Psalms 56

1 To the chief music-maker; put to Jonath elem rehokim. Of David. Michtam. When the Philistines took him in Gath. Have mercy on me, O God, for man is attempting my destruction; every day he makes cruel attacks against me.

Ten piedad de mí, oh Dios, porque el hombre está intentando destruirme; todos los días hace crueles ataques en mi contra.

2 My haters are ever ready to put an end to me; great numbers are lifting themselves up against me.

Mis enemigos están siempre listos para darme fin; muchos son los que me atacan con altanería.

3 In the time of my fear, I will have faith in you.

En el tiempo de mi temor, confío en ti.

4 In God will I give praise to his word; in God have I put my hope; I will have no fear of what flesh may do to me.

En Dios daré alabanza a su palabra; en Dios he puesto mi esperanza; No tendré miedo; qué puede hacerme el hombre?

5 Every day they make wrong use of my words; all their thoughts are against me for evil.

Todos los días me hieren con palabras; todos sus pensamientos están en mi contra para mal.

6 They come together, they are waiting in secret places, they take note of my steps, they are waiting for my soul.

Se juntan, esperan en lugares secretos, toman nota de mis pasos, esperando el momento de matarme.

7 By evil-doing they will not get free from punishment. In wrath, O God, let the peoples be made low.

Por su propia maldad no se librarán del castigo. En tu ira, oh Dios, que los pueblos sean humillados.

8 You have seen my wanderings; put the drops from my eyes into your bottle; are they not in your record?

Tu llevas en cuenta mis huidas; tú recoges cada una de mis lágrimas; ¿no están en tu registro?

9 When I send up my cry to you, my haters will be turned back; I am certain of this, for God is with me.

Cuando envío mi clamor a ti, mis enemigos serán vueltos atrás; Estoy seguro de esto, porque Dios está conmigo.

10 In God will I give praise to his word; in the Lord will I give praise to his word.

En Dios daré alabanza a su palabra; en el Señor daré alabanza a su palabra.

11 In God have I put my hope, I will have no fear of what man may do to me.

En Dios he puesto mi esperanza, no tendré temor; que puede hacerme el hombre?

12 I keep the memory of my debt to you, O God; I will give you the offerings of praise.

Guardo el recuerdo de mi deuda contigo, oh Dios; Te daré las ofrendas de alabanza.

13 Because you have taken my soul from the power of death; and kept my feet from falling, so that I may be walking before God in the light of life.

Porque has librado mi alma del poder de la muerte; y que mis pies cayeran, para poder estar caminando delante de Dios en la luz de la vida.
