Psalms 57
1 For the music director. According to “Do Not Destroy.” A psalm (miktam) of David concerning the time he fled from Saul and hid in the cave. Please be kind to me, God! Be kind to me because I come to you for protection. I will shelter under the shadow of your wings until the danger is past.
Ten misericordia de mí, o! Dios, ten misericordia de mí; porque en ti ha confiado mi alma, y en la sombra de tus alas me ampararé, hasta que pasen los quebrantamientos.
2 I cry out for help to God Most High, to God who vindicates me.
Clamaré al Dios Altísimo, al Dios que me galardona.
3 From heaven he sends his help, and he saves me. He defeats those who persecute me. (Selah) God sends me his unfailing love, showing he is completely trustworthy.
El enviará desde los cielos, y me salvará de la afrenta de él que me traga. (Selah) Dios enviará su misericordia y su verdad.
4 I am surrounded by man-eating lions—I am forced to live with them! Their teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongues are swords.
Mi vida está entre leones: estoy echado entre hijos de hombres que echan llamas: sus dientes son lanza y saetas, y su lengua espada aguda.
5 God, your greatness is above the highest heavens; and your glory covers the whole earth!
Ensálzate sobre los cielos, o! Dios: sobre toda la tierra se ensalce tu gloria.
6 They set a trap to catch me. I was so depressed. They dug a pit on my path but they were the ones who fell into it. (Selah)
Red han compuesto a mis pasos, mi alma se ha abatido: hoyo han cavado delante de mí, caigan en medio de él. (Selah)
7 I have confidence in you, God, I have confidence in you. I will sing songs of praise to you.
Aparejado está mi corazón, o! Dios, aparejado está mi corazón: cantaré, y diré salmos.
8 I say to myself, “Wake up!” Wake up, harp and lyre! I will wake up the dawn!
Despierta, o! gloria mía, despierta salterio y arpa; levantarme he de mañana.
9 I will thank you among the peoples, Lord; I will sing your praises among the nations.
Alabarte he en los pueblos, o! Señor, cantaré de ti en las naciones:
10 Your faithful love reaches to the heavens; your trustworthiness to the clouds.
Porque grande es hasta los cielos tu misericordia, y hasta las nubes tu verdad.
11 God, your greatness is above the highest heavens; and your glory covers the whole earth!
Ensálzate sobre los cielos, o! Dios; sobre toda la tierra se ensalce tu gloria.
