< Salmos 80 >

1 Oh Pastor de Israel, escucha. Tú, que pastoreas a José como un rebaño, Tú, que estás entronizado entre querubines, ¡Resplandece!
[Yahweh], you [who lead us like] a shepherd leads his flock [of sheep], listen to us Israeli people. You sit on your throne [in the Very Holy Place in the temple], above the [carvings of] winged creatures.
2 Delante de Efraín, de Benjamín y de Manasés, Despierta tu poder Y ven a salvarnos.
Show yourself to [the people of the tribes of] Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh! Show us that you are powerful and come and rescue us!
3 Restáuranos, oh ʼElohim. Haz resplandecer tu rostro, Y seremos salvos.
God, cause our nation to be strong like it was before; be kind to us [IDM] in order that we may be saved [from our enemies.]
4 Oh Yavé, ʼElohim de las huestes, ¿Hasta cuándo estarás airado contra la oración de tu pueblo?
Yahweh, you who are the commander of the armies of heaven, how long will you be angry with us, your people, when we pray to you?
5 Los alimentaste con pan de lágrimas. Les diste a beber lágrimas en abundancia.
[It is as though] the only food and drink that you have given us is a cup full of our tears!
6 Nos conviertes en escarnio de nuestros vecinos, Y nuestros enemigos se burlan de nosotros.
You have allowed the people-groups that surround us to fight with [each other to decide which part of our land each of them will take]; our enemies laugh at us.
7 Oh ʼElohim de las huestes, restáuranos. Haz resplandecer tu rostro, Y seremos salvos.
God, commander of the armies of heaven, cause our nation to be strong like it was before! Be kind to us in order that we may be saved!
8 Trajiste una vid de Egipto. Expulsaste las naciones Y la plantaste.
[Our ancestors were like] a grapevine [MET] that you brought out of Egypt; you expelled the other people-groups [from this land], and you put your people in their land.
9 Limpiaste delante de ella. Desarrolló profunda raíz y llenó la tierra.
[Like people] clear ground to plant a grapevine [MET], [you cleared out the people who were living in this land for us to live in it]. [Like] the roots of a grapevine go deep down into the ground and spread [MET], [you enabled our ancestors to prosper and start living in towns all over this land].
10 Las montañas fueron cubiertas con su sombra, Y con sus ramas los cedros de ʼElohim.
[Like huge] grapevines cover the hills with their shade and their branches are taller than big cedar [trees] [MET, HYP],
11 Extendió sus ramas hasta el mar Y hasta el río sus retoños.
[your people ruled all of Canaan], from the [Mediterranean] Sea [in the west] to the [Euphrates] River [in the east].
12 ¿Por qué derribaste sus cercas De modo que recogen sus frutos todos los que pasan por el camino?
So why have you abandoned us and [allowed our enemies to] tear down our walls [RHQ]? [You are like] someone who tears down the fences [around his vineyard], with the result that all [the people] who pass by [can] steal the grapes,
13 El jabalí la destroza, Y las bestias del campo la devoran.
and wild pigs [can] trample [the vines], and wild animals [can also] eat [the grapes].
14 Oh ʼElohim de las huestes, vuelve, te rogamos. Mira desde el cielo, considera, Y cuida esta viña.
You who are the commander of the armies of heaven, (turn to/stop abandoning) us! Look down from heaven and see [what is happening to] us! Come and rescue [us who are like] [MET] your grapevine,
15 La cepa que plantó tu mano derecha Y la rama que fortaleciste para Ti
who are [like] the young vine that you [SYN] planted and caused to grow!
16 Está quemada con fuego y cortada. Perezcan por la reprensión de tu rostro.
Our enemies have torn down and burned everything in our land; look at them angrily and get rid of them!
17 Que tu mano sea sobre el varón de tu mano derecha, Sobre el Hijo de Hombre que para Ti fortaleciste.
But strengthen [us] people whom you have chosen [IDM], [us] Israeli people whom you [previously] caused to be very strong.
18 Así no nos apartaremos de Ti. Revívemos e invocaremos tu Nombre.
When you do that, we will never turn away from you again; (revive us/cause us to be again like we were previously), and [then] we will praise/worship you.
19 Oh Yavé, ʼElohim de las huestes, restáuranos. Que tu rostro resplandezca, Y seremos salvos.
Yahweh, commander of the armies of heaven, restore us; be kind to us in order that we may be rescued [from our enemies]!
