Psalms 41
1 For the end, a Psalm of David. Blessed [is the man] who thinks, on the poor and needy: the Lord shall deliver him in an evil day.
Al Vencedor: Salmo de David. Bienaventurado el que entiende sobre el pobre; en el día malo lo librará el SEÑOR.
2 May the Lord preserve him and keep him alive, and bless him on the earth, and not deliver him into the hands of his enemy.
El SEÑOR lo guarde, y le dé vida: sea bienaventurado en la tierra, y no lo entregues a la voluntad de sus enemigos.
3 May the Lord help him upon the bed of his pain; you have made all his bed in his sickness.
El SEÑOR lo sustentará sobre el lecho del dolor; mullirás toda su cama en su enfermedad.
4 I said, O Lord, have mercy upon me; heal my soul; for I have sinned against you.
Yo dije: SEÑOR, ten misericordia de mí; sana mi alma, porque contra ti he pecado.
5 Mine enemies have spoken evil against me, [saying], When shall he die, and his name perish?
Mis enemigos dicen mal de mí preguntando: ¿Cuándo morirá, y perecerá su nombre?
6 And if he came to see [me], his heart spoke vainly; he gathered iniquity to himself; he went forth and spoke in like manner.
Y si alguno venía a verme, hablaba mentira; su corazón amontonaba iniquidad; y salido fuera, la hablaba.
7 All my enemies whispered against me; against me they devised my hurt.
Congregados murmuraban contra mí todos los que me aborrecían; contra mí pensaban mal, diciendo de mí:
8 They denounced a wicked word against me, [saying], Now that he lies, shall he not rise up again?
Cosa pestilente de él se ha apoderado; y el que cayó en cama, no volverá a levantarse.
9 For even the man of my peace, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, lifted up [his] heel against me.
Aun el varón de mi paz, en quien yo confiaba, el que comía mi pan, engrandeció contra mí el calcañar.
10 But you, O Lord, have compassion upon me, and raise me up, and I shall requite them.
Mas tú, SEÑOR, ten misericordia de mí, y hazme levantar, y les daré el pago.
11 By this I know that you have delighted in me, because mine enemy shall not rejoice over me.
En esto habré conocido que te he agradado, que mi enemigo no se holgará de mí.
12 But you did help me because of [mine] innocence, and have established me before you for ever.
En cuanto a mí, en mi integridad me has sustentado, y me has asentado delante de ti para siempre.
13 Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. So be it, so be it.
Bendito sea el SEÑOR, el Dios de Israel, por los siglos de los siglos. Amén y Amén.
