Psalms 28

1 By David. To you, LORD, I call. My rock, do not be deaf to me, lest, if you are silent to me, I would become like those who go down into the pit.

De David. A Ti, Yahvé, clamo, roca mía, no te muestres sordo conmigo; no sea que si Tú me desoyes me asemeje yo a los que bajan al sepulcro.

2 Hear the voice of my petitions, when I cry to you, when I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.

Escucha la voz de mi súplica cuando clamo a Ti, mientras levanto mis manos hacia el interior de tu Santuario.

3 Do not draw me away with the wicked, with the workers of iniquity who speak peace with their neighbors, but mischief is in their hearts.

No me quites de en medio con los impíos y los obradores de iniquidad, que hablan paz a su prójimo y maquinan el mal en su corazón.

4 Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings. Give them according to the operation of their hands. Bring back on them what they deserve.

Retribúyeles conforme a sus obras y a la malicia de sus maquinaciones; págales según su conducta, dales su merecido.

5 Because they do not respect the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he will break them down and not build them up.

Porque no paran mientes en los hechos de Yahvé, ni en las obras de sus manos. ¡Destrúyalos Él y no los restablezca!

6 Blessed be the LORD, because he has heard the voice of my petitions.

Bendito sea Yahvé, porque oyó la voz de mi súplica.

7 The LORD is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank him.

Yahvé es mi fortaleza y mi escudo; en Él confió mi corazón y fui socorrido. Por eso mi corazón salta de gozo y lo alabo con mi cántico.

8 The LORD is their strength. He is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.

Yahvé es la fuerza de su pueblo, y el alcázar de salvación para su ungido.

9 Save your people, and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever.

Salva a tu pueblo y bendice a tu heredad; apaciéntalos y condúcelos para siempre.
