< Psalms 5 >
1 For the music director. A psalm of David, to be accompanied by flutes. Lord, please listen to me. Don't ignore my groans of distress.
Escucha, o! Jehová, mis palabras: entiende mi meditación.
2 Hear me pleading for help, my King and my God, because I'm praying to you.
Está atento a la voz de mi clamor, Rey mío, y Dios mío, porque a ti oraré.
3 Please listen to what I have to say in the morning, Lord. Every morning I put my requests to you and wait for your reply.
Jehová, de mañana oirás mi voz: de mañana me presentaré a ti, y esperaré.
4 For you are not a God who has any pleasure in wickedness; evil has no place with you.
Porque tú no eres Dios que quieres la maldad; el malo no habitará junto a ti.
5 The proud cannot come into your presence; you hate everyone who does evil.
No estarán los insensatos delante de tus ojos: a todos los que obran iniquidad, aborreciste.
6 You destroy those who tell lies. The Lord loathes bloodthirsty and deceptive people.
Destruirás a los que hablan mentira: al varón de sangres y de engaño abominará Jehová.
7 But because of the greatness of your trustworthy love, I can come into your house; in awe of you I bow down towards your holy Temple.
Y yo en la multitud de tu misericordia entraré en tu casa: adoraré al santo templo tuyo con tu temor.
8 Lead me, Lord, you who always does what is right, save me from my enemies. Make your way clear to me.
Jehová, guíame en tu justicia a causa de mis enemigos: endereza delante de mí tu camino.
9 Nothing they say can be trusted; their main desire is to destroy. Their throat is like an open grave; their tongues are full of flattery.
Porque no hay en su boca rectitud: sus entrañas son pravedades: sepulcro abierto su garganta, con su lengua lisonjearán.
10 God, condemn them as guilty! Make them fall because of their evil plans. Throw them out because of all their sins, for they have rebelled against you.
Asuélales, o! Dios, caigan de sus consejos: por la multitud de sus rebeliones échales, porque se rebelaron contra ti.
11 But may all those who trust in you be happy—may they sing for joy forever. May you spread your protection over them so that everyone who loves your character may celebrate.
Y alegrarse han todos los que esperan en ti; para siempre se regocijarán, y cubrirles has, y alegrarse han en ti los que aman tu nombre.
12 For you, Lord, bless those who live right; you protect them with your shield of love.
Porque tú bendecirás al justo, o! Jehová; como de un pavés le cercarás de benevolencia.
