2 Samuel 22:16-30

Listen to 2 Samuel 22:16-30
16 Entonces aparecieron los manantiales de la mar, Y los fundamentos del mundo fueron descubiertos, A la reprensión de Jehová, Al resoplido del aliento de su nariz.
17 Extendió su mano de lo alto, y arrebatóme, Y sacóme de copiosas aguas.
18 Libróme de fuertes enemigos, De aquellos que me aborrecían, los cuales eran más fuertes que yo.
19 Asaltáronme en el día de mi calamidad; Mas Jehová fué mi sostén.
20 Sacóme á anchura; Libróme, porque puso su voluntad en mí.
21 Remuneróme Jehová conforme á mi justicia: Y conforme á la limpieza de mis manos, me dió la paga.
22 Porque yo guardé los caminos de Jehová; Y no me aparté impíamente de mi Dios.
23 Porque delante de mí tengo todas sus ordenanzas; Y atento á sus fueros, no me retiraré de ellos.
24 Y fuí íntegro para con él, Y guardéme de mi iniquidad.
25 Remuneróme por tanto Jehová conforme á mi justicia, Y conforme á mi limpieza delante de sus ojos.
26 Con el bueno eres benigno, Y con el íntegro te muestras íntegro;
27 Limpio eres para con el limpio, Mas con el perverso eres rígido.
28 Y tú salvas al pueblo humilde; Mas tus ojos sobre los altivos, para abatirlos.
29 Porque tú eres mi lámpara, oh Jehová: Jehová da luz á mis tinieblas.
30 Porque en ti romperé ejércitos, Y con mi Dios saltaré las murallas.

2 Samuel 22:16-30 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO SECOND SAMUEL 22

This chapter contains a song or psalm, the same with the eighteenth psalm, and which, according to Jarchi, was composed by David in his old age, and, as Kimchi says, at the end or close of his days; but Abarbinel is of opinion that it was written in his youthful time, in the midst of his troubles, and was sung by him as often as he had a deliverance from any; and which may account for the several variations in it from the eighteenth psalm, which, the same writer observes, are seventy four; and are not to be ascribed to the difference of copies, or neglect of copiers: and very probably, towards the close of his days, he revised it, and made it fit for general use, and sent it with the rest of his psalms to the chief musician; but the particular consideration of it, and of the differences in it from Ps 18:1-50 are referred to the exposition of that book in its course.
