< Psalms 91 >
1 Praise of a Song, by David. He that dwells in the help of the Highest, shall sojourn under the shelter of the God of heaven.
El que habita en el escondedero del Altísimo, morará en la sombra del Omnipotente.
2 He shall say to the Lord, You are my helper and my refuge: my God; I will hope in him.
Diré a Jehová: Esperanza mía y castillo mío: Dios mío: asegurarme he en él.
3 For he shall deliver you from the snare of the hunters, from [every] troublesome matter.
Porque él te escapará del lazo del cazador: de la mortandad de destrucciones.
4 He shall overshadow you with his shoulders, and you shall trust under his wings: his truth shall cover you with a shield.
Con su ala te cubrirá, y debajo de sus alas estarás seguro: escudo y adarga, es su verdad.
5 You shall not be afraid of terror by night; nor of the arrow flying by day;
No habrás temor de espanto nocturno, ni de saeta que vuele de día,
6 [nor] of the [evil] thing that walks in darkness; [nor] of calamity, and the evil spirit at noon-day.
Ni de pestilencia que ande en oscuridad: ni de mortandad que destruya al mediodía.
7 A thousand shall fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.
Caerán a tu lado mil, y diez mil a tu diestra: a ti no llegará.
8 Only with your eyes shall you observe and see the reward of sinners.
Ciertamente con tus ojos mirarás; y verás la recompensa de los impíos.
9 For you, O Lord, are my hope: you, my soul, have made the Most High your refuge.
Porque tú, o! Jehová, eres mi esperanza: y al Altísimo has puesto por tu habitación.
10 No evils shall come upon you, and no scourge shall draw near to your dwelling.
No se ordenará para ti mal: ni plaga tocará a tu morada.
11 For he shall give his angels charge concerning you, to keep you in all your ways.
Porque a sus ángeles mandará cerca de ti, que te guarden en todos tus caminos.
12 They shall bear you up on their hands, lest at any time you dash your foot against a stone.
En las manos te llevarán, porque tu pie no tropiece en piedra.
13 You shall tread on the asp and basilisk: and you shall trample on the lion and dragon.
Sobre el león y el basilisco pisarás, hollarás al cachorro del león, y al dragón.
14 For he has hoped in me, and I will deliver him: I will protect him, because he has known my name.
Por cuanto en mí ha puesto su voluntad, yo también le escaparé: ponerle he alto, por cuanto ha conocido mi nombre.
15 He shall call upon me, and I will listen to him: I am with him in affliction; and I will deliver him, and glorify him.
Llamarme ha, y yo le responderé: con él estaré yo en la angustia: escaparle he, y glorificarle he.
16 I will satisfy him with length of days, and show him my salvation.
De longura de días le hartaré: y mostrarle he mi salud.
