1 Para el director de música. De David, siervo del Señor, quien dirigió al Señor las palabras de este canto cuando lo libró de todos sus enemigos y de Saúl. Dijo: Te amo, Señor, mi fuerza.
1 For the Chief Musician. By David the servant of Yahweh, who spoke to Yahweh the words of this song in the day that Yahweh delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul. He said, I love you, Yahweh, my strength.
2 El Señor es mi roca, mi fortaleza y mi libertador. Mi Dios es mi roca; en él confío. Es mi escudo, la fuerza de mi salvación y mi torre alta.
2 Yahweh is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.
3 Clamaré al Señor, digno de alabanza, y quedaré a salvo de mis enemigos.
3 I call on Yahweh, who is worthy to be praised; and I am saved from my enemies.
4 Las cuerdas de la muerte me rodeaban, y los mares del mal me llenaban de terror.
4 The cords of death surrounded me. The floods of ungodliness made me afraid.
5 Las cuerdas del lugar de los muertos me rodeaban; las trampas de la muerte me alcanzaban.
5 The cords of Sheol were around me. The snares of death came on me.
6 En mi angustia clamé al Señor; pedí ayuda a mi Dios. Desde su santo templo escuchó mi voz; mi oración llegó a sus oídos.
6 In my distress I called on Yahweh, and cried to my God. He heard my voice out of his temple. My cry before him came into his ears.
7 Entonces la tierra se sacudió y tembló; los cimientos de las montañas se movieron y estremecieron, porque él estaba enojado.
7 Then the earth shook and trembled. The foundations also of the mountains quaked and were shaken, because he was angry.
8 Salía humo de su nariz y fuego destructor de su boca; con él encendía llamas.
8 Smoke went out of his nostrils. Consuming fire came out of his mouth. Coals were kindled by it.
9 Inclinó los cielos y descendió; bajo sus pies había oscuridad.
9 He bowed the heavens also, and came down. Thick darkness was under his feet.
10 Montado en un querubín, voló; avanzó veloz sobre las alas del viento.
10 He rode on a cherub, and flew. Yes, he soared on the wings of the wind.
11 Hizo de la oscuridad su escondite; las aguas oscuras y las densas nubes del cielo lo rodeaban como una tienda.
11 He made darkness his hiding place, his pavilion around him, darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.
12 Ante el resplandor de su presencia, sus nubes oscuras pasaron derramando granizo y fuego.
12 At the brightness before him his thick clouds passed, hailstones and coals of fire.
13 El Señor tronó en los cielos; resonó la voz del Altísimo entre granizo y fuego.
13 Yahweh also thundered in the sky. The Most High uttered his voice: hailstones and coals of fire.
14 Lanzó sus flechas y dispersó a sus enemigos; los llenó de confusión con sus relámpagos.
14 He sent out his arrows, and scattered them. He routed them with great lightning bolts.
15 Se vieron los lechos profundos de las aguas y quedaron al descubierto los cimientos del mundo, ante tu reprensión, Señor, ante el soplo de tu boca.
15 Then the channels of waters appeared. The foundations of the world were laid bare at your rebuke, Yahweh, at the blast of the breath of your nostrils.
16 Desde lo alto extendió la mano y me tomó; me sacó de las grandes aguas.
16 He sent from on high. He took me. He drew me out of many waters.
17 Me libró de mi poderoso enemigo y de quienes me odiaban, porque eran más fuertes que yo.
17 He delivered me from my strong enemy, from those who hated me; for they were too mighty for me.
18 Me atacaron en el día de mi angustia, pero el Señor fue mi apoyo.
18 They came on me in the day of my calamity, but Yahweh was my support.
19 Me sacó a un lugar amplio; me salvó porque se complacía en mí.
19 He brought me out also into a large place. He delivered me, because he delighted in me.
20 El Señor me recompensa por mi justicia, porque mis manos están limpias delante de él.
20 Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness. According to the cleanness of my hands, he has recompensed me.
