1 T e ensalzaré, oh Señor, porque me has elevado, y no has permitido que mis enemigos se rían de mí.

I will extol You, O Lord, for You have lifted me up, And have not let my foes rejoice over me.

2 O h Señor, Dios mío, a ti pedí auxilio y me sanaste.

O Lord my God, I cried out to You, And You healed me.

3 O h Señor, has sacado mi alma del Seol; me has guardado con vida, para que no descienda al sepulcro.

O Lord, You brought my soul up from the grave; You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

4 C antad alabanzas al Señor, vosotros sus santos, y alabad su santo nombre.

Sing praise to the Lord, you saints of His, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name.

5 P orque su ira es sólo por un momento, pero su favor es por toda una vida; el llanto puede durar toda la noche, pero a la mañana vendrá el grito de alegría.

For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning.

6 Y en mi prosperidad yo dije: Jamás seré conmovido.

Now in my prosperity I said, “I shall never be moved.”

7 O h Señor, con tu favor has hecho que mi monte permanezca fuerte; tú escondiste tu rostro, fui conturbado.

Lord, by Your favor You have made my mountain stand strong; You hid Your face, and I was troubled.

8 A ti, oh Señor, clamé, y al Señor dirigí mi súplica:

I cried out to You, O Lord; And to the Lord I made supplication:

9 ¿ Qué provecho hay en mi sangre si desciendo al sepulcro ? ¿ Acaso te alabará el polvo ? ¿Anunciará tu fidelidad ?

“What profit is there in my blood, When I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your truth?

10 E scucha, oh Señor, y ten piedad de mí; oh Señor, sé tú mi socorro.

Hear, O Lord, and have mercy on me; Lord, be my helper!”

11 T ú has cambiado mi lamento en danza; has desatado mi cilicio y me has ceñido de alegría;

You have turned for me my mourning into dancing; You have put off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness,

12 p ara que mi alma te cante alabanzas y no esté callada. Oh Señor, Dios mío, te alabaré por siempre.

To the end that my glory may sing praise to You and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
