1 Escucha, oh Dios, mi oración;no pases por alto mi súplica.
1
Listen to my prayer, O God, do not ignore my plea;
2 ¡Óyeme y respóndeme,porque mis angustias me perturban!Me aterran
2
hear me and answer me. My thoughts trouble me and I am distraught
3 las amenazas del enemigoy la opresión de los impíos,pues me causan sufrimientoy en su enojo me insultan.
3
because of what my enemy is saying, because of the threats of the wicked; for they bring down suffering on me and assail me in their anger.
4 Se me estremece el corazón dentro del pecho,y me invade un pánico mortal.
4
My heart is in anguish within me; the terrors of death have fallen on me.
5 Temblando estoy de miedo,sobrecogido estoy de terror.
5
Fear and trembling have beset me; horror has overwhelmed me.
6 ¡Cómo quisiera tener las alas de una palomay volar hasta encontrar reposo!
6
I said, “Oh, that I had the wings of a dove! I would fly away and be at rest.
7 Me iría muy lejos de aquí;me quedaría a vivir en el desierto. Selah
7
I would flee far away and stay in the desert;
8 Presuroso volaría a mi refugio,para librarme del viento borrascosoy de la tempestad.
8
I would hurry to my place of shelter, far from the tempest and storm.”
9 ¡Destrúyelos, Señor! ¡Confunde su lenguaje!En la ciudad solo veo contiendas y violencia;
9
Lord, confuse the wicked, confound their words, for I see violence and strife in the city.
10 día y noche rondan por sus muros,y dentro de ella hay intrigas y maldad.
10
Day and night they prowl about on its walls; malice and abuse are within it.
11 En su seno hay fuerzas destructivas;de sus calles no se apartan la opresión y el engaño.
11
Destructive forces are at work in the city; threats and lies never leave its streets.
12 Si un enemigo me insultara,yo lo podría soportar;si un adversario me humillara,de él me podría yo esconder.
12
If an enemy were insulting me, I could endure it; if a foe were rising against me, I could hide.
13 Pero lo has hecho tú, un hombre como yo,mi compañero, mi mejor amigo,
13
But it is you, a man like myself, my companion, my close friend,
14 a quien me unía una bella amistad,con quien convivía en la casa de Dios.
14
with whom I once enjoyed sweet fellowship at the house of God, as we walked about among the worshipers.
15 ¡Que sorprenda la muerte a mis enemigos!¡Que caigan vivos al sepulcro,pues en ellos habita la maldad!
15
Let death take my enemies by surprise; let them go down alive to the realm of the dead, for evil finds lodging among them.
16 Pero yo clamaré a Dios,y el SEÑOR me salvará.
16
As for me, I call to God, and the LORD saves me.
17 Mañana, tarde y nocheclamo angustiado, y él me escucha.
17
Evening, morning and noon I cry out in distress, and he hears my voice.
18 Aunque son muchos los que me combaten,él me rescata, me salva la vidaen la batalla que se libra contra mí.
18
He rescues me unharmed from the battle waged against me, even though many oppose me.
19 ¡Dios, que reina para siempre,habrá de oírme y los afligirá! SelahEsa gente no cambia de conducta,no tiene temor de Dios.
19
God, who is enthroned from of old, who does not change— he will hear them and humble them, because they have no fear of God.
20 Levantan la mano contra sus amigosy no cumplen sus compromisos.
20
My companion attacks his friends; he violates his covenant.
21 Su boca es blanda como la manteca,pero sus pensamientos son belicosos.Sus palabras son más suaves que el aceite,pero no son sino espadas desenvainadas.
21
His talk is smooth as butter, yet war is in his heart; his words are more soothing than oil, yet they are drawn swords.
22 Encomienda al SEÑOR tus afanes,y él te sostendrá;no permitirá que el justo caigay quede abatido para siempre.
22
Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.
23 Tú, oh Dios, abatirás a los impíosy los arrojarás en la fosa de la muerte;la gente sanguinaria y mentirosano llegará ni a la mitad de su vida.Yo, por mi parte, en ti confío.
23
But you, God, will bring down the wicked into the pit of decay; the bloodthirsty and deceitful will not live out half their days. But as for me, I trust in you.
