< Salmos 75 >
1 Para el director del coro. Un Salmo de Asaf. Según la canción “No destruyas”. Una canción. Te agradecemos, oh Dios, porque estás junto a nosotros. Toda la gente habla sobre tus maravillas.
We give thanks to you; our God, we thank you. You are close to us, and we proclaim to others the wonderful things that you have done [for us].
2 Dios dice: “Cuando decida el momento, juzgaré con justicia.
[You have said], “I have appointed a time when I will judge people, and I will judge [everyone] fairly.
3 Cuando la tierra tiemble, así como sus habitantes, yo la mantendré firme. (Selah)
When the earth shakes and all the creatures on the earth tremble, I am the one who will (keep its foundations steady/prevent it from being destroyed).
4 A los que se jactan dije: ‘¡No se jacten!’ Le dije a los malvados: ‘¡Dejen el orgullo!’
I say to people who (boast/talk proudly about themselves), ‘Stop bragging!’ and I say to wicked people, ‘Do not proudly [do things to] show how great you are [IDM]!
5 No, no sean arrogantes y orgullosos, insultando al cielo”.
Do not be arrogant, and do not speak so boastfully!’”
6 Porque nadie, ni en el este o en el oeste, o incluso en el desierto debe pensar de sí mismo con justicia.
The one who judges people does not come from the east or from the west, and he does not come from the desert.
7 Dios es el que decide quién se levantará y quién caerá.
God is the one who judges people; he says that some have sinned and must be punished, and that others have not done what is wrong.
8 Porque el Señor tiene una copa en su mano, llena de vino espumoso mezclado con especias. Él vierte el vino, y todos los malvados lo beberán, hasta la última gota.
[It is as though] Yahweh holds a cup in his hand; it is filled with wine that [has spices] mixed in it [to cause those who drink it to become more drunk]; and when Yahweh pours it out, he will force all the wicked people to drink it; they will drink every drop of it, [which means that he will give them all the punishment that they deserve].
9 Pero yo hablaré de ti para siempre. Cantaré alabanzas al Dios de Jacob.
But [as for me], I will never stop saying what the God whom Jacob [worshiped has done]; I will never quit singing to praise him.
10 Porque Dios dice: “Quebraré el poder de los malvados, pero aumentaré el poder de los justos”.
He will destroy the power [IDM] of wicked people, but he will cause righteous people to become more powerful.
