< Salmos 41 >
1 Bienaventurado el que entiende sobre el pobre; en el día malo le libre Jehová.
Blessed is he that considers the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
2 Jehová le guarde, y le dé vida; sea bienaventurado en la tierra, y no le entregues a la voluntad de sus enemigos.
The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed on the earth: and you will not deliver him to the will of his enemies.
3 Jehová le sustentará sobre la cama de dolor; toda su cama revolviste en su enfermedad.
The LORD will strengthen him on the bed of languishing: you will make all his bed in his sickness.
4 Yo dije: Jehová, ten misericordia de mí; sana a mi alma, porque he pecado contra ti.
I said, LORD, be merciful to me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against you.
5 Mis enemigos dicen mal de mí: ¿Cuándo morirá, y perecerá su nombre?
My enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?
6 Y si me venía a ver, hablaba mentira: su corazón le amontonaba iniquidad: salido fuera, hablaba.
And if he come to see me, he speaks vanity: his heart gathers iniquity to itself; when he goes abroad, he tells it.
7 Congregados murmuraban contra mí todos los que me aborrecían; contra mí pensaban mal para mí.
All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.
8 Cosa pestilencial, dicen, se ha pegado en él; y el que cayó en cama, no volverá a levantarse.
An evil disease, say they, sticks fast to him: and now that he lies he shall rise up no more.
9 Aun el varón de mi paz, en quien confiaba; el que comía mi pan, engrandeció contra mí el calcañar.
Yes, my own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.
10 Mas tú Jehová, ten misericordia de mí, y házme levantar; y pagárles he.
But you, O LORD, be merciful to me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.
11 En esto conocí que te he agradado, porque mi enemigo no triunfará contra mí.
By this I know that you favor me, because my enemy does not triumph over me.
12 Y yo en mi integridad me has sustentado: y me has hecho estar delante de ti para siempre.
And as for me, you uphold me in my integrity, and set me before your face for ever.
13 Bendito sea Jehová, el Dios de Israel, de siglo a siglo. Amén, y Amén.
Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
