Salmos 141
1 Salmo de David. JEHOVÁ, á ti he clamado: apresúrate á mí; escucha mi voz, cuando te invocare.
A psalm of David. Lord, I call to you: hasten, to me, attend to my voice, when I call to you.
2 Sea enderezada mi oración delante de ti como un perfume, el don de mis manos como la ofrenda de la tarde.
Let my prayer be presented as incense before you, and my uplifted hands as the evening meal-offering.
3 Pon, oh Jehová, guarda á mi boca: guarda la puerta de mis labios.
Set, O Lord, a watch on my mouth, put a guard on the door of my lips.
4 No dejes se incline mi corazón á cosa mala, á hacer obras impías con los que obran iniquidad, y no coma yo de sus deleites.
Incline not my heart to an evil matter, to busy myself in deeds of wickedness, in company with workers of evil: never may I partake of their dainties.
5 Que el justo me castigue, [será] un favor, y que me reprenda [será] un excelente bálsamo [que] no me herirá la cabeza: así que aun mi oración [tendrán] en sus calamidades.
A wound or reproof from a good person in kindness is oil which my head shall never refuse. In their misfortune my prayer is still with them.
6 Serán derribados en lugares peñascosos sus jueces, y oirán mis palabras, que son suaves.
Abandoned they are to the hands of their judges: they shall learn that my words are true.
7 Como quien hiende y rompe la tierra, son esparcidos nuestros huesos á la boca de la sepultura. (Sheol h7585)
Like stones on a country road cleft and broken so lie our bones scattered for Death to devour. (Sheol h7585)
8 Por tanto á ti, oh Jehová Señor, [miran] mis ojos: en ti he confiado, no desampares mi alma.
But my eyes are turned towards you, O Lord. Do not pour out my life, for in you I take refuge.
9 Guárdame de los lazos que me han tendido, y de los armadijos de los que obran iniquidad.
Keep me safe from the trap they have laid for me, from the snares of the workers of trouble.
10 Caigan los impíos á una en sus redes, mientras yo pasaré adelante.
Into their own nets let wicked people fall; while I pass by in safety.
