Salmos 91

1 EL que habita al abrigo del Altísimo, morará bajo la sombra del Omnipotente.

Praise of a Song, by David. He that dwells in the help of the Highest, shall sojourn under the shelter of the God of heaven.

2 Diré yo á Jehová: Esperanza mía, y castillo mío; mi Dios, en él confiaré.

He shall say to the Lord, You are my helper and my refuge: my God; I will hope in him.

3 Y él te librará del lazo del cazador: de la peste destruidora.

For he shall deliver you from the snare of the hunters, from [every] troublesome matter.

4 Con sus plumas te cubrirá, y debajo de sus alas estarás seguro: escudo y adarga es su verdad.

He shall overshadow you with his shoulders, and you shall trust under his wings: his truth shall cover you with a shield.

5 No tendrás temor de espanto nocturno, ni de saeta que vuele de día;

You shall not be afraid of terror by night; nor of the arrow flying by day;

6 Ni de pestilencia que ande en oscuridad, ni de mortandad que en medio del día destruya.

[nor] of the [evil] thing that walks in darkness; [nor] of calamity, and the evil spirit at noon-day.

7 Caerán á tu lado mil, y diez mil á tu diestra: [mas] á ti no llegará.

A thousand shall fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.

8 Ciertamente con tus ojos mirarás, y verás la recompensa de los impíos.

Only with your eyes shall you observe and see the reward of sinners.

9 Porque tú has puesto á Jehová, [que es] mi esperanza, al Altísimo por tu habitación,

For you, O Lord, are my hope: you, my soul, have made the Most High your refuge.

10 No te sobrevendrá mal, ni plaga tocará tu morada.

No evils shall come upon you, and no scourge shall draw near to your dwelling.

11 Pues que á sus ángeles mandará acerca de ti, que te guarden en todos tus caminos.

For he shall give his angels charge concerning you, to keep you in all your ways.

12 En las manos te llevarán, porque tu pie no tropiece en piedra.

They shall bear you up on their hands, lest at any time you dash your foot against a stone.

13 Sobre el león y el basilisco pisarás; hollarás al cachorro del león y al dragón.

You shall tread on the asp and basilisk: and you shall trample on the lion and dragon.

14 Por cuanto en mí ha puesto su voluntad, yo también lo libraré: pondrélo en alto, por cuanto ha conocido mi nombre.

For he has hoped in me, and I will deliver him: I will protect him, because he has known my name.

15 Me invocará, y yo le responderé: con él estaré yo en la angustia: lo libraré, y le glorificaré.

He shall call upon me, and I will listen to him: I am with him in affliction; and I will deliver him, and glorify him.

16 Saciarélo de larga vida, y mostraréle mi salud.

I will satisfy him with length of days, and show him my salvation.
