Salmos 89

1 Mi canción será de las misericordias del Señor para siempre: con mi boca haré que su fe sea clara para todas las generaciones.

Yahweh, I will sing forever about the ways you faithfully love me; people not yet born will hear that you faithfully [do all that you have promised].

2 Porque has dicho: La misericordia se fortalecerá para siempre; mi fe será inmutable en los cielos.

I will tell people that you will faithfully love us forever, and that your being faithful [to do what you have promised] is as permanent as the sky.

3 He hecho un acuerdo con el hombre de mi selección, he hecho un juramento a David mi siervo;

Yahweh said, “I have made an agreement with David, whom I chose [to serve me]. I have made this solemn (agreement with/promise to) him:

4 Haré que tu semilla continúe para siempre, tu reino será fuerte por todas las generaciones. (Selah)

‘I will enable various ones of your descendants to always be kings; the line of kings descended from you [MTY] will never end.’”

5 En el cielo, alaben tus maravillas, oh Señor; y tu fe inmutable entre los santos.

Yahweh, I desire that all [those beings who are in] [MTY] heaven will praise you for the wonderful things that you do, and that all your holy angels will sing about how you faithfully [do what you promise].

6 Porque ¿quién está en los cielos en comparación con el Señor? ¿Quién es como el Señor entre los hijos de los dioses?

There is no one [RHQ] in heaven who can be compared with you, Yahweh. There are no angels [RHQ] in heaven who are equal to you.

7 Dios es muy temible entre los santos, y honrado sobre todos los que están a su alrededor.

When your holy angels gather together, they declare that you must be revered; they say that you are more awesome than all the angels that surround your throne!

8 Oh Señor Dios de los ejércitos, ¿quién es tan fuerte como tú, oh Jah? y tu fe te rodea.

O Yahweh, God Almighty, there is no one [RHQ] who is powerful like you are; your faithfully doing [all that you promise] is [like a cloak that] [MET] [always] surrounds you.

9 Tú gobiernas el mar en tormenta; cuando sus olas están turbulentas, tú las calmas.

You rule over the powerful seas; when their waves rise up, you calm them.

10 Rahab fue aplastado por ti como un herido hasta la muerte; con tu brazo fuerte hechas a huir a todos tus enemigos.

You are the one who crushed [and killed the great sea monster named] Rahab. You [defeated and] scattered your enemies with your great power [MTY].

The heavens are yours, and the earth is yours; and everything on the earth is yours, because you created it all.

12 Tú has hecho el norte y el sur; Tabor y Hermón están sonando con alegría a tu nombre.

You created [everything from] the north to the south. Tabor [Mountain] and Hermon [Mountain] joyfully praise you [MTY].

13 El tuyo es un brazo de poder; fuerte es tu mano y exaltada tu diestra.

(You/Your arms) are very powerful; (you/your hands) are extremely strong.

14 La sede de tu reino reposa sobre la justicia y el derecho de juzgar; misericordia y buena fe están delante de tu faz.

(Your rule [MTY] over us is based on/As you rule over us, you are always) treating people fairly and justly, and on/are always faithfully loving us and doing [what you promised].

15 Bienaventuradas las personas que tienen conocimiento de aclamarte: la luz de tu rostro, oh Señor, brillará en su camino.

Yahweh, happy are the people who worship you with joyful shouts, who live knowing that you are always watching over them.

16 En tu nombre tendrán alegría todo el día; en tu justicia serán ensalzados.

Long ago you spoke in a vision to one of your servants/prophets, saying, “I have helped a famous soldier; I chose him from among all the people to be a king.

That man is David, the one who will serve me [faithfully], and I anointed him with sacred olive oil [to make him king].

21 Mi mano será su apoyo; mi brazo le dará fuerza.

I [MTY] will always strengthen him; with my power [MTY] I will make him strong.

22 El engaño de los que están contra él no lo vencerá; él no será perturbado por los hijos del mal.

23 Tendré a los que están contra él quebrados delante de él, y sus enemigos serán aplastados bajo mis golpes.

I will crush his enemies in front of him and get rid of those who hate him.

24 Pero mi fe y mi misericordia estarán con él; y en mi nombre se levantará su poder.

32 Entonces les enviaré castigo por su pecado; mi vara será la recompensa de su maldad.

I will punish them severely [MTY] and cause them to suffer for doing wrong.

33 Pero no quitaré mi misericordia de él, ni faltaré a mi fidelidad hacia el.

39 Has hecho que tú acuerdo con tu sirviente no tenga ningún efecto: no has tenido respeto por su corona, ha bajado hasta la tierra.

[It seems that] you have broken the agreement that you made with your servant, [David]; it seems as though you [have signaled that he is no longer the king by] throwing his crown into the dust/dirt.
