- 1
In you, LORD, I take refuge. Never let me be disappointed.
- 2
Deliver me in your righteousness, and rescue me. Turn your ear to me, and save me.
- 3
Be to me a rock of refuge to which I may always go. Give the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.
- 4
Rescue me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
- 5
For you are my hope, Lord GOD, my confidence from my youth.
- 6
I have relied on you from the womb. You are he who took me out of my mother’s womb. I will always praise you.
- 7
I am a marvel to many, but you are my strong refuge.
- 8
My mouth shall be filled with your praise, with your honor all day long.
- 9
Don’t reject me in my old age. Don’t forsake me when my strength fails.
- 10
For my enemies talk about me. Those who watch for my soul conspire together,
- 11
saying, “God has forsaken him. Pursue and take him, for no one will rescue him.”
- 12
God, don’t be far from me. My God, hurry to help me.
- 13
Let my accusers be disappointed and consumed. Let them be covered with disgrace and scorn who want to harm me.
- 14
But I will always hope, and will add to all of your praise.
- 15
My mouth will tell about your righteousness, and of your salvation all day, though I don’t know its full measure.
- 16
I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord GOD. I will make mention of your righteousness, even of yours alone.
- 17
God, you have taught me from my youth. Until now, I have declared your wondrous works.
- 18
Yes, even when I am old and gray-haired, God, don’t forsake me, until I have declared your strength to the next generation, your might to everyone who is to come.
- 19
God, your righteousness also reaches to the heavens. You have done great things. God, who is like you?
- 20
You, who have shown us many and bitter troubles, you will let me live. You will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.
- 21
Increase my honor and comfort me again.
- 22
I will also praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, my God. I sing praises to you with the lyre, Holy One of Israel.
- 23
My lips shall shout for joy! My soul, which you have redeemed, sings praises to you!
- 24
My tongue will also talk about your righteousness all day long, for they are disappointed, and they are confounded, who want to harm me.
- 1
EN ti, oh Jehová, he esperado; no sea yo confuso para siempre.
- 2
Hazme escapar, y líbrame en tu justicia: inclina tu oído y sálvame.
- 3
Séme por peña de estancia, adonde recurra yo continuamente: mandado has que yo sea salvo; porque tú eres mi roca, y mi fortaleza.
- 4
Dios mío, líbrame de la mano del impío, de la mano del perverso y violento.
- 5
Porque tú, oh Señor Jehová, eres mi esperanza: seguridad mía desde mi juventud.
- 6
Por ti he sido sustentado desde el vientre: de las entrañas de mi madre tú fuiste el que me sacaste: de ti será siempre mi alabanza.
- 7
Como prodigio he sido á muchos; y tú mi refugio fuerte.
- 8
Sea llena mi boca de tu alabanza, de tu gloria todo el día.
- 9
No me deseches en el tiempo de la vejez; cuando mi fuerza se acabare, no me desampares.
- 10
Porque mis enemigos han tratado de mí; y los que acechan mi alma, consultaron juntamente,
- 11
Diciendo: Dios lo ha dejado: perseguid y tomadle, porque no hay quien le libre.
- 12
Oh Dios, no te alejes de mí: Dios mío, acude presto á mi socorro.
- 13
Sean avergonzados, fallezcan los adversarios de mi alma; sean cubiertos de vergüenza y de confusión los que mi mal buscan.
- 14
Mas yo siempre esperaré, y añadiré sobre toda tu alabanza.
- 15
Mi boca publicará tu justicia y tu salud todo el día, aunque no sé el número de ellas .
- 16
Vendré á las valentías del Señor Jehová: haré memoria de sola tu justicia.
- 17
Oh Dios, enseñásteme desde mi mocedad; y hasta ahora he manifestado tus maravillas.
- 18
Y aun hasta la vejez y las canas; oh Dios, no me desampares, hasta que denuncie tu brazo á la posteridad, tus valentías á todos los que han de venir.
- 19
Y tu justicia, oh Dios, hasta lo excelso; porque has hecho grandes cosas: oh Dios, ¿quién como tú?
- 20
Tú, que me has hecho ver muchas angustias y males, volverás á darme vida, y de nuevo me levantarás de los abismos de la tierra.
- 21
Aumentarás mi grandeza, y volverás á consolarme.
- 22
Asimismo yo te alabaré con instrumento de salterio, oh Dios mío: tu verdad cantaré yo á ti en el arpa, oh Santo de Israel.
- 23
Mis labios cantarán cuando á ti salmeare, y mi alma, á la cual redimiste.
- 24
Mi lengua hablará también de tu justicia todo el día: por cuanto fueron avergonzados, porque fueron confusos los que mi mal procuraban.
