< Psalms 36 >
1 For the chief musician. A psalm of David the servant of Yahweh. An evil man speaks of his transgression from deep in his heart, there is no fear of God in his eyes.
Al maestro de coro. De David, siervo de Dios. La rebeldía instiga al impío en su corazón; a sus ojos no hay temor de Dios.
2 For he comforts himself, thinking that his sin will not be discovered and be hated.
Por tanto, se lisonjea en su mente de que su culpa no será hallada ni aborrecida.
3 His words are sinful and deceitful; he does not want to be wise and do good.
Las palabras de su boca son malicia y fraude, no se cuida de entender para obrar bien.
4 While he lies in bed, he plans ways to sin; he sets out on an evil way; he does not reject evil.
En su lecho medita la iniquidad; anda siempre en malos caminos. La maldad no le causa horror.
5 Your covenant faithfulness, Yahweh, reaches to the heavens; your loyalty reaches to the clouds.
Yahvé, tu misericordia toca el cielo; tu fidelidad, las nubes.
6 Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your judgments are like the great deep. Yahweh, you preserve both mankind and the animals.
Tu justicia es alta como los montes de Dios; profundos como el mar, tus juicios. Tú, Yahvé, socorres al hombre y al animal.
7 How precious is your covenant faithfulness, God! Humanity takes refuge under the shadow of your wings.
¡Cuán preciosa es, oh Dios, tu largueza! los hijos de los hombres se abrigan a la sombra de tus alas.
8 They feast upon the abundance of your house; you let them drink from the river of your delights.
Se sacian con la abundancia de tu casa, y los embriagas en el río de tus delicias.
9 For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we will see light.
Pues en Ti está la fuente de la vida, y en tu luz vemos la luz.
10 Extend your covenant faithfulness fully to those who know you, your defense to the upright of heart.
Despliega tu bondad sobre los que te conocen, y tu justicia sobre los de corazón recto.
11 Do not let the foot of the arrogant man come near to me. Do not let the hand of the wicked drive me away.
No me aplaste el pie del soberbio ni me haga vacilar la mano del impío.
12 Over there the evildoers have fallen; they are knocked down and are not able to get up.
He aquí derribados a los obradores de la iniquidad, caídos para no levantarse más.
