< Psalms 36 >
1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD. The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before 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 flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity is found to be hateful.
Por tanto, se lisonjea en su mente de que su culpa no será hallada ni aborrecida.
3 The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath ceased to be wise, and to do good.
Las palabras de su boca son malicia y fraude, no se cuida de entender para obrar bien.
4 He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil.
En su lecho medita la iniquidad; anda siempre en malos caminos. La maldad no le causa horror.
5 Thy mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth to the clouds.
Yahvé, tu misericordia toca el cielo; tu fidelidad, las nubes.
6 Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast.
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 excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.
¡Cuán preciosa es, oh Dios, tu largueza! los hijos de los hombres se abrigan a la sombra de tus alas.
8 They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.
Se sacian con la abundancia de tu casa, y los embriagas en el río de tus delicias.
9 For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.
Pues en Ti está la fuente de la vida, y en tu luz vemos la luz.
10 O continue thy lovingkindness to them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.
Despliega tu bondad sobre los que te conocen, y tu justicia sobre los de corazón recto.
11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.
No me aplaste el pie del soberbio ni me haga vacilar la mano del impío.
12 There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise.
He aquí derribados a los obradores de la iniquidad, caídos para no levantarse más.
