Notes on this text (1)
- Greek and Latin Bibles number most Psalms one lower than Hebrew and English Bibles.
1 Praise ye Jah! Praise ye the name of Jehovah, Praise, ye servants of Jehovah,
1 Aleluya. ALABAD el nombre de Jehová; alabad[le], siervos de Jehová;
2 Who are standing in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God.
2 Los que estáis en la casa de Jehová, en los atrios de la casa de nuestro Dios.
3 Praise ye Jah! for Jehovah [is] good, Sing praise to His name, for [it is] pleasant.
3 Alabad á JAH, porque es bueno Jehová: cantad salmos á su nombre, porque es suave.
4 For Jacob hath Jah chosen for Himself, Israel for His peculiar treasure.
4 Porque JAH ha escogido á Jacob para sí, á Israel por posesión suya.
5 For I have known that great [is] Jehovah, Yea, our Lord [is] above all gods.
5 Porque yo se que Jehová es grande, y el Señor nuestro, mayor que todos los dioses.
6 All that Jehovah pleased He hath done, In the heavens and in earth, In the seas and all deep places,
6 Todo lo que quiso Jehová, ha hecho en los cielos y en la tierra, en las mares y en todos los abismos.
7 Causing vapours to ascend from the end of the earth, Lightnings for the rain He hath made, Bringing forth wind from His treasures.
7 El hace subir las nubes del cabo de la tierra; él hizo los relámpagos para la lluvia; él saca los vientos de sus tesoros.
8 Who smote the first-born of Egypt, From man unto beast.
8 El [es el] que hirió los primogénitos de Egipto, desde el hombre hasta la bestia.
9 He sent tokens and wonders into thy midst, O Egypt, On Pharaoh and on all his servants.
9 Envió señales y prodigios en medio de ti, oh Egipto, sobre Faraón, y sobre todos sus siervos.
10 Who smote many nations, and slew strong kings,
10 El que hirió muchas gentes, y mató reyes poderosos:
11 Even Sihon king of the Amorite, And Og king of Bashan, And all kingdoms of Canaan.
11 A Sehón rey Amorrheo, y á Og rey de Basán, y á todos los reinos de Canaán.
12 And He gave their land an inheritance, An inheritance to Israel His people,
12 Y dió la tierra de ellos en heredad, en heredad á Israel su pueblo.
13 O Jehovah, Thy name [is] to the age, O Jehovah, Thy memorial to all generations.
13 Oh Jehová, eterno [es] tu nombre; tu memoria, oh Jehová para generación y generación.
14 For Jehovah doth judge His people, And for His servants comforteth Himself.
14 Porque juzgará Jehová su pueblo, y arrepentiráse sobre sus siervos.
15 The idols of the nations [are] silver and gold, Work of the hands of man.
15 Los ídolos de las gentes son plata y oro, obra de manos de hombres.
16 A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not,
16 Tienen boca, y no hablan; tienen ojos, y no ven;
17 Ears they have, and they give not ear, Nose — there is no breath in their mouth!
17 Tienen orejas, y no oyen; tampoco hay espíritu en sus bocas.
18 Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them.
18 Como ellos son los que los hacen; todos los que en ellos confían.
19 O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah, O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah,
19 Casa de Israel, bendecid á Jehová: casa de Aarón, bendecid á Jehová:
20 O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah, Those fearing Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah.
20 Casa de Leví, bendecid á Jehová: los que teméis á Jehová, bendecid á Jehová.
21 Blessed [is] Jehovah from Zion, Inhabiting Jerusalem — praise ye Jah!
21 Bendito de Sión Jehová, que mora en Jerusalem. Aleluya.

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).
(ver. 1), "who stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God" (ver. 2). Why has he added, "in the courts"? Courts mean the wider spaces of a house. He who stands in the courts is not straitened, is not confined, in some fashion is enlarged.

Lo, the whole world crieth out in the Church of God, "I know that the Lord is great." Yet doubtless there are but few who are saved.

For so many measures of waters lie upon the clouds, yet they are not rent: but come down with all good order upon the earth. Who bringeth the winds out of their treasuries?

For whatsoever the Lord pleased that did He in heaven and in earth, and no one resisted His will.

… with how great assurance will the purified mass, standing at the Right Hand, fearing now for itself the admixture of no evil men, nor the loss of any of the good, now about to reign with Christ, say, "I know that the Lord is great"!
