1 A l Músico principal: sobre La paloma silenciosa en paraje muy distante. Michtam de David, cuando los Filisteos le prendieron en Gath. TEN misericordia de mí, oh Dios, porque me devoraría el hombre: Me oprime combatiéndome cada día.

Show me Your loving-kindness, O God, for man has walked on me. All day long the one who tries to keep me down fights with me.

2 A púranme mis enemigos cada día; Porque muchos son los que pelean contra mí, oh Altísimo.

All day long those who hate me have walked on me. For there are many who fight against me with pride.

3 E n el día que temo, Yo en ti confío.

When I am afraid, I will trust in You.

4 E n Dios alabaré su palabra: En Dios he confiado, no temeré Lo que la carne me hiciere.

I praise the Word of God. I have put my trust in God. I will not be afraid. What can only a man do to me?

5 T odos los días me contristan mis negocios; Contra mí son todos sus pensamientos para mal.

All day long they change my words to say what I did not say. They are always thinking of ways to hurt me.

6 R eúnense, escóndense, Miran ellos atentamente mis pasos, Esperando mi vida.

They go after me as in a fight. They hide themselves. They watch my steps, as they have waited to take my life.

7 ¿ Escaparán ellos por la iniquidad? Oh Dios, derriba en tu furor los pueblos.

Because they are bad, do not let them get away. Bring down the people in Your anger, O God.

8 M is huídas has tú contado: Pon mis lágrimas en tu redoma: ¿No están ellas en tu libro?

You have seen how many places I have gone. Put my tears in Your bottle. Are they not in Your book?

9 S erán luego vueltos atrás mis enemigos el día que yo clamare: En esto conozco que Dios es por mí.

Then those who hate me will turn back when I call. I know that God is for me.

10 E n Dios alabaré su palabra; En Jehová alabaré su palabra.

I praise the Word of God. I praise the Word of the Lord.

11 E n Dios he confiado: no temeré Lo que me hará el hombre.

In God I have put my trust. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?

12 S obre mí, oh Dios, están tus votos: Te tributaré alabanzas.

I am under an agreement with You, O God. I will give You gifts of thanks.

13 P orque has librado mi vida de la muerte, Y mis pies de caída, Para que ande delante de Dios En la luz de los que viven.

For You have set my soul free from death. You have kept my feet from falling, so I may walk with God in the light of life.
