Psalms 41
1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. Blessed is he who considers the poor. The LORD will deliver him in the day of evil.
Al Vencedor: Salmo de David. Bienaventurado el que entiende sobre el pobre; en el día malo lo librará el SEÑOR.
2 The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive. He shall be blessed on the earth, and he will not surrender him to the will of his enemies.
El SEÑOR lo guarde, y le dé vida: sea bienaventurado en la tierra, y no lo entregues a la voluntad de sus enemigos.
3 The LORD will sustain him on his sickbed, and restore him from his bed of illness.
El SEÑOR lo sustentará sobre el lecho del dolor; mullirás toda su cama en su enfermedad.
4 I said, “LORD, have mercy on me! Heal me, for I have sinned against you.”
Yo dije: SEÑOR, ten misericordia de mí; sana mi alma, porque contra ti he pecado.
5 My enemies speak evil against me: “When will he die, and his name perish?”
Mis enemigos dicen mal de mí preguntando: ¿Cuándo morirá, y perecerá su nombre?
6 If he comes to see me, he speaks falsehood. His heart gathers iniquity to itself. When he goes abroad, he tells it.
Y si alguno venía a verme, hablaba mentira; su corazón amontonaba iniquidad; y salido fuera, la hablaba.
7 All who hate me whisper together against me. They imagine the worst for me.
Congregados murmuraban contra mí todos los que me aborrecían; contra mí pensaban mal, diciendo de mí:
8 “An evil disease”, they say, “has afflicted him. Now that he lies he shall rise up no more.”
Cosa pestilente de él se ha apoderado; y el que cayó en cama, no volverá a levantarse.
9 Yes, my own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, who ate bread with me, has lifted up his heel against me.
Aun el varón de mi paz, en quien yo confiaba, el que comía mi pan, engrandeció contra mí el calcañar.
10 But you, LORD, have mercy on me, and raise me up, that I may repay them.
Mas tú, SEÑOR, ten misericordia de mí, y hazme levantar, y les daré el pago.
11 By this I know that you delight in me, because my enemy doesn’t triumph over me.
En esto habré conocido que te he agradado, que mi enemigo no se holgará de mí.
12 As for me, you uphold me in my integrity, and set me in your presence forever.
En cuanto a mí, en mi integridad me has sustentado, y me has asentado delante de ti para siempre.
13 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting and to everlasting! Amen and amen.
Bendito sea el SEÑOR, el Dios de Israel, por los siglos de los siglos. Amén y Amén.
