1 H e who lives in the safe place of the Most High will be in the shadow of the All-powerful.

El que habita al abrigo del Altísimo morará bajo la sombra del Omnipotente.

2 I will say to the Lord, “You are my safe and strong place, my God, in Whom I trust.”

Diré yo a Jehová: «Esperanza mía y castillo mío; mi Dios, en quien confiaré.»

3 F or it is He Who takes you away from the trap, and from the killing sickness.

Él te librará del lazo del cazador, de la peste destructora.

4 H e will cover you with His wings. And under His wings you will be safe. He is faithful like a safe-covering and a strong wall.

Con sus plumas te cubrirá y debajo de sus alas estarás seguro; escudo y protección es su verdad.

5 Y ou will not be afraid of trouble at night, or of the arrow that flies by day.

No temerás al terror nocturno ni a la saeta que vuele de día,

6 Y ou will not be afraid of the sickness that walks in darkness, or of the trouble that destroys at noon.

ni a la pestilencia que ande en la oscuridad, ni a mortandad que en medio del día destruya.

7 A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand. But it will not come near you.

Caerán a tu lado mil y diez mil a tu diestra; mas a ti no llegarán.

8 Y ou will only look on with your eyes, and see how the sinful are punished.

Ciertamente con tus ojos mirarás y verás la recompensa de los impíos.

9 B ecause you have made the Lord your safe place, and the Most High the place where you live,

Porque has puesto a Jehová, que es mi esperanza, al Altísimo por tu habitación,

10 n othing will hurt you. No trouble will come near your tent.

no te sobrevendrá mal ni plaga tocará tu morada,

11 F or He will tell His angels to care for you and keep you in all your ways.

pues a sus ángeles mandará acerca de ti, que te guarden en todos tus caminos.

12 T hey will hold you up in their hands. So your foot will not hit against a stone.

En las manos te llevarán para que tu pie no tropiece en piedra.

13 Y ou will walk upon the lion and the snake. You will crush under your feet the young lion and the snake.

Sobre el león y la víbora pisarás; herirás al cachorro del león y al dragón.

14 B ecause he has loved Me, I will bring him out of trouble. I will set him in a safe place on high, because he has known My name.

«Por cuanto en mí ha puesto su amor, yo también lo libraré; lo pondré en alto, por cuanto ha conocido mi nombre.

15 H e will call upon Me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will take him out of trouble and honor him.

Me invocará y yo le responderé; con él estaré yo en la angustia; lo libraré y lo glorificaré.

16 I will please him with a long life. And I will show him My saving power.

Lo saciaré de larga vida y le mostraré mi salvación.»
