The Bible in Basic English BBE
1 ¿POR qué estás lejos, oh Jehová, Y te escondes en el tiempo de la tribulación?
1
Why do you keep far away, O Lord? why are you not to be seen in times of trouble?
2 Con arrogancia el malo persigue al pobre: Serán cogidos en los artificios que han ideado.
2
The evil-doer in his pride is cruel to the poor; let him be taken by the tricks of his invention.
3 Por cuanto se alaba el malo del deseo de su alma, Y bendice al codicioso ó quien Jehová aborrece.
3
For the evil-doer is lifted up because of the purpose of his heart, and he whose mind is fixed on wealth is turned away from the Lord, saying evil against him.
4 El malo, por la altivez de su rostro, no busca á Dios: No hay Dios en todos sus pensamientos.
4
The evil-doer in his pride says, God will not make a search. All his thoughts are, There is no God.
5 Sus caminos son viciosos en todo tiempo: Tus juicios los tiene muy lejos de su vista: Echa bocanadas en orden á todos sus enemigos.
5
His ways are ever fixed; your decisions are higher than he may see: as for his haters, they are as nothing to him.
6 Dice en su corazón: No seré movido en ningún tiempo, Ni jamás me alcanzará el infortunio.
6
He has said in his heart, I will not be moved: through all generations I will never be in trouble.
7 Llena está su boca de maldición, y de engaños y fraude: Debajo de su lengua, vejación y maldad.
7
His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and false words: under his tongue are evil purposes and dark thoughts.
8 Está en las guaridas de las aldeas: En los escondrijos mata al inocente: Sus ojos están acechando al pobre.
8
He is waiting in the dark places of the towns: in the secret places he puts to death those who have done no wrong: his eyes are secretly turned against the poor.
9 Acecha en oculto, como el león desde su cama: Acecha para arrebatar al pobre: Arrebata al pobre trayéndolo á su red.
9
He keeps himself in a secret place like a lion in his hole, waiting to put his hands on the poor man, and pulling him into his net.
10 Encógese, agáchase, Y caen en sus fuerzas muchos desdichados.
10
The upright are crushed and made low, and the feeble are overcome by his strong ones.
11 Dice en su corazón: Dios está olvidado, Ha encubierto su rostro; nunca lo verá.
11
He says in his heart, God has no memory of me: his face is turned away; he will never see it.
12 Levántate, oh Jehová Dios, alza tu mano, No te olvides de los pobres.
12
Up! O Lord; let your hand be lifted: give thought to the poor.
13 ¿Por qué irrita el malo á Dios? En su corazón ha dicho que no lo inquirirás.
13
Why has the evil-doer a low opinion of God, saying in his heart, You will not make search for it?
14 Tú lo tienes visto: porque tú miras el trabajo, y la vejación, para vengar le por tu mano: A ti se acoge el pobre, Tú eres el amparo del huérfano.
14
You have seen it; for your eyes are on sorrow and grief, to take it into your hand: the poor man puts his faith in you; you have been the helper of the child who has no father.
15 Quebranta el brazo del malo: Del maligno buscarás su maldad, hasta que ninguna halles.
15
Let the arm of the sinner and the evil-doer be broken; go on searching for his sin till there is no more.
16 Jehová, Rey eterno y perpetuo: De su tierra fueron destruídas las gentes.
16
The Lord is King for ever and ever; the nations are gone from his land.
17 El deseo de los humildes oíste, oh Jehová: Tú dispones su corazón, y haces atento tu oído;
17
Lord, you have given ear to the prayer of the poor: you will make strong their hearts, you will give them a hearing:
18 Para juzgar al huérfano y al pobre, A fin de que no vuelva más á hacer violencia el hombre de la tierra.
18
To give decision for the child without a father and for the broken-hearted, so that the man of the earth may no longer be feared.
