Salmos 62:2

2 Solo él es mi roca y mi salvación,
mi fortaleza donde jamás seré sacudido.

Salmos 62:2 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 62:2

He only [is] my Rock and my salvation
The Rock on which the church is built, and every believer; and which was David's safety, shelter, and shade, and which made him easy in his present state; and he was the author of his salvation, and the rock and strength of it, ( Psalms 95:1 ) ;

[he is] my defence;
or refuge; see ( Psalms 9:9 ) ( 46:7 ) ( Psalms 59:9 Psalms 59:17 ) ;

I shall not be greatly moved;
or "with much motion", as Kimchi; or "with great motions", as Jarchi: he could not be moved off of the rock on which he was built; nor out of the city of refuge, whither he had betook himself for safety; and though he might be troubled in spirit, and shaken in mind, and staggered in his faith, and fall from some degree of steadfastness of it; yet not fall so as to be utterly cast down, or finally and totally, and so as to perish eternally. Aben Ezra interprets it, "shall not be moved" into the great deep; into the abyss or bottomless pit; and so some of the ancient Midrashes expound (hbd) of "hell" ^F7; but much better is the Targum,

``I shall not be moved in a day of great affliction;''

see ( Acts 20:23 Acts 20:24 ) ( 1 Thessalonians 3:3 ) .

Salmos 62:2 In-Context

1 Salmo 62
Para Jedutún, director del coro: salmo de David.
Espero en silencio delante de Dios,
porque de él proviene mi victoria.

2 Solo él es mi roca y mi salvación,
mi fortaleza donde jamás seré sacudido.

3 ¡Cuántos enemigos contra un solo hombre!
Todos tratan de matarme.
Para ellos no soy más que una pared derribada
o una valla inestable.

4 Piensan derrocarme de mi alta posición.
Se deleitan en decir mentiras sobre mí.
Cuando están frente a mí, me elogian,
pero en su corazón me maldicen.
Interludio

5 Que todo mi ser espere en silencio delante de Dios,
porque en él está mi esperanza.
