< Psalms 57 >
1 For the end. Destroy not: by David, for a memorial, when he fled from the presence of Saul to the cave. Have mercy, upon me, O God, have mercy upon me: for my soul has trusted in you: and in the shadow of your wings will I hope, until the iniquity have passed away.
Ten compasión de mí, oh ʼElohim. Ten compasión de mí. Porque mi alma confía en Ti, Y en la sombra de tus alas me amparo Hasta que pase la destrucción.
2 I will cry to God most high; the God who has benefitted me. (Pause)
Clamaré a ʼElohim ʼElyón, A ʼEL, Quien me favorece.
3 He sent from heaven and saved me; he gave to reproach them that trampled on me: God has sent forth his mercy and his truth;
Él enviará desde el cielo Y me salvará de la infamia del que me oprime. (Selah) ʼElohim enviará su misericordia y su verdad.
4 and he has delivered my soul from the midst of [lions']whelps: I lay down to sleep, [though] troubled. [As for] the sons of men, their teeth are arms and [missile] weapons, and their tongue a sharp sword.
Mi vida está en medio de leones. Estoy tendido entre los que respiran fuego. Hijos de hombres, sus dientes son lanzas y flechas, Y su lengua, espada aguda.
5 Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens; and your glory above all the earth.
¡Exaltado seas sobre los cielos, oh ʼElohim! ¡Tu gloria sea sobre toda la tierra!
6 They have prepared snares for my feet, and have bowed down my soul: they have dug a pit before my face, and fallen into it [themselves]. (Pause)
Tendieron una red ante mis pies para doblegar mi vida. Cavaron un hoyo delante de mí Y ellos cayeron en él. (Selah)
7 My heart, O God, [is] ready, my heart [is] ready: I will sing, yes will sing psalms.
Mi corazón está establecido, oh ʼElohim. Está firme mi corazón. Cantaré y entonaré salmos.
8 Awake, my glory; awake, lute and harp: I will awake early.
Despierta, alma mía. Despierten, arpa y lira. Yo despertaré el alba.
9 O Lord, I will give thanks to you amongst the nations: I will sing to you amongst the Gentiles.
Te daré gracias entre los pueblos, oh ʼAdonay. Te cantaré salmos en las naciones.
10 For your mercy has been magnified even to the heavens, and your truth to the clouds.
Porque tu misericordia es grande hasta los cielos, Y tu verdad, hasta las nubes.
11 Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens; and your glory above all the earth.
Exaltado seas sobre los cielos, oh ʼElohim. Y tu gloria sea por encima de toda la tierra.
