Psalms 91

1 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

El que habita en el escondedero del Altísimo, morará bajo la sombra del Omnipotente.

2 I will say of Yahweh, “He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.”

Dirá al SEÑOR: Esperanza mía, y castillo mío; mi Dios, me aseguraré en él.

3 For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence.

Y él te librará del lazo del cazador; de la mortandad que todo asuela.

4 He will cover you with his feathers. Under his wings you will take refuge. His faithfulness is your shield and rampart.

Con su ala te cubrirá, y debajo de sus alas estarás seguro; escudo y adarga es su verdad.

5 You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day,

No tendrás temor de espanto nocturno, ni de saeta que vuele de día;

6 nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that wastes at noonday.

ni de pestilencia que ande en oscuridad, ni de mortandad que destruya al mediodía.

7 A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you.

Caerán a tu lado mil, y diez mil a tu diestra; pero a ti no llegará.

8 You will only look with your eyes, and see the recompense of the wicked.

Ciertamente con tus ojos mirarás, y verás la recompensa de los impíos.

9 Because you have made Yahweh your refuge, and the Most High your dwelling place,

Porque tú, oh SEÑOR, eres mi esperanza; y al Altísimo has puesto por tu habitación,

10 no evil shall happen to you, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling.

no se ordenará para ti mal, ni plaga tocará tu morada.

11 For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways.

Porque a sus ángeles mandará acerca de ti, que te guarden en todos tus caminos.

12 They will bear you up in their hands, so that you won’t dash your foot against a stone.

En las manos te llevarán, para que tu pie no tropiece en piedra.

13 You will tread on the lion and cobra. You will trample the young lion and the serpent underfoot.

Sobre el león y el basilisco pisarás; hollarás al cachorro del león, y al dragón.

14 “Because he has set his love on me, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high, because he has known my name.

Por cuanto en mí ha puesto su voluntad, yo también lo libraré; lo pondré en alto, por cuanto ha conocido mi Nombre.

15 He will call on me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him, and honor him.

Me invocará, y yo le responderé; con él estaré yo en la angustia; lo libraré, y le glorificaré.

16 I will satisfy him with long life, and show him my salvation.”

Lo saciaré de larga vida, y le mostraré mi salud.
