Psalms 119
1 (Yahweh is pleased with/Happy are) those about whom no one can say truthfully that they have done things that are wrong, those who always obey the laws of Yahweh.
Felices son los que hacen lo recto y siguen las enseñanzas del Señor.
2 Yahweh is pleased with those who (obey his requirements/do what he has instructed them to do), those who request him with their entire inner beings to help them [to do that].

Ellos no hacen el mal, y andan por su camino.

Tú nos has ordenado seguir tus instrucciones con cuidado.
5 I desire that I will faithfully/always obey all (your statutes/that you have said that [we] should do).
¡Deseo poder cumplir tus reglas de tal forma que puedas confiar en mi!
6 If I continually (heed/pay attention to) all (your commands/that you have commanded), I will not be disgraced/ashamed.

20 In my inner being I strongly desire to know (your regulations/the rules that you have given to us) all the time.

67 Before you afflicted/punished me, I did things that were wrong, but now I obey (your words/what you have told us to do).
Antes estuve sufriendo, mientras vagaba lejos de ti, pero ahora hago tu voluntad.
68 You are [very] good, and what you do is good; teach me (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).

80 Enable me to perfectly [obey] (your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do) in order that I may not be ashamed [because of not doing that].

81 I am very tired/exhausted while I wait for you to save [me from my enemies]; [but] I confidently expect that you will tell [me what you will do].
Me siento agotado de tanto esperar por tu salvación, pero mantengo mi esperanza en tu palabra.
82 My eyes are tired from waiting a long time for you to do what you promised/said that you would do, and I ask, “When will you help/encourage me?”
Mis ojos se esfuerzan por guardar tus promesas, y se preguntan cuándo vendrás a consolarme.
83 I have become [as useless as] [MET] a wineskin that is [shriveled from hanging a long time] in the smoke [inside a house], but I have not forgotten (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).
Estoy arrugado como un odre arrugado por el humo. Pero no he olvidado cómo hacer tu voluntad.
84 How long must I wait? When will you punish those who (persecute/cause trouble for) me?
¿Hasta cuándo tengo que esperar para que castigues a mis perseguidores?
85 [It is as though] proud people have dug deep pits for me [to fall into], people who do not obey your laws.
Estas personas arrogantes han cavado huecos para hacerme caer. No conocen tu ley.
86 All (your commands are/what you have commanded is) trustworthy; [but] people are (persecuting/causing trouble for) me by telling lies [about me, so please] help me!

Casi me han matado, pero no he dejado de hacer tu voluntad.
88 Because you faithfully love [me], allow me [to continue] to live in order that I may [continue to] obey (your rules/what you have instructed [us to do]).
Por tu amor incondicional, Señor, no me dejes morir, para poder seguir andando según las enseñanzas que me has dado.
89 Yahweh, your words will last forever; they will last as long as heaven lasts.
Señor, tu palabra permanece para siempre, y se mantiene firme en los cielos.
90 You will faithfully [continue doing] ([for people who are not yet born/in every generation]) what you have (promised/said that you would do); you have put the earth in its place, and it remains firmly [there].
Tu fidelidad se extiende por generaciones, y es tan permanente como la tierra que tú creaste.
91 To this day, [all things on the earth] remain because you decided that they should remain; everything [on the earth] serves you.
Tus juicios siguen vigentes —aun hasta hoy—porque todo sirve a tu voluntad.
92 If I had not been delighted [in obeying] your laws, I would have died because of what I was suffering.
Si no fuera porque amo tus enseñanzas, mi sufrimiento me habría matado.
93 I will never forget (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do), because as a result of [my obeying them] you have enabled me to [continue to] live.
Nunca olvidaré tus instrucciones, porque a través de ellas me das vida.
94 I belong to you; save/rescue me [from my enemies], because I have tried to obey (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Soy tuyo, Señor. ¡Sálvame! Sabes que con devoción sigo tus principios.
95 Wicked [men] are waiting to kill me, but I [will] think about what you have instructed [us to do].
Aunque los malvados están esperando para tomarme por sorpresa y matarme, mantendré mi pensamiento enfocado en tus enseñanzas.
96 I have learned that there is a limit/end for everything, but what you command (has no limits/never ends).
Reconozco que la perfección humana tiene límites, pero tus leyes no tienen límites.
97 I love your laws very much. I (meditate on/think about) them all during the day.
¡Cuánto amo tu ley! En ella medito de día y de noche.
98 Because I know (your commands/what you have commanded), and because I think about them all the time, I have become wiser than my enemies.
Tus mandamientos me han hecho más sabio que mis enemigos, porque siempre estoy pensando en tus instrucciones.
99 I understand more than my teachers do, because I (meditate on/think about) (your requirements/what you have instructed us to do).

