivaste la cautividad, tomaste dones para los hombres, y también [para] los rebeldes, para que habite [entre ellos] JAH Dios.
19 Blessed [be] the LORD, [who] daily loadeth us [with benefits] , [even] the God of our salvation. Selah.
19 Bendito el Señor; cada día nos colma [de beneficios] el Dios de nuestra salud. (Selah.)
20 [He that is] our God [is] the God of salvation; and to God the LORD [belong] the issues from death.
20 Dios, nuestro Dios ha de salvarnos; y de Dios Jehová es el librar de la muerte.
21 But God will wound the head of his enemies, [and] the hairy scalp of such one as goeth on still in his trespasses.
21 Ciertamente Dios herirá la cabeza de sus enemigos, la cabelluda mollera del que camina en sus pecados.
22 The LORD said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring [my people] again from the depths of the sea.
22 El Señor dijo: De Basán haré volver, [te] haré volver de los profundos de la mar:
23 That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thy enemies, [and] the tongue of thy dogs in the same.
23 Porque tu pie se enrojecerá de sangre de tus enemigos, y de ella la lengua de tus perros.
24 They have seen thy goings, O God; [even] the goings of my God, my King, in the sanctuary.
24 Vieron tus caminos, oh Dios; los caminos de mi Dios, de mi Rey, en el santuario.
25 The singers went before, the players on instruments [followed] after; among [them were] the damsels playing with timbrels.
25 Los cantores iban delante, los tañedores detrás; en medio, las doncellas con adufes.
26 Bless ye God in the congregations, [even] the LORD, from the fountain of Israel.
26 Bendecid á Dios en congregaciones: al Señor, [vosotros de] la estirpe de Israel.
27 There [is] little Benjamin [with] their ruler, the princes of Judah [and] their counsel, the princes of Zebulun, [and] the princes of Naphtali.
27 Allí estaba el joven Benjamín señoreador de ellos, los príncipes de Judá en su congregación, los príncipes de Zabulón, los príncipes de Nephtalí.
28 Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.
28 Tu Dios ha ordenado tu fuerza; confirma, oh Dios, lo que has obrado en nosotros.
29 Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents to thee.
29 Por razón de tu templo en Jerusalem los reyes te ofrecerán dones.
30 Rebuke the company of spearmen, the multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the people, [till every one shall] submit himself with pieces of silver: scatter thou the people [that] delight in war.
30 Reprime la reunión de gentes armadas, la multitud de toros con los becerros de los pueblos, [hasta que todos] se sometan con [sus] piezas de plata: disipa los pueblos que se complacen en la guerra.
31 Princes shall come out of Egypt; Cush shall soon stretch out her hands to God.
31 Vendrán príncipes de Egipto; Etiopía apresurará sus manos á Dios.
32 Sing to God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises [to] the LORD; Selah:
32 Reinos de la tierra, cantad á Dios, cantad al Señor (Selah);
33 To him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, [which were] of old; lo, he doth send out his voice, [and that] a mighty voice.
33 Al que cabalga sobre los cielos de los cielos que son de antiguo: he aquí á su voz dará voz de fortaleza.
34 Ascribe ye strength to God: his excellence [is] over Israel, and his strength [is] in the clouds.
34 Atribuid fortaleza á Dios: sobre Israel es su magnificencia, y su poder está en los cielos.
35 O God, [thou art] terrible out of thy holy places: the God of Israel [is] he that giveth strength and power to [his] people. Blessed [be] God.
35 Terrible [eres], oh Dios, desde tus santuarios: el Dios de Israel, él da fortaleza y vigor á [su] pueblo. Bendito Dios.

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).

    Your Love remembereth, that in two Psalms, which have been already treated of, we have stirred up our soul to bless the Lord, and with godly chant have said, "Bless thou, O my soul, the Lord."
