< Psalms 91 >

1 Happy is he whose resting-place is in the secret of the Lord, and under the shade of the wings of the Most High;
El que habita en el escondedero del Altísimo, morará bajo la sombra del Omnipotente.
2 Who says of the Lord, He is my safe place and my tower of strength: he is my God, in whom is my hope.
Dirá al SEÑOR: Esperanza mía, y castillo mío; mi Dios, me aseguraré en él.
3 He will take you out of the bird-net, and keep you safe from wasting disease.
Y él te librará del lazo del cazador; de la mortandad que todo asuela.
4 You will be covered by his feathers; under his wings you will be safe: his good faith will be your salvation.
Con su ala te cubrirá, y debajo de sus alas estarás seguro; escudo y adarga es su verdad.
5 You will have no fear of the evil things of the night, or of the arrow in flight by day,
No tendrás temor de espanto nocturno, ni de saeta que vuele de día;
6 Or of the disease which takes men in the dark, or of the destruction which makes waste when the sun is high.
ni de pestilencia que ande en oscuridad, ni de mortandad que destruya al mediodía.
7 You will see a thousand falling by your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you.
Caerán a tu lado mil, y diez mil a tu diestra; pero a ti no llegará.
8 Only with your eyes will you see the reward of the evil-doers.
Ciertamente con tus ojos mirarás, y verás la recompensa de los impíos.
9 Because you have said, I am in the hands of the Lord, the Most High is my safe resting-place;
Porque tú, oh SEÑOR, eres mi esperanza; y al Altísimo has puesto por tu habitación,
10 No evil will come on you, and no disease will come near your tent.
no se ordenará para ti mal, ni plaga tocará tu morada.
11 For he will give you into the care of his angels to keep you wherever you go.
Porque a sus ángeles mandará acerca de ti, que te guarden en todos tus caminos.
12 In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone.
En las manos te llevarán, para que tu pie no tropiece en piedra.
13 You will put your foot on the lion and the snake; the young lion and the great snake will be crushed under your feet.
Sobre el león y el basilisco pisarás; hollarás al cachorro del león, y al dragón.
14 Because he has given me his love, I will take him out of danger: I will put him in a place of honour, because he has kept my name in his heart.
Por cuanto en mí ha puesto su voluntad, yo también lo libraré; lo pondré en alto, por cuanto ha conocido mi Nombre.
15 When his cry comes up to me, I will give him an answer: I will be with him in trouble; I will make him free from danger and give him honour.
Me invocará, y yo le responderé; con él estaré yo en la angustia; lo libraré, y le glorificaré.
16 With long life will he be rewarded; and I will let him see my salvation.
Lo saciaré de larga vida, y le mostraré mi salud.
