Salmos 56

1 Ten piedad de mí, oh Dios, porque el hombre está intentando destruirme; todos los días hace crueles ataques en mi contra.

To the chief music-maker; put to Jonath elem rehokim. Of David. Michtam. When the Philistines took him in Gath. Have mercy on me, O God, for man is attempting my destruction; every day he makes cruel attacks against me.

2 Mis enemigos están siempre listos para darme fin; muchos son los que me atacan con altanería.

My haters are ever ready to put an end to me; great numbers are lifting themselves up against me.

3 En el tiempo de mi temor, confío en ti.

In the time of my fear, I will have faith in you.

4 En Dios daré alabanza a su palabra; en Dios he puesto mi esperanza; No tendré miedo; qué puede hacerme el hombre?

In God will I give praise to his word; in God have I put my hope; I will have no fear of what flesh may do to me.

5 Todos los días me hieren con palabras; todos sus pensamientos están en mi contra para mal.

Every day they make wrong use of my words; all their thoughts are against me for evil.

6 Se juntan, esperan en lugares secretos, toman nota de mis pasos, esperando el momento de matarme.

They come together, they are waiting in secret places, they take note of my steps, they are waiting for my soul.

7 Por su propia maldad no se librarán del castigo. En tu ira, oh Dios, que los pueblos sean humillados.

By evil-doing they will not get free from punishment. In wrath, O God, let the peoples be made low.

8 Tu llevas en cuenta mis huidas; tú recoges cada una de mis lágrimas; ¿no están en tu registro?

You have seen my wanderings; put the drops from my eyes into your bottle; are they not in your record?

9 Cuando envío mi clamor a ti, mis enemigos serán vueltos atrás; Estoy seguro de esto, porque Dios está conmigo.

When I send up my cry to you, my haters will be turned back; I am certain of this, for God is with me.

10 En Dios daré alabanza a su palabra; en el Señor daré alabanza a su palabra.

In God will I give praise to his word; in the Lord will I give praise to his word.

11 En Dios he puesto mi esperanza, no tendré temor; que puede hacerme el hombre?

In God have I put my hope, I will have no fear of what man may do to me.

12 Guardo el recuerdo de mi deuda contigo, oh Dios; Te daré las ofrendas de alabanza.

I keep the memory of my debt to you, O God; I will give you the offerings of praise.

13 Porque has librado mi alma del poder de la muerte; y que mis pies cayeran, para poder estar caminando delante de Dios en la luz de la vida.

Because you have taken my soul from the power of death; and kept my feet from falling, so that I may be walking before God in the light of life.
