Sing aloud to God our Strength! Shout for joy to the God of Jacob!

2 T omad la canción, y tañed el adufe, El arpa deliciosa con el salterio.

Raise a song, sound the timbrel, the sweet lyre with the harp.

3 T ocad la trompeta en la nueva luna, En el día señalado, en el día de nuestra solemnidad.

Blow the trumpet at the New Moon, at the full moon, on our feast day.

4 P orque estatuto es de Israel, Ordenanza del Dios de Jacob.

For this is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.

5 P or testimonio en José lo ha constituído, Cuando salió por la tierra de Egipto; Donde oí lenguaje que no entendía.

This He ordained in Joseph '> savior] for a testimony when He went out over the land of Egypt. The speech of One Whom I knew not did I hear,

6 A parté su hombro de debajo de la carga; Sus manos se quitaron de vasijas de barro.

I removed his shoulder from the burden; his hands were freed from the basket.

7 E n la calamidad clamaste, y yo te libré: Te respondí en el secreto del trueno; Te probé sobre las aguas de Meriba. (Selah.)

You called in distress and I delivered you; I answered you in the secret place of thunder; I tested you at the waters of Meribah. Selah!

8 O ye, pueblo mío y te protestaré. Israel, si me oyeres,

Hear, O My people, and I will admonish you—O Israel, if you would listen to Me!

9 N o habrá en ti dios ajeno, Ni te encorvarás á dios extraño.

There shall no strange god be among you, neither shall you worship any alien god.

10 Y o soy Jehová tu Dios, Que te hice subir de la tierra de Egipto: Ensancha tu boca, y henchirla he.

I am the Lord your God, Who brought you up out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide and I will fill it.

11 M as mi pueblo no oyó mi voz, E Israel no me quiso á mí.

But My people would not hearken to My voice, and Israel would have none of Me.

12 D ejélos por tanto á la dureza de su corazón: Caminaron en sus consejos.

So I gave them up to their own hearts’ lust and let them go after their own stubborn will, that they might follow their own counsels.

13 O h, si me hubiera oído mi pueblo, Si en mis caminos hubiera Israel andado!

Oh, that My people would listen to Me, that Israel would walk in My ways!

14 E n una nada habría yo derribado sus enemigos, Y vuelto mi mano sobre sus adversarios.

Speedily then I would subdue their enemies and turn My hand against their adversaries.

15 L os aborrecedores de Jehová se le hubieran sometido; Y el tiempo de ellos fuera para siempre.

those who hated the Lord would have come cringing before Him, and their defeat would have lasted forever.

16 Y Dios lo hubiera mantenido de grosura de trigo: Y de miel de la piedra te hubiera saciado.

would feed also with the finest of the wheat; and with honey out of the rock would I satisfy you.
