1 C uídame, oh Dios, porque en ti confío.

Keep me, O God, for I am safe in You.

2 Y o declaro, Señor, que tú eres mi dueño; que sin ti no tengo ningún bien.

I said to the Lord, “You are my Lord. All the good things I have come from You.”

3 P oderosos son los dioses del país, según todos los que en ellos se complacen.

As for those in the land who belong to You, they are the great ones in whom is all my joy.

4 ¡ Pero grandes dolores esperan a sus seguidores! ¡Jamás derramaré ante ellos ofrendas de sangre, ni mis labios pronunciarán sus nombres!

Those who have traded for another god bring many troubles on themselves. I will not take part in their altar gifts of blood. And I will not take their names upon my lips.

5 T ú, Señor, eres mi copa y mi herencia; tú eres quien me sostiene.

The Lord is all that I am to receive, and my cup. My future is in Your hands.

6 P or suerte recibí una bella herencia; hermosa es la heredad que me asignaste.

The land given to me is good. Yes, my share is beautiful to me.

7 P or eso te bendigo, Señor, pues siempre me aconsejas, y aun de noche me reprendes.

I will give honor and thanks to the Lord, Who has told me what to do. Yes, even at night my mind teaches me.

8 T odo el tiempo pienso en ti, Señor; contigo a mi derecha, jamás caeré.

I have placed the Lord always in front of me. Because He is at my right hand, I will not be moved.

9 G ran regocijo hay en mi corazón y en mi alma; todo mi ser siente una gran confianza,

And so my heart is glad. My soul is full of joy. My body also will rest without fear.

10 p orque no me abandonarás en el sepulcro, ¡no dejarás que sufra corrupción quien te es fiel.

For You will not give me over to the grave. And You will not allow Your Holy One to return to dust.

11 T ú me enseñas el camino de la vida; con tu presencia me llenas de alegría; ¡estando a tu lado seré siempre dichoso!

You will show me the way of life. Being with You is to be full of joy. In Your right hand there is happiness forever.
