< Psalms 116 >
1 Alleluia. I have loved: therefore, the Lord will heed the voice of my prayer.
Amé a Jehová, porque ha oído mi voz: mis ruegos.
2 For he has inclined his ear to me. And in my days, I will call upon him.
Porque ha inclinado su oído a mí; y en mis días le llamaré,
3 The sorrows of death have surrounded me, and the perils of Hell have found me. I have found tribulation and sorrow. (Sheol )
Rodeáronme los dolores de la muerte, las angustias del sepulcro me hallaron: angustia y dolor había hallado: (Sheol )
4 And so, I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, free my soul.
Y llamé el nombre de Jehová: Escapa ahora mi alma, o! Jehová.
5 Merciful is the Lord, and just. And our God is compassionate.
Clemente es Jehová y justo, y misericordioso nuestro Dios.
6 The Lord is the keeper of little ones. I was humbled, and he freed me.
Guarda a los sencillos Jehová: yo estaba debilitado y salvóme.
7 Turn again, my soul, to your rest. For the Lord has done good to you.
Vuelve, o! alma mía, a tu reposo; porque Jehová te ha hecho bien.
8 For he has rescued my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from slipping.
Porque has librado mi alma de la muerte, mis ojos de las lágrimas, mis pies del rempujón.
9 I will please the Lord in the land of the living.
Andaré delante de Jehová en las tierras de los vivos.
10 Alleluia. I had confidence, because of what I was saying, but then I was greatly humbled.
Creí, por tanto hablé: y fui afligido en gran manera.
11 I said in my excess, “Every man is a liar.”
Y dije en mi apresuramiento: Todo hombre es mentiroso.
12 What shall I repay to the Lord, for all the things that he has repaid to me?
¿Qué pagaré a Jehová por todos sus beneficios sobre mí?
13 I will take up the cup of salvation, and I will call upon the name of the Lord.
El vaso de saludes tomaré; e invocaré el nombre de Jehová.
14 I will repay my vows to the Lord, in the sight of all his people.
Ahora pagaré mis votos a Jehová delante de todo su pueblo.
15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his holy ones.
Estimada es en los ojos de Jehová la muerte de sus piadosos.
16 O Lord, because I am your servant, your servant and the son of your handmaid, you have broken my bonds.
Así es, o! Jehová; porque yo soy tu siervo, yo soy tu siervo, hijo de tu sierva, tú rompiste mis prisiones.
17 I will sacrifice to you the sacrifice of praise, and I will invoke the name of the Lord.
A ti sacrificaré sacrificio de alabanza; y el nombre de Jehová invocaré.
18 I will repay my vows to the Lord in the sight of all his people,
Ahora pagaré mis votos a Jehová delante de todo su pueblo;
19 in the courts of the house of the Lord, in your midst, O Jerusalem.
En los patios de la casa de Jehová; en medio de ti, o! Jerusalem. Alelu- Jah.
