Salmos 27:7

7 Oye, oh Jehová, mi voz con que á ti clamo; Y ten misericordia de mí, respóndeme.

Salmos 27:7 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 27:7

Hear, O Lord, [when] I cry with my voice
Which is to be understood of prayer, and that in the time of distress; and of vocal prayer, as distinguished from mental prayer; and the phrase denotes the vehemency and intenseness of it: and the request is, that the Lord would hear it; not only as he is omniscient and omnipresent, and so hears the prayers of all, good and bad; but as a God gracious and merciful, who sometimes very quickly hears, and answers in a gracious way, and sometimes seems to turn a deaf car, to shut out the prayers of his people, and cover himself with a cloud, that they should not pass through, or, however, defers an answer to it for a little while; yet, sooner or later, he always shows himself a God hearing prayer;

have mercy also upon me;
by delivering him out of his temporal distresses, and by forgiving his iniquities;

and answer me;
by speaking a word in season; commanding off the affliction he lay under, and by saying to him that his sins were forgiven him.

Salmos 27:7 In-Context

5 Porque él me esconderá en su tabernáculo en el día del mal; Ocultaráme en lo reservado de su pabellón; Pondráme en alto sobre una roca.

6 Y luego ensalzará mi cabeza sobre mis enemigos en derredor de mí: Y yo sacrificaré en su tabernáculo sacrificios de júbilo: Cantaré y salmearé á Jehová.

7 Oye, oh Jehová, mi voz con que á ti clamo; Y ten misericordia de mí, respóndeme.

8 Mi corazón ha dicho de ti: Buscad mi rostro. Tu rostro buscaré, oh Jehová.

9 No escondas tu rostro de mí, No apartes con ira á tu siervo: Mi ayuda has sido; No me dejes y no me desampares, Dios de mi salud.
