< Psalms 41 >
1 Blessed is he that considers the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
Bienaventurado el que entiende sobre el pobre; en el día malo le libre Jehová.
2 The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and you will not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.
Jehová le guarde, y le dé vida; sea bienaventurado en la tierra, y no le entregues a la voluntad de sus enemigos.
3 The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: you will make all his bed in his sickness.
Jehová le sustentará sobre la cama de dolor; toda su cama revolviste en su enfermedad.
4 I said, LORD, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against you.
Yo dije: Jehová, ten misericordia de mí; sana a mi alma, porque he pecado contra ti.
5 Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?
Mis enemigos dicen mal de mí: ¿Cuándo morirá, y perecerá su nombre?
6 And if he comes to see me, he speaks vanity: his heart gathers iniquity to itself; when he goes abroad, he tells it.
Y si me venía a ver, hablaba mentira: su corazón le amontonaba iniquidad: salido fuera, hablaba.
7 All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.
Congregados murmuraban contra mí todos los que me aborrecían; contra mí pensaban mal para mí.
8 An evil disease, say they, cleaves fast unto him: and now that he lies he shall rise up no more.
Cosa pestilencial, dicen, se ha pegado en él; y el que cayó en cama, no volverá a levantarse.
9 Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.
Aun el varón de mi paz, en quien confiaba; el que comía mi pan, engrandeció contra mí el calcañar.
10 But you, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.
Mas tú Jehová, ten misericordia de mí, y házme levantar; y pagárles he.
11 By this I know that you favour me, because mine enemy does not triumph over me.
En esto conocí que te he agradado, porque mi enemigo no triunfará contra mí.
12 And as for me, you uphold me in mine integrity, and set me before your face for ever.
Y yo en mi integridad me has sustentado: y me has hecho estar delante de ti para siempre.
13 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
Bendito sea Jehová, el Dios de Israel, de siglo a siglo. Amén, y Amén.
