1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. LORD, thou hast searched me, and known [me].
1 Al Músico principal: Salmo de David. OH Jehová, tú me has examinado y conocido.
1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. Yahweh, you have searched me, and you know me.
2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
2 Tú has conocido mi sentarme y mi levantarme, has entendido desde lejos mis pensamientos.
2 You know my sitting down and my rising up. You perceive my thoughts from afar.
3 Thou searchest out my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
3 Mi senda y mi acostarme has rodeado, y estás impuesto en todos mis caminos.
3 You search out my path and my lying down, and are acquainted with all my ways.
4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.
4 Pues aun no está la palabra en mi lengua, [y] he aquí, oh Jehová, tú la sabes toda.
4 For there is not a word on my tongue, but behold, Yahweh, you know it altogether.
5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
5 Detrás y delante me guarneciste, y sobre mí pusiste tu mano.
5 You hem me in behind and before. You laid your hand on me.
6 [Such ]knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.
6 Más maravillosa es la ciencia que mi capacidad; alta es, no puedo comprenderla.
6 This knowledge is beyond me. It’s lofty. I can’t attain it.
7 Whither shall I from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
7 ¿Adónde me iré de tu espíritu? ¿y adónde huiré de tu presencia?
7 Where could I go from your Spirit? Or where could I flee from your presence?
8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in Sheol, behold, thou art there.
8 Si subiere á los cielos, allí estás tú: y si en abismo hiciere mi estrado, he aquí allí tú estás.
8 If I ascend up into heaven, you are there. If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, you are there!
9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
9 Si tomare las alas del alba, y habitare en el extremo de la mar,
9 If I take the wings of the dawn, and settle in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
10 Aun allí me guiará tu mano, y me asirá tu diestra.
10 even there your hand will lead me, and your right hand will hold me.
11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall overwhelm me, and the light about me shall be night;
11 Si dijere: Ciertamente las tinieblas me encubrirán; aun la noche resplandecerá tocante á mí.
11 If I say, “Surely the darkness will overwhelm me. The light around me will be night,”
12 Even the darkness hideth not from thee, but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike [to thee].
12 Aun las tinieblas no encubren de ti, y la noche resplandece como el día: lo mismo [te son] las tinieblas que la luz.
12 even the darkness doesn’t hide from you, but the night shines as the day. The darkness is like light to you.
13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.
13 Porque tú poseiste mis riñones; cubrísteme en el vientre de mi madre.
13 For you formed my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 I will give thanks unto thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: wonderful are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
14 Te alabaré; porque formidables, maravillosas son tus obras: estoy maravillado, y mi alma lo conoce mucho.
14 I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well.
15 My frame was not hidden from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
15 No fué encubierto de ti mi cuerpo, bien que en oculto fuí formado, [y] compaginado en lo más bajo de la tierra.
15 My frame wasn’t hidden from you, when I was made in secret, woven together in the depths of the earth.
16 Thine eyes did see mine unperfect substance, and in thy book were all [my members ]written, which day by day were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
16 Mi embrión vieron tus ojos, y en tu libro estaban escritas todas aquellas cosas que fueron luego formadas, sin [faltar] una de ellas.
16 Your eyes saw my body. In your book they were all written, the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there were none of them.
17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
17 Así que ¡cuán preciosos me son, oh Dios, tus pensamientos! ¡cuán multiplicadas son sus cuentas!
17 How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is their sum!
18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.
18 Si los cuento, multiplícanse más que la arena: despierto, y aun estoy contigo.
18 If I would count them, they are more in number than the sand. When I wake up, I am still with you.
19 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloodthirsty men.
19 De cierto, oh Dios, matarás al impío; apartaos pues de mí, hombres sanguinarios.
19 If only you, God, would kill the wicked. Get away from me, you bloodthirsty men!
20 For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take [thy name ]in vain.
20 Porque blasfemias dicen ellos contra ti: tus enemigos toman en vano [tu nombre].
20 For they speak against you wickedly. Your enemies take your name in vain.
21 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?
21 ¿No tengo en odio, oh Jehová, á los que te aborrecen, y me conmuevo contra tus enemigos?
21 Yahweh, don’t I hate those who hate you? Am I not grieved with those who rise up against you?
22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.
22 Aborrézcolos con perfecto odio; téngolos por enemigos.
22 I hate them with perfect hatred. They have become my enemies.
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me and know my thoughts:
23 Examíname, oh Dios, y conoce mi corazón: pruébame y reconoce mis pensamientos:
23 Search me, God, and know my heart. Try me, and know my thoughts.
24 And see if there be any way of wickedness in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
24 Y ve si hay en mí camino de perversidad, y guíame en el camino eterno.
24 See if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the everlasting way.

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
The title of this Psalm is brief and simple, and need not detain us; since we know whose resemblance David wore, and since in him we recognise ourselves also, for we too are members of that Body. The whole title is, "To David himself." Let us see then, what is to David himself.

If I ascend into heaven, Thou art there; if I go away even to the uttermost parts of the earth, there is Thy right hand; if I make my bed in the abyss, there is Thy Spirit." Whither, then, shall any one go, or where shall he escape from Him who comprehends all things?
For whither fled they when they fled from Thy presence? Or where dost Thou not find them?

… have dared to circumscribe God's providence by the clouds and the heaven, and to alienate from God the things on earth; having forgotten the Psalm which says, If I go up into heaven, Thou art there, if I go down into hell, Thou art present.

Yet the beholding of heaven and earth does not make us know God better than the attentive study of our being does; I am, says the Prophet, fearfully and wonderfully made; that is to say, in observing myself I have known Thy infinite wisdom.