Nunca he rechazado tus enseñanzas porque tu mismo me has enseñado lo que debo hacer.
103 [When I read] your words, they are like [MET] sweet things that I taste/eat, [yes], they are even sweeter than honey.
Tus palabras son dulces para mi. Más dulces que la miel en mi boca.
104 Because [I have learned] (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do), I am able to understand [many things]; therefore, I hate all evil things [that some people do].
Mi entendimiento aumenta al escuchar tu palabra. Por ello aborrezco los caminos del engaño.
105 Your words are [like] [MET] a lamp to guide me; they are [like] a light [MET] to show me the path [that I should walk on].
Tu palabra es una lámpara que me muestra por dónde caminar. Y es una luz en mi camino.
106 I have solemnly promised, and I am solemnly promising it again, that I will [always] obey your (regulations/rules that you have given to us), and they are [all] fair/just.
¡He hecho una promesa, y la mantendré! ¡Seguiré tus principios porque son rectos!
107 Yahweh, I am suffering very much; cause me to be strong/healthy [again], as you have promised to do.
¡Señor, mira cuánto estoy sufriendo! Por favor, déjame vivir, tal como me lo has prometido.
108 Yahweh, when I thank you while I pray, it is [like] [MET] a sacrifice to you; [please] accept it, and teach me your (regulations/rules that you have given to us).
Por favor, Señor, acepta mi ofrenda de adoración que te traigo de todo corazón. Enséñame tus principios.
109 [My enemies are] often trying to kill me [IDM], but I do not forget your laws.
Mi vida siempre está en peligro, pero nunca me olvidaré de tu ley.
110 Wicked [people] have tried to seize me [like a hunter tries to catch an animal] with a trap [MET], but I have not disobeyed (your principles of behavior/what you declared that we should do).

Siempre me aferraré a tus enseñanzas porque tu palabra me llena de felicidad.
112 I (have decided/am determined) [IDM] to obey (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do) until the day that I die [MTY].
He decidido seguir tus enseñanzas hasta el final.
113 I hate people who are [only] partly committed to you, but I love your laws.
Aborrezco a los hipócritas pero amo tu ley.
114 You are [like] a place where I can hide [from my enemies], and you are [like] a shield [MET] [behind which I am protected from them], and I trust in your promises.
Tú me mantienes a salvo y me defiendes. Tu palabra alimenta mi esperanza.
115 You evil people, stay away from me in order than I may obey (my God’s commands/what my God has commanded)!
Déjenme en paz, hombres malvados. Déjenme seguir los mandamientos de mi Dios.
116 Enable me to be strong, as you promised/said that you would do, in order that I may [continue to] live. I am confidently expecting [that you will restore me]; (do not disappoint me/do not allow me to be disappointed).
Sé mi sostén, Señor, como me lo has prometido, para poder seguir viviendo. No dejes que mi esperanza se convierta en desánimo.
117 Hold me up, in order that I will be safe and always (pay attention to/heed) (your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do).
Sé mi consuelo, para ser salvo y seguir atendiendo tus enseñanzas.
118 You reject all those who disobey (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do); but what they deceitfully plan to do will be (useless/in vain).
Tú aborreces a los que no te obedecen. Ellos se engañan a sí mismos con una vida de mentiras.
119 You get rid of all the wicked [people] on the earth like [SIM] [people throw away] trash; therefore I love what you have instructed us to do.
Tú tratas a los perversos en la tierra como seres despreciables que han de ser desechados. Por eso amo tu ley.
120 I [SYN] tremble because I am afraid of you; I am afraid [because you punish those who do not obey] (your regulations/the rules that you have given to us).
¡Me estremezco al pensar en ti, y te temo por tus juicios!

