Salmos 41

1 Feliz es el hombre que piensa en los pobres; el Señor será su salvador en el tiempo de angustia.

Unto the end. A Psalm of David himself. Blessed is he who shows understanding toward the needy and the poor. The Lord will deliver him in the evil day.

2 El Señor lo salvará y le dará vida; el Señor lo dejará ser una bendición en la tierra, y no lo entregará en manos de sus enemigos.

May the Lord preserve him and give him life, and make him blessed upon the earth. And may he not hand him over to the will of his adversaries.

3 El Señor será su sostén en su lecho de dolor: por ti todo su dolor se convertirá en fortaleza.

May the Lord bring him help on his bed of sorrow. In his infirmity, you have changed his entire covering.

4 Dije: Señor, ten misericordia de mí; hace bien mi alma, aunque he pecado contra ti.

I said, “O Lord, be merciful to me. Heal my soul, because I have sinned against you.”

5 Mis enemigos dicen mal contra mí. Preguntando ¿Cuándo morirá él, y su nombre llegará a su fin?

My enemies have spoken evils against me. When will he die and his name perish?

6 Si alguien viene a verme, la mentira está en su corazón; guardan en su memoria toda maldad, y al salir a la calle lo hace público en todo lugar.

And when he came in to see me, he was speaking emptiness. His heart gathered iniquity to itself. He went outside, and he was speaking in the same way.

7 Todos mis enemigos murmuran mal de mí, en secreto contra mí piensan mal, diciendo de mi:

All my enemies were whispering against me. They were thinking up evils against me.

8 Tiene una enfermedad maligna, que no lo deja ir; y ahora que ha caído, no volverá a levantarse.

They established an unjust word against me. Will he that sleeps no longer rise again?

9 Incluso mi querido amigo, en quien confiaba. que tomó pan conmigo, se volvió contra mí, alzó contra mí el calcañar.

For even the man of my peace, in whom I hoped, who ate my bread, has greatly supplanted me.

10 Pero tú, oh Señor, ten misericordia de mí, levantándome, para que yo les dé su castigo.

But you, O Lord, have mercy on me, and raise me up again. And I will requite them.

11 En esto veo que tienes placer en mí, porque mi enemigo no me supera.

By this, I knew that you preferred me: because my adversary will not rejoice over me.

12 Y en cuanto a mí, tú eres mi apoyo en mi justicia, dándome un lugar delante de tu rostro para siempre.

But you have sustained me, because of my innocence, and you have confirmed me in your sight in eternity.

13 Que el Señor Dios de Israel sea alabado, por los días eternos y para siempre. Que así sea. Que así sea.

Blessed is the Lord God of Israel, for all generations and even forever. Amen. Amen.
