1Unto the end, a psalm for David himself.
1Al Músico principal, á Jeduthún: Salmo de David. YO DIJE: Atenderé á mis caminos, para no pecar con mi lengua: guardaré mi boca con freno, en tanto que el impío fuere contra mí.
2With expectation I have waited for the Lord, and he was attentive to me.
2Enmudecí con silencio, calléme aun respecto de lo bueno: y excitóse mi dolor.
3And he heard my prayers, and brought me out of the pit of misery and the mire of dregs. And he set my feet upon a rock, and directed my steps.
3Enardecióse mi corazón dentro de mí; encendióse fuego en mi meditación, y así proferí con mi lengua:
4And he put a new canticle into my mouth, a song to our God. Many shall see, and shall fear: and they shall hope in the Lord.
4Hazme saber, Jehová, mi fin, y cuánta sea la medida de mis días; sepa yo cuánto tengo de ser del mundo.
5Blessed is the man whose trust is in the name of the Lord; and who hath not had regard to vanities, and lying follies.
5He aquí diste á mis días término corto, y mi edad es como nada delante de ti: ciertamente es completa vanidad todo hombre que vive. (Selah.)
6Thou hast multiplied thy wonderful works, O Lord my God: and in thy thoughts there is no one like to thee. I have declared and I have spoken they are multiplied above number.
6Ciertamente en tinieblas anda el hombre; ciertamente en vano se inquieta: junta, y no sabe quién lo allegará.
7Sacrifice and oblation thou didst not desire; but thou hast pierced ears for me. Burnt offering and sin offering thou didst not require:
7Y ahora, Señor, ¿qué esperaré? Mi esperanza en ti está.
8Then said I, Behold I come. In the head of the book it is written of me
8Líbrame de todas mis rebeliones; no me pongas por escarnio del insensato.
9That I should do thy will: O my God, I have desired it, and thy law in the midst of my heart.
9Enmudecí, no abrí mi boca; porque tú lo hiciste.
10I have declared thy justice in a great church, lo, I will not restrain my lips: O Lord, thou knowest it.
10Quita de sobre mí tu plaga; de la guerra de tu mano soy consumido.
11I have not hid thy justice within my heart: I have declared thy truth and thy salvation. I have not concealed thy mercy and thy truth from a great council.
11Con castigos sobre el pecado corriges al hombre, y haces consumirse como de polilla su grandeza: ciertamente vanidad es todo hombre. (Selah.)
12Withhold not thou, O Lord, thy tender mercies from me: thy mercy and thy truth have always upheld me.
12Oye mi oración, oh Jehová, y escucha mi clamor: no calles á mis lágrimas; porque peregrino soy para contigo, y advenedizo, como todos mis padres.
13For evils without number have surrounded me; my iniquities have overtaken me, and I was not able to see. They are multiplied above the hairs of my head: and my heart hath forsaken me.
13Déjame, y tomaré fuerzas, antes que vaya y perezca.
14Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me, look down, O Lord, to help me.