He hecho lo justo y lo recto. Por ello, no me abandones en manos de mis enemigos.
122 Promise me that you will do good things for me and do not allow proud [people] to oppress me.
Por favor, prométeme que cuidarás de mi tu siervo. No dejes que los arrogantes me maltraten.
123 My eyes are tired from waiting a long time for you to rescue [me], for you to save [me] like you promised/said that you would.
Mis ojos están cansados de esperar tu salvación, tratando de ver cumplida tu promesa de hacer buenas todas las cosas.
124 Do something for me to show that you faithfully love [me], and teach me (your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do).
A mi, que soy tu siervo, trátame según tu amor y fidelidad. Enséñame tu voluntad.
125 I am one who serves you; enable me to understand [what you want me to know] in order that I will know (your requirements/what you have instructed us to do).
Soy tu siervo. Por favor, dame discernimiento para entender tus enseñanzas.
126 Yahweh, now is the time for you to [punish people] because they have disobeyed your laws.
Señor, ya es hora de que actúes respecto a estas personas que han quebrantado tus leyes.
127 Truly, I love (your commands/what you have commanded) more than I love gold; I love them more than I love [very] pure gold.
Por ello amo tus mandamientos más que el oro. Más que el oro puro.
128 So I conduct my life by (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do), and I hate all the evil things that [some people do].
Cada uno de tus principios es justo. Por ello aborrezco los caminos del engaño.
129 (Your requirements are/All the things that you have instructed us to do are) wonderful, so I obey them with all my inner being.
¡Tus leyes son maravillosas y por ello las obedezco!
130 When someone explains (your words/what you have said), [it is as though] they are lighting a light; what they say causes [even] people who have not learned your laws to be wise.
El estudiar tu palabra proporciona tanta luz, que aún los iletrados pueden etenderla.
131 I eagerly desire to know (your commands/what you have commanded), like [SIM] a [dog] that pants with its mouth open [wanting to be fed].
Anhelo con fervor escuchar tu voluntad.
132 Listen to me and act kindly to me, like you do to [all] those who love you [MTY].
Por favor, escúchame y sé bondadoso conmigo, como lo eres con todos los que te aman.
133 Guide me as you promised/said that you would do and help me not to fall/sin; do not allow evil [people] to control what I do.
Muéstrame a través de tu palabra el camino que debo tomar, y no dejes que ningún mal se apodere de mi.
134 Rescue/Save me from those who oppress me in order that I may obey (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Sálvame de la gente cruel, para poder seguir tus enseñanzas.
135 Be kind to me and teach me (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).
Por favor, mírame con amor, a mi, tu siervo; y enséñame lo que debo hacer.
136 I cry very much because [many] people do not obey your laws.
Mis lágrimas corren por mi rostro mientras lloro por los que no guardan tu ley.
137 Yahweh, you are righteous and (your regulations/the rules that you have given to us) are just/fair.
¡Señor, tú eres recto y tus decisiones son justas!
138 (Your requirements/All the things that you have instructed us to do) are true and are all very right and fair.
Tú me has dado tus mandatos que son justos y absolutamente confiables.
139 I am (furious/very angry) because my enemies disregard (your words/what you have told us to do).
Mi devoción me consume porque mis enemigos ignoran tu palabra.
140 (Your promises are/All the things that you have said that you will do are) dependable and I love them.
Tus promesas se han cumplido, y por ello, yo, tu siervo, las amo.
141 I am not important and people despise me, but I do not forget (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Quizás soy insignificante y despreciado, pero nunca me olvido de tus mandamientos.
142 You are righteous and you will be righteous forever, and your laws will never be changed.
Tu bondad y tu justicia duran para siempre. Tu ley es la verdad.
143 I [constantly] have troubles/difficulties and I am worried, but (your commands cause/what you have commanded causes) me to be happy.
