Salmos 30
1 Un Salmo de David. Un Salmo para la dedicación del Templo. Quiero decirle a todos cuán bueno eres, Señor, porque me salvaste, y no dejaste que mis enemigos triunfaran sobre mí.
Yahweh, I praise you because you rescued me. You did not allow [me to die], [with the result that] my enemies could gloat/rejoice.
2 Señor, mi Dios, te pedí ayuda, y me has sanado.
Yahweh, my God, I called out for you to help [me when I was ill], and you healed me.
3 Señor, me rescataste de la tumba, me trajiste de vuelta a la vida, salvándome de ir al hoyo de la muerte. (Sheol h7585)
You saved/restored me when I was dying [MTY]. I was nearly dead, but you caused me to get well again. (Sheol h7585)
4 ¡Tú que confías en el Señor, canta alabanzas a él, agradece por su santo carácter!
All you who belong to Yahweh, sing praise to him! Think about what [God], the holy one, has done, and thank him!
5 Porque su furia solo dura un momento, pero su favor dura toda la vida. Puedes pasar la noche llorando, pero la felicidad viene con la mañana.
When he becomes angry, he is angry for only a very short time [HYP], but he is good [to us] all of our life. We may cry during the night, but the next morning we will be joyful.
6 Cuando las cosas iban bien dije, “¡Nada me hará temblar!”
As for me, when I had no troubles, I said [to myself], “No one will defeat me!”
7 Señor, cuando me mostraste tu favor permanecí tan fuerte como una montaña. Pero cuando te apartaste de mí estaba aterrorizado.
Yahweh, because you were good to me, at first you caused me to be safe [as though I was inside] [MET] a mountain. But then [I became ill, and I thought that] you had turned away from me, and I became afraid.
8 Clamé a ti por ayuda. Le pedí ayuda al señor, diciendo:
[Then] I called out to you, and I pleaded for you [to help me].
9 ¿Qué podrías ganar si yo muero, si me hundo en el hoyo de la muerte? ¿Podrá el polvo alabarte? ¿Podrá hablar de ti?
[I said], “Yahweh, (what will you gain if I die?/ you won’t gain anything if I die) [MTY]. (In what way will it benefit you?/it won’t benefit you at all) if I go to the place where the dead people are [RHQ]. Dead people are certainly not able to praise you [RHQ], and they are not able to tell others that you are trustworthy [RHQ]!
10 Por favor escúchame, Señor, ¡Y ten misericordia de mi! Señor, eres el único que me ayuda.
Yahweh, listen to me, and be merciful to me! Yahweh, help me!”
11 Has convertido mi llanto en danza. Has quitado mis vestiduras de cilicio y me has vestido de felicidad,
But [now you have healed me], and you have caused me to change from being sad to dancing [joyfully]. You have taken away the clothes that showed that I was very sad and you have given me clothes that showed that I was [very] joyful.
12 para que cante alabanzas a ti y no me quede callado. Señor mi Dios, ¡Te agradeceré por siempre!
So I will not be silent; I will sing out [loudly] to praise you. Yahweh, you are my God, and I will thank you forever.
