Jehovah is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my rock, in whom I will trust; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.

3 I nvocaré a Jehová, quien es digno de ser alabado, y seré salvo de mis enemigos.

I will call upon Jehovah, who is to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.

The bands of death encompassed me, and torrents of Belial made me afraid.

5 L os lazos del seol me han rodeado, me tendieron redes de muerte.

6 E n mi angustia invoqué a Jehová y clamé a mi Dios. Él oyó mi voz desde su Templo y mi clamor llegó hasta sus oídos.

In my distress I called upon Jehovah, and I cried out to my God; he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, into his ears.

7 L a tierra fue conmovida y tembló; se conmovieron los cimientos de los montes y se estremecieron, porque se indignó él.

Then the earth shook and quaked, and the foundations of the mountains trembled and shook, because he was wroth.

8 H umo subió de su nariz y de su boca fuego consumidor; carbones fueron por él encendidos.

There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals burned forth from it.

9 I nclinó los cielos y descendió, y había densas tinieblas debajo de sus pies.

And he bowed the heavens, and came down; and darkness was under his feet.

10 C abalgó sobre un querubín y voló; voló sobre las alas del viento.

And he rode upon a cherub and did fly; yea, he flew fast upon the wings of the wind.

11 P uso tinieblas por su escondite, por cortina suya a su alrededor; oscuridad de aguas, nubes de los cielos.

He made darkness his secret place, his tent round about him: darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

12 P or el resplandor de su presencia, pasaron sus nubes: granizo y carbones ardientes.

From the brightness before him his thick clouds passed forth: hail and coals of fire.

13 T ronó en los cielos Jehová, el Altísimo dio su voz: granizo y carbones de fuego.

And Jehovah thundered in the heavens, and the Most High uttered his voice: hail and coals of fire.

14 E nvió sus saetas y los dispersó; lanzó relámpagos y los destruyó.

And he sent his arrows, and scattered; and he shot forth lightnings, and discomfited them.

15 E ntonces aparecieron los abismos de las aguas y quedaron al descubierto los cimientos del mundo: a tu reprensión, Jehová, por el soplo del aliento de tu nariz.

And the beds of the waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were uncovered at thy rebuke, Jehovah, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.

16 E nvió desde lo alto y me tomó, me sacó de las muchas aguas.

He reached forth from above, he took me, he drew me out of great waters:

17 M e libró de mi poderoso enemigo y de los que me aborrecían, pues eran más fuertes que yo.

He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them that hated me; for they were mightier than I.

18 M e asaltaron en el día de mi desgracia, pero Jehová fue mi apoyo.

They encountered me in the day of my calamity, but Jehovah was my stay.

19 M e sacó a lugar espacioso; me libró, porque se agradó de mí.

And he brought me forth into a large place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me.

20 J ehová me ha premiado conforme a mi justicia; conforme a la limpieza de mis manos me ha recompensado,

25 C on el misericordioso te mostrarás misericordioso, y recto con el hombre íntegro.

26 L impio te mostrarás con el limpio y severo serás para con el tramposo,

With the pure thou dost shew thyself pure; and with the perverse thou dost shew thyself contrary.

27 p orque tú salvarás al pueblo afligido y humillarás los ojos altivos.

30 E n cuanto a Dios, perfecto es su camino y acrisolada la palabra de Jehová; escudo es a todos los que en él esperan.

As for God, his way is perfect; the word of Jehovah is tried: he is a shield to all that trust in him.

31 ¿ Quién es Dios sino sólo Jehová? ¿Y qué roca hay fuera de nuestro Dios?

32 D ios es el que me reviste de poder y quien hace perfecto mi camino;

The God who girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect,

33 q uien hace mis pies como de venados y me hace estar firme sobre mis alturas;

34 q uien adiestra mis manos para la batalla, para tensar con mis brazos el arco de bronce.

Who teacheth my hands to war, and mine arms bend a bow of brass;

35 M e diste asimismo el escudo de tu salvación; tu diestra me sustentó y tu benignidad me ha engrandecido.

And thou didst give me the shield of thy salvation, and thy right hand held me up; and thy condescending gentleness hath made me great.

36 E nsanchaste mis pasos debajo de mí y mis pies no han resbalado.

Thou didst enlarge my steps under me, and mine ankles have not wavered.

37 P erseguí a mis enemigos y los alcancé; no volví hasta acabarlos.

They cried, and there was none to save;—unto Jehovah, and he answered them not.

42 L os molí como polvo delante del viento; los lancé afuera como a lodo de las calles.
