Salmos 141
1 Salmo de David. SEÑOR, a ti he llamado; apresúrate a mí; escucha mi voz, cuando te llamare.
Yahweh, I call out to you; [please] help me quickly! Listen to me when I am calling to you.
2 Sea enderezada mi oración delante de ti como incienso, el don de mis manos como el sacrificio de la tarde.
Accept my prayer as though it were incense [being burned as an offering] [SIM] to you. And accept me while I lift up my hands [to pray] to you like you accept sacrifices [that I offer to you each] evening [SIM].
3 Pon, oh SEÑOR, guarda a mi boca; guarda la puerta de mis labios.
Yahweh, do not allow me to say [MTY] things that are wrong; guard my lips.
4 No inclines mi corazón a cosa mala, a hacer obras con impiedad con los varones que obran iniquidad; y no coma yo de sus deleites.
Prevent me from wanting to do anything that is wrong, and from joining with wicked men when they want to do evil deeds [DOU]. Do not [even] allow me to share in eating delightful food with them!
5 Que me hiera el justo con misericordia, y que me reprenda; y halago de príncipe inicuo no unte mi cabeza; porque aun mi oración será contra sus males.
It is all right if righteous people strike/hit me or rebuke me because they are trying to act kindly toward me [to teach me to do what is right], but I do not want wicked [people] to [honor me by] anointing my head with [olive] oil; I am always praying [that you will punish them because of] the wicked deeds [that they do].
6 Serán derribados de lugares fuertes sus jueces, y oirán mis palabras, que son suaves.
When their rulers are thrown down from the top of rocky cliffs, people will know that what you, Yahweh, said [about them] is true.
7 Como quien hiende y rompe leños en tierra, son esparcidos nuestros huesos a la boca de la sepultura. (Sheol h7585)
Like a log that is split and cut into small pieces [SIM], their shattered bones will be scattered [on the ground] near [other] graves. (Sheol h7585)
8 Por tanto a ti, oh DIOS el Señor, miran mis ojos; en ti he confiado, no desampares mi alma.
But Yahweh God, I [continue to] ask you [to help me]. I ask you to protect me; do not allow me to (die/be killed) [now]!
9 Guárdame de las manos del lazo que me han tendido, y de los lazos de los que obran iniquidad.
[It is as though] people have set traps for me; protect me from falling into those traps, [It is as though] they have spread nets to catch me; keep me from being caught in those nets.
10 Caigan los impíos a una en sus redes, mientras yo pasaré adelante para siempre.
I desire that wicked [people] will fall into the traps they have set [to catch me] while I escape [from them].
