1Hear, LORD, my righteous plea. Give ear to my prayer that doesn’t go out of deceitful lips.
1Oración de David. OYE, oh Jehová, justicia; está atento á mi clamor; escucha mi oración hecha sin labios de engaño.
2Let my sentence come out of your presence. Let your eyes look on equity.
2De delante de tu rostro salga mi juicio; vean tus ojos la rectitud.
3You have proved my heart. You have visited me in the night. You have tried me, and found nothing. I have resolved that my mouth shall not disobey.
3Tú has probado mi corazón, hasme visitado de noche; me has apurado, y nada inicuo hallaste: heme propuesto que mi boca no ha de propasarse.
4As for the deeds of men, by the word of your lips, I have kept myself from the ways of the violent.
4Para las obras humanas, por la palabra de tus labios yo me he guardado de las vías del destructor.
5My steps have held fast to your paths. My feet have not slipped.
5Sustenta mis pasos en tus caminos, porque mis pies no resbalen.
6I have called on you, for you will answer me, God. Turn your ear to me. Hear my speech.
6Yo te he invocado, por cuanto tú me oirás, oh Dios: inclina á mí tu oído, escucha mi palabra.
7Show your marvelous loving kindness, you who save those who take refuge by your right hand from their enemies.
7Muestra tus estupendas misericordias, tú que salvas á los que en ti confían de los que se levantan contra tu diestra.
8Keep me as the apple of your eye. Hide me under the shadow of your wings,
8Guárdame como lo negro de la niñeta del ojo, escóndeme con la sombra de tus alas,
9from the wicked who oppress me, my deadly enemies, who surround me.
9De delante de los malos que me oprimen, de mis enemigos que me cercan por la vida.
10They close up their callous hearts. With their mouth they speak proudly.
10Cerrados están con su grosura; con su boca hablan soberbiamente.
11They have now surrounded us in our steps. They set their eyes to cast us down to the earth.
11Nuestros pasos nos han cercado ahora: puestos tienen sus ojos para echar nos por tierra.
12He is like a lion that is greedy of his prey, as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
12Parecen al león que desea hacer presa, y al leoncillo que está escondido.
13Arise, LORD, confront him. Cast him down. Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword,
13Levántate, oh Jehová; prevén su encuentro, póstrale: libra mi alma del malo con tu espada;
14from men by your hand, LORD, from men of the world, whose portion is in this life. You fill the belly of your cherished ones. Your sons have plenty, and they store up wealth for their children.
14De los hombres con tu mano, oh Jehová, de los hombres de mundo, cuya parte es en esta vida, y cuyo vientre hinches de tu tesoro: hartan sus hijos, y dejan el resto á sus chiquitos.
15As for me, I shall see your face in righteousness. I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with seeing your form.
15Yo en justicia veré tu rostro: seré saciado cuando despertare á tu semejanza.