21 He seguido los caminos del Señor; no me he apartado de mi Dios para pecar.
21 For I have kept the ways of Yahweh, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
22 He tenido presentes todos sus juicios y no he rechazado sus leyes.
22 For all his ordinances were before me. I didn’t put away his statutes from me.
23 He sido íntegro delante de él y me he guardado del pecado.
23 I was also blameless with him. I kept myself from my iniquity.
24 Por eso el Señor me ha recompensado por mi justicia, porque mis manos están limpias ante sus ojos.
24 Therefore Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.
25 Al que tiene misericordia le muestras misericordia; con el íntegro te muestras íntegro.
25 With the merciful you will show yourself merciful. With the perfect man, you will show yourself perfect.
26 El santo verá que tú eres santo; pero para el perverso eres un juez severo.
26 With the pure, you will show yourself pure. With the crooked you will show yourself shrewd.
27 Tú salvas a los afligidos, pero humillas a los orgullosos.
27 For you will save the afflicted people, but the arrogant eyes you will bring down.
28 Tú, Señor, serás mi luz; tú, mi Dios, iluminarás mi oscuridad.
28 For you will light my lamp, Yahweh. My God will light up my darkness.
29 Con tu ayuda he atravesado la muralla que me encerraba; con la ayuda de mi Dios he saltado un muro.
29 For by you, I advance through a troop. By my God, I leap over a wall.
30 El camino de Dios es perfecto; la palabra del Señor ha sido probada. Él es un escudo para todos los que confían en él.
30 As for God, his way is perfect. Yahweh’s word is tried. He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.
31 ¿Quién es Dios sino el Señor? ¿Quién es una roca sino nuestro Dios?
31 For who is God, except Yahweh? Who is a rock, besides our God,
32 Dios me rodea de fuerza y me guía por un camino recto.
32 the God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect?
33 Hace mis pies como los del ciervo y me pone en las alturas.
33 He makes my feet like deer’s feet, and sets me on my high places.
34 Me enseña a luchar, y mis brazos pueden doblar un arco de bronce.
34 He teaches my hands to war, so that my arms bend a bow of bronze.
35 Me has dado el escudo de tu salvación; tu mano derecha me ha sostenido y tu misericordia me ha engrandecido.
35 You have also given me the shield of your salvation. Your right hand sustains me. Your gentleness has made me great.
36 Has ensanchado el camino bajo mis pies para que no resbalen.
36 You have enlarged my steps under me, My feet have not slipped.
37 Persigo a mis enemigos y los alcanzo; no regreso hasta vencerlos a todos.
37 I will pursue my enemies, and overtake them. I won’t turn away until they are consumed.
38 Los heriré hasta que no puedan levantarse; quedarán tendidos bajo mis pies.
38 I will strike them through, so that they will not be able to rise. They shall fall under my feet.
39 Tú me has armado de fuerza para la batalla; has sometido a quienes se levantan contra mí.
39 For you have armed me with strength to the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.
40 Has hecho huir a mis enemigos, y así los he destruido.
40 You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me.
41 Gritaban, pero nadie los ayudaba; clamaban aun al Señor, pero él no les respondía.
41 They cried, but there was no one to save; even to Yahweh, but he didn’t answer them.
42 Quedaron triturados como polvo ante el viento; fueron arrojados como la suciedad de las calles.
42 Then I beat them small as the dust before the wind. I cast them out as the mire of the streets.
43 Me has librado de las luchas del pueblo y me has puesto al frente de las naciones; un pueblo que no conocía me servirá.
43 You have delivered me from the strivings of the people. You have made me the head of the nations. A people whom I have not known shall serve me.
44 En cuanto oigan hablar de mí, me obedecerán; los extranjeros fingirán obediencia y se someterán a mi autoridad.
44 As soon as they hear of me they shall obey me. The foreigners shall submit themselves to me.
45 Perderán sus fuerzas y saldrán de sus escondites temblando de miedo.
45 The foreigners shall fade away, and shall come trembling out of their strongholds.
46 ¡El Señor vive! ¡Alabada sea mi roca! ¡Sea honrado el Dios de mi salvación!
46 Yahweh lives! Blessed be my rock. Exalted be the God of my salvation,
47 Dios castiga a mis enemigos y somete los pueblos a mi dominio.
