Psalms 16
1 A writing of David. Keep me, O Lord; for I have hoped in you.
Presérvame, oh Dios, pues me refugio en Ti;
2 I said to the Lord, You are my Lord; for you has no need of my goodness.
dije a Yahvé: “Tú eres mi Señor, no hay bien para mí fuera de Ti”.
3 On behalf of the saints that are in his land, he has magnified all his pleasure in them.
En cuanto a los santos e ilustres de la tierra, no pongo en ellos mi afecto.
4 Their weaknesses have been multiplied; afterward they hasted. I will by no means assemble their bloody meetings, neither will I make mention of their names with my lips.
Multiplican sus dolores los que corren tras falsos dioses; no libaré la sangre de sus ofrendas, ni pronunciaré sus nombres con mis labios.
5 The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: you are he that restores my inheritance to me.
Yahvé es la porción de mi herencia y de mi cáliz; Tú tienes en tus manos mi suerte.
6 The lines have fallen to me in the best places, yes, I have a most excellent heritage.
Las cuerdas (de medir) cayeron para mí en buen lugar, y me tocó una herencia que me encanta.
7 I will bless the Lord who has instructed me; my reins too have chastened me even till night.
Bendeciré a Yahvé, porque me (lo) hizo entender, y aun durante la noche me (lo) enseña mi corazón.
8 I foresaw the Lord always before my face; for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
Tengo siempre a Yahvé ante mis ojos, porque con Él a mi diestra no seré conmovido.
9 Therefore my heart rejoiced an my tongue exulted; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:
Por eso se alegra mi corazón y se regocija mi alma, y aun mi carne descansará segura;
10 because you will not leave my soul in hell, neither will you suffer your Holy One to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
pues Tú no dejarás a mi alma en el sepulcro, ni permitirás que tu santo experimente corrupción. (Sheol h7585)
11 You have made known to me the ways of life; you will fill me with joy with your countenance: at your right hand [there are] delights for ever.
Tú me harás conocer la senda de la vida, la plenitud del gozo a la vista de tu rostro, las eternas delicias de tu diestra.
