Salmos 141
1 Señor, te he clamado; ven a mi rápidamente; escucha mi voz, cuando llegue a ti.
Yahweh, I call out to you; [please] help me quickly! Listen to me when I am calling to you.
2 Permita que mi oración sea como dulce aroma; y que la elevación de mis manos sea como la ofrenda 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 Oh Señor, vigila mi boca; guarda la puerta de mis labios.
Yahweh, do not allow me to say [MTY] things that are wrong; guard my lips.
4 Guarda mi corazón de desear cualquier cosa mala, o de tomar parte en los pecados de los malhechores con los hombres que hacen mal; y no me dejes participar en banquete de malhechores.
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 los rectos me den castigo; y deja que el hombre temeroso de Dios me ponga en el camino correcto; pero no dejaré que el aceite de los pecadores caiga sobre mi cabeza; cuando hagan mal me entregaré a la oración.
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 Cuando la destrucción llegue a sus jueces junto a la roca, ellos escucharán mis palabras, porque son verdaderas.
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 Nuestros huesos se rompen en la boca del inframundo, como la tierra se rompe con el arado. (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 Pero mis ojos están puestos en ti, oh Señor Dios; mi esperanza está en ti; no dejes que mi alma se entregue a la muerte.
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 la red que me han puesto, y de los designios de los que hacen maldad.
[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 Dejen que los pecadores sean tomados en las redes que ellos mismos han derribado, mientras yo estoy libre.
I desire that wicked [people] will fall into the traps they have set [to catch me] while I escape [from them].
