Psalms 22
1 My God, my God, why have you abandoned/deserted me? Why do you stay so far from me, and why do you not hear/help me [RHQ]? Why do you not hear me when I am groaning?
¡ʼEL mío, ʼEL mío! ¿Por qué me desamparaste? ¿Por qué estás lejos de mi salvación y de las palabras de mi clamor?
2 My God, every day I call to you during the daytime and during the night, but you do not answer me, so I am not able to sleep.
ʼElohim mío, clamo de día, y no respondes, Y de noche, y no hay descanso para mí.
3 But you are holy. You sit on your throne as king, and [we the people of] Israel praise you [PRS].
Pero Tú eres santo, ¡Tú, que moras entre las alabanzas de Israel!
4 Our ancestors trusted in you. [Because] they trusted in you, you rescued them.
En Ti confiaron nuestros antepasados. Confiaron, y Tú los libraste.
5 When they cried out to you, you saved them. They trusted in you, and (they were not disappointed/you [saved them] as you said that you would).
Clamaron a Ti, y fueron librados. Confiaron en Ti, y no fueron avergonzados.
6 But [you have not rescued me] [People despise me and consider that I am not a man]; [they think that] I am [as worthless as] a worm! Everyone [HYP] scorns me and despises me.
Pero yo soy gusano y no hombre, Oprobio de los hombres y despreciado por el pueblo.
7 Everyone who sees me [HYP] makes fun of me. They sneer at me and [insult me by] shaking their heads [at me as though I were an evil man]. They say,
Todos los que me ven me escarnecen. Hacen una mueca con los labios. Menean la cabeza y dicen:
8 “He trusts in Yahweh, so Yahweh should save him! [He says that] Yahweh is very pleased with him; if that is so, Yahweh should rescue him!”
Se encomendó a Yavé. Líbrelo Él. Que Él lo rescate, Puesto que se complacía en Él.
9 [Why do] you [not] protect me [now as you did] when I was born? I was safe even when I was (nursing/drinking milk from my mother’s breasts).
Pero Tú eres el que me sacó del vientre. Me diste confianza aun cuando estaba a los pechos de mi madre.
10 [It was as though] you adopted me right when I was born. You have (been my God/taken care of me) ever since I was born.
A Ti fui entregado desde la matriz, Desde el vientre de mi madre Tú eres mi ʼEL.
11 So, (do not stay far from/stay close to) [LIT] me now because [enemies who will cause me much] trouble are near me, and there is no one [else] who can help me.
No te alejes de Mí, porque la angustia está cerca, Porque no hay quien ayude.
12 [My enemies] surround me [like] a herd/group of wild bulls. [Fierce people, like those] strong bulls that graze [on the hills] in Bashan [area], encircle me.
Me rodearon muchos toros. Fuertes toros de Basán me rodearon.
13 [They are like] roaring lions that are attacking the animals that they want to kill [MET] [and eat]; they rush toward me [to kill] me; they [are like lions that] have their mouths open, [ready to tear their victims to pieces] [MET].
Abren su boca contra mí Como león voraz y rugiente.
14 I am completely exhausted [MET], and all my bones are out of their joints/places. I [no longer expect that God will save me]; [that expectation is gone completely], like wax that has melted away.
Soy derramado como aguas Y todos mis huesos se descoyuntan. Mi corazón se volvió como cera. Se derritió entre mis órganos.
15 My strength is [all dried up] [MET] like a broken piece of a clay jar that has dried [in the sun]. [I am so thirsty that] my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. O God, [I think that you are about to let] me die and become dirt!
Mi vigor está seco como tiesto Y mi lengua se pega a mis mandíbulas. ¡Me pones en el polvo de la muerte!
16 My enemies [MET] surround me like a pack/group of wild dogs. A group of evil men has encircled me, [ready to attack me]. They have [already] smashed my hands and my feet.
Perros me rodearon. Me cercó cuadrilla de perversos. Horadaron mis manos y mis pies.
17 [I am so weak and thin that] my bones can be seen and counted. My enemies stare at me and (gloat/are happy) about [what has happened to] me.
Puedo contar todos mis huesos. Ellos me miran y me observan.
18 They looked at the clothes that I [was wearing] and gambled to determine which piece each of them would get.
Reparten entre sí mis ropas, Y sobre mi túnica echan suertes.
19 O Yahweh, do not stay far away from me! You who are my [source of] strength, come quickly and help me!
Pero Tú, oh Yavé, ¡no te alejes! Fortaleza mía, ¡Apresúrate a socorrerme!
20 Rescue me from [those who want to kill me with] their swords. Save me from those who are [like wild/fierce] dogs [MET].
¡Libra de la espada el alma mía, Del poder del perro mi vida!
21 Snatch me away from [my enemies who are] like lions whose jaws [are already open, ready to chew me up] Grab me away from [those men who are like] wild oxen [that attack other animals with] their horns [MET]!
¡Sálvame de la boca del león Y de los cuernos de los toros salvajes! ¡Me has respondido!
22 [But you have saved me, so] I will declare to my fellow [Israelis] how great you [MTY] are. I will praise you among the group of your people gathered [to worship you].
Anunciaré tu Nombre a mis hermanos. En medio de la congregación te alabaré.
23 You people who have an awesome respect for Yahweh, praise him! All you who are descended from Jacob, honor Yahweh! All you Israeli people, revere him!
Los que temen a Yavé, alábenlo. Glorifíquenlo, toda la descendencia de Jacob, Y témanle, toda la descendencia de Israel,
24 He does not despise or ignore those who are suffering; he does not hide (his face/himself) from them. He has listened to them when they cried out to him for help.
Porque no menospreció ni aborreció el dolor del afligido, Ni de él ocultó su rostro, Sino cuando clamó a Él, Lo escuchó.
25 Yahweh, in the great gathering [of your people], I will praise you for what you have done. In the presence of those who revere you, I will offer [the sacrifices] that I promised.
De Ti viene mi alabanza en la gran congregación. Cumpliré mis votos delante de los que te temen.
26 The poor people [whom I have invited to the meal] will eat as much as they want. All who come worship Yahweh will praise him. I pray that [God will enable] you all to live a long and happy life!
¡Los pobres comerán y serán saciados! ¡Alabarán a Yavé los que lo buscan! ¡Que su corazón viva para siempre!
27 I pray that [people in all nations, even] in the remote areas, will think about Yahweh and turn to him, and that people from all the clans in the world will bow down before him.
Se acordarán y volverán a Yavé de todos los confines de la tierra, Y todas las familias de las naciones se postrarán delante de Ti.
28 Because Yahweh is the king! He rules all the nations.
Porque de Yavé es el reino, Y Él gobierna las naciones.
29 I desire that all the rich people on the earth will bow before him. Some day they will die, but I want them to prostrate themselves on the ground in his presence [before they die].
Comerán y se postrarán Todos los poderosos de la tierra, Los que bajan al polvo se postrarán ante Él, Los que no pueden conservar viva su alma.
30 People (in the future generations/who have not been born yet) will also serve Yahweh. Our descendants will be told about what Yahweh [has done].
Una futura generación le servirá. Esto se dirá de ʼAdonay hasta la próxima generación.
31 People who are not yet born, [who will live in future years], will be told how Yahweh rescued his people. People will tell them, “Yahweh did it!”
Acudirán y declararán su justicia, Anunciarán a pueblo que nacerá que Él hizo esto.
