< Salmos 84 >
1 Para el director del coro. Un salmo de los descendientes de Coré. En el Gitit. ¡Cuán maravilloso es el lugar donde vives, Señor todo poderoso!
Lord, you who are the Commander of the armies of angels, your temple is very beautiful!
2 Anhelo estar los atrios del Señor, agonizo de dolor por no estar en ellos. Mi mente y mi cuerpo cantan de alegría por el Dios viviente.
I [SYN] would like to be there; Yahweh, I desire that very much [DOU]. With all of my inner being I sing joyfully to you, the all-powerful God.
3 Señor Todopoderoso, mi Dios y mi rey, hasta un gorrión encuentra refugio ahí, y una golondrina construye un nido donde pueda criar a sus polluelos cerca de tu altar.
Even sparrows and swallows have built nests [near your temple, where you protect them] [DOU]; they take care of their young babies near the altars [where people offer sacrifices to] you, who are the commander of the armies of heaven, and my king and my God.
4 ¡Cuán felices son los que viven en tu casa, porque siempre están alabándote! (Selah)
(Happy are/You are pleased with) those who (live/continually worship) in your temple, constantly singing to praise you.
5 Cuán felices son aquellos cuyas fuerzas están en ti, esos que ponen en sus corazones el deseo de peregrinar
Happy are those who [know that] you are the one who causes them to be strong, those who strongly desire to (make the trip/go) to Zion [Hill].
6 Cuando pasen por el valle de lágrimas lo convertirán en cascada de agua; y las lluvias tempranas lo convierten en zona de manantiales.
While they travel through the [dry] Baca Valley, [you cause] it to become a place where there are springs of water, where the rains (in the autumn/before the cold season) fill the valley with pools of water.
7 Ellos van de fuerza en fuerza, y cada uno aparecerá ante Dios en Jerusalén.
[As a result, those who travel through there] become stronger/refreshed [knowing that] they will appear in your presence (on Zion [Hill]/in Jerusalem).
8 Señor, Dios Todopoderoso, por favor, escucha mi oración; escucha, Dios de Jacob. (Selah)
Yahweh, commander of the armies of heaven, listen to my prayer; God, who [is worshiped by us (descendants of] Jacob/Israeli people), hear [IDM] what I am saying!
9 Por favor, Dios, mira a nuestro defensor, mira la cara de tu ungido.
God, be kind to [IDM] our king, the one who protects us [MTY], the one whom you have chosen [MTY] [to rule us].
10 Un día en tus atrios es mejor que mil en cualquier otro lugar. Preferiría permanecer en la casa del Señor siendo portero, que vivir cómodamente en la casa de los malvados.
[For me], spending one day in your temple is better than spending 1,000 days somewhere else; [standing] at the entrance to your temple, [ready to go inside], is better than living in the tents/homes where wicked [people live].
11 Porque el Señor nuestros es nuestro sol y nuestro escudo, y nos da gracia y honor. El señor no retira nada bueno de aquellos que viven con rectitud.
Yahweh our God is [like] the sun [that shines on us] and [like] a shield [that protects us] [MET]; he is kind to [us] and honors [us]. Yahweh does not refuse to give any good thing/blessing to those who do what is right.
12 Señor Todopoderoso, cuán felices son aquellos que confían en ti.
Yahweh, commander of the armies of heaven, (happy are/you are pleased with) those who trust in you!
