Salmos 64
1 Para el director del coro. Un salmo de David. Dios, te suplico que escuches mi queja. Protégeme porque tengo miedo de mis enemigos.
God, listen to me as I tell you the things that I am worried about. I am afraid of my enemies; so save/rescue me from them.
2 Guárdame de las conspiraciones de los malvados, de esta multitud llena de maldad.
Protect me from what wicked men are planning to do to me; protect me from that gang of men who do what is evil.
3 Sus palabras son hirientes como espadas, y de sus bocas emanan palabras venenosas como flechas.
The hostile things they say [MTY] are like [SIM] [sharp] swords; their cruel words are like [SIM] arrows.
4 Desde sus escondites disparan contra los inocentes, sin ningún temor de ser atrapados.
Without being afraid, they [lie about people and slander people] who have not done what is wrong, like someone who suddenly jumps up from where he is hiding and shoots [arrows] at his enemy [MET].
5 Animan a otros a hacer el mal y conspiran sobre cómo engañar a las personas diciendo: “Nadie lo sabrá”.
They encourage each other about doing the evil things that they are planning to do; they talk [with each other] about where they can set traps to catch people, and they think, “No one [RHQ] will see what we are doing,
6 Ellos conspiran en hacer el mal. Con orgullo dicen: “¡Qué gran plan hemos creado!”. No hay límites en las profundidades a las que la mente humana puede llegar.
because we have planned very well the crime that we are going to commit!” No one can fully understand what people can think and plan!
7 Pero Dios les disparará con flechas, y repentinamente caerán heridos.
But [it will be as though] God will shoot his arrows at them, and suddenly they will be wounded.
8 Tropezarán con sus propios engaños. Quienes los vean se reirán de ellos y con sus cabezas harán señal de burla.
Because of what they say [MTY], he will get rid of them, and then everyone who sees [what has happened to] them will shake their heads [to ridicule them].
9 Entonces todos temerán. Dirán que esta es la obra de Dios, y se darán cuenta de las cosas que Él ha hecho.
And then everyone will be afraid [to sin because of what might happen to them, also]; they will tell others what God has done, and they themselves will think much about it.
10 Los justos se alegrarán con el Señor y buscarán su protección. Los que viven en rectitud lo alabarán.
Righteous people should rejoice because of what Yahweh [has done]; they should go to him to (find protection/be safe); and all those who are godly will praise him.
