Psalms 9
1 To the chief music-maker on Muthlabben. A Psalm. Of David. I will give you praise, O Lord, with all my heart; I will make clear all the wonder of your works.
Al maestro de coro. Sobre el tono de Muthlabbén. Salmo de David. Quiero alabarte, Yahvé, con todo mi corazón, voy a cantar todas tus maravillas.
2 I will be glad and have delight in you: I will make a song of praise to your name, O Most High.
En Ti me alegraré y saltaré de gozo, cantaré salmos a tu Nombre, oh Altísimo.
3 When my haters are turned back, they will be broken and overcome before you.
Porque mis enemigos vuelven las espaldas, caen y perecen ante tu presencia.
4 For you gave approval to my right and my cause; you were seated in your high place judging in righteousness.
He aquí que Tú me has hecho justicia, y has tomado en tus manos mi causa; te has sentado, Juez justo, sobre el trono.
5 You have said sharp words to the nations, you have sent destruction on the sinners, you have put an end to their name for ever and ever.
Has reprendido a los gentiles y aniquilado al impío, borrado su nombre para siempre.
6 You have given their towns to destruction; the memory of them has gone; they have become waste for ever.
Los enemigos han sido aplastados, reducidos a perpetua ruina; has destruido sus ciudades, y hasta la memoria de ellas ha perecido.
7 But the Lord is King for ever: he has made ready his high seat for judging.
He aquí que Yahvé se sienta para siempre, ha establecido su trono para juzgar.
8 And he will be the judge of the world in righteousness, giving true decisions for the peoples.
Él mismo juzgará el orbe con justicia, y gobernará a los pueblos con equidad.
9 The Lord will be a high tower for those who are crushed down, a high tower in times of trouble;
Y será Yahvé refugio para el oprimido, refugio siempre pronto en el tiempo de la tribulación.
10 And those who have knowledge of your name will put their faith in you; because you, Lord, have ever given your help to those who were waiting for you.
Y los que conocieron tu nombre confiarán en Ti, pues Tú no abandonas, Yahvé, a los que te buscan.
11 Make songs of praise to the Lord, whose house is in Zion: make his doings clear to the people.
Cantad salmos a Yahvé, que habita en Sión, haced conocer a los pueblos sus proezas.
12 When he makes search for blood, he has them in his memory: he is not without thought for the cry of the poor.
Porque el vengador de la sangre se ha acordado de los pobres, y no ha olvidado su clamor.
13 Have mercy on me, O Lord, and see how I am troubled by my haters; let me be lifted up from the doors of death;
Yahvé se apiadó de mí viendo la aflicción que me causan mis enemigos, y me ha sacado de los umbrales de la muerte,
14 So that I may make clear all your praise in the house of the daughter of Zion: I will be glad because of your salvation.
para que anuncie todas sus alabanzas en las puertas de la hija de Sión, y me goce yo en tu salud.
15 The nations have gone down into the hole which they made: in their secret net is their foot taken.
Cayeron las naciones en la fosa que cavaron, su pie quedó preso en el lazo que escondieron.
16 The Lord has given knowledge of himself through his judging: the evil-doer is taken in the net which his hands had made. (Higgaion, Selah)
Yahvé se ha dado a conocer haciendo justicia; el pecador quedó enredado en las obras de sus manos.
17 The sinners and all the nations who have no memory of God will be turned into the underworld. (Sheol h7585)
Bajen los malvados al sepulcro, todos los gentiles que se han olvidado de Dios. (Sheol h7585)
18 For the poor will not be without help; the hopes of those in need will not be crushed for ever.
Porque no siempre quedará en olvido el pobre, ni siempre burlada la esperanza de los oprimidos.
19 Up! O Lord; let not man overcome you: let the nations be judged before you.
Levántate Yahvé; no prevalezca el hombre, sean juzgadas las naciones ante tu presencia.
20 Put them in fear, O Lord, so that the nations may see that they are only men. (Selah)
Arroja, Señor, sobre ellas el terror, oh Yahvé, ¡que sepan los gentiles que son hombres!
