2 Samuel 22
1 And David spake unto the LORD the words of this song in the day that the LORD delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul:
Y habló David a Jehová las palabras de este cántico, el día que Jehová le libró de la mano de todos sus enemigos, y de la mano de Saul, y dijo:
2 and he said, The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer, even mine;
Jehová es mi roca, y mi fortaleza, y mi librador.
3 The God of my rock, in him will I trust; my shield and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge; my saviour, thou savest me from violence.
Dios es mi peñasco, en él confiaré: mi escudo, y el cuerno de mi salud: mi fortaleza, y mi refugio: mi salvador, que me librarás de violencia.
4 I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
A Jehová digno de ser loado invocaré, y seré salvo de mis enemigos.
5 For the waves of death compassed me, the floods of ungodliness made me afraid.
Cuando me cercaron ondas de muerte, y arroyos de iniquidad me asombraron;
Cuando las cuerdas del sepulcro me ciñeron, y los lazos de muerte me tomaron descuidado; (Sheol h7585)
7 In my distress I called upon the LORD, yea, I called unto my God: and he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry [came] into his ears.
Cuando tuve angustia, invoqué a Jehová, y clamé a mi Dios, y él desde su templo oyó mi voz, mi clamor llegó a sus oídos.
8 Then the earth shook and trembled, the foundations of heaven moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.
La tierra se removió, y tembló: los fundamentos de los cielos fueron movidos, y se estremecieron; porque él se airó.
9 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
Subió humo de sus narices, y de su boca fuego consumidor, por el cual se encendieron carbones.
10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and thick darkness was under his feet.
Y abajó los cielos y descendió: una oscuridad debajo de sus pies.
11 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
Subió sobre el querubim, y voló: aparecióse sobre las alas del viento.
12 And he made darkness pavilions round about him, gathering of waters, thick clouds of the skies.
Puso tinieblas al derredor de sí como por cabañas: aguas negras, y espesas nubes.
13 At the brightness before him coals of fire were kindled.
Del resplandor de su presencia se encendieron ascuas ardientes.
14 The LORD thundered from heaven, and the Most High uttered his voice.
Tronó de los cielos Jehová, y el Altísimo dio su voz.
15 And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.
Arrojó saetas, y desbaratólos: relampagueó, y los consumió.
16 Then the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were laid bare, by the rebuke of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
Entonces aparecieron los manaderos de la mar, y los fundamentos del mundo fueron descubiertos por la reprensión de Jehová, por la respiración del resuello de su nariz.
17 He sent from on high, he took me; he drew me out of many waters;
Extendió su mano de lo alto, y arrebatóme, y sacóme de las muchas aguas.
18 He delivered me from my strong enemy, from them that hated me; for they were too mighty for me.
Libróme de fuertes enemigos, de los que me aborrecían, los cuales eran más fuertes que yo.
19 They came upon me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was my stay.
Los cuales en el día de mi calamidad me tomaron descuidado: mas Jehová fue mi bordón.
20 He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
Sacóme a anchura; me libró, porque puso su voluntad en mí.
21 The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
Pagóme Jehová conforme a mi justicia: y conforme a la limpieza de mis manos me dio la paga.
22 For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
Porque yo guardé los caminos de Jehová: y no me aparté impíamente de mi Dios.
23 For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them.
Porque delante de mí tengo todas sus ordenanzas: y sus fueros, no me retiraré de ellos.
24 I was also perfect toward him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity.
Y fui perfecto con él, y me guardé de mi iniquidad.
25 Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eyesight.
Y pagóme Jehová conforme a mi justicia: y conforme a mi limpieza delante de sus ojos.
26 With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, with the perfect man thou wilt shew thyself perfect;
Con el bueno eres bueno, y con el valeroso perfecto, eres perfecto.
27 With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the perverse thou wilt shew thyself froward.
Con el limpio eres limpio: mas con el perverso, eres perverso.
28 And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thine eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down.
Y salvas al pueblo pobre: mas tus ojos, sobre los altivos, para abatirlos.
29 For thou art my lamp, O LORD: and the LORD will lighten my darkness.
Porque tú eres mi lámpara, oh Jehová: Jehová da luz a mis tinieblas.
30 For by thee I run upon a troop: by my God do I leap over a wall.
Porque en ti romperé ejércitos, y en mi Dios saltaré las murallas.
31 As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried; he is a shield unto all them that trust in him.
Dios, perfecto su camino: la palabra de Jehová purificada, escudo es de todos los que en él esperan.
32 For who is God, save the LORD? and who is a rock, save our God?
Porque ¿qué Dios hay sino Jehová? ¿O quién es fuerte sino nuestro Dios?
33 God is my strong fortress: and he guideth the perfect in his way.
Dios es el que con virtud me corrobora, y el que escombra mi camino.
34 He maketh his feet like hinds’ [feet]: and setteth me upon my high places.
El que hace mis pies como de ciervas, y el que me asienta en mis alturas.
35 He teacheth my hands to war; so that mine arms do bend a bow of brass.
El que enseña mis manos para la pelea: y el que da que yo quiebre con mis brazos el arco de acero.
36 Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy gentleness hath made me great.
Tú me diste el escudo de tu salud, y tu benignidad me ha multiplicado.
37 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, and my feet have not slipped.
Tú ensanchaste mis pasos debajo de mí, para que no titubeasen mis rodillas.
38 I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them; neither did I turn again till they were consumed.
Perseguiré mis enemigos, y quebrantarlos he, y no me volveré hasta que los acabe.
39 And I have consumed them, and smitten them through, that they cannot arise; yea, they are fallen under my feet.
Consumirlos he, y herirlos he; que no se levantarán. Y caerán debajo de mis pies.
40 For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.
Ceñísteme de fortaleza para la batalla, y postraste debajo de mí los que contra mí se levantaron.
41 Thou hast also made mine enemies turn their backs unto me, that I might cut off them that hate me.
Tú me diste la cerviz de mis enemigos, de mis aborrecedores, y que yo los talase.
42 They looked, but there was none to save; even unto the LORD, but he answered them not.
Miraron, y no hubo quien los librase; a Jehová, mas no les respondió.
43 Then did I beat them small as the dust of the earth, I did stamp them as the mire of the streets, and did spread them abroad.
Yo los quebrantaré como a polvo de la tierra: como a lodo de las plazas los desmenuzaré, y los disiparé.
44 Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people; thou hast kept me to be the head of the nations: a people whom I have not known shall serve me.
Tú me libraste de contiendas de pueblos: tú me guardaste para que fuese cabeza de gentes: pueblos que no conocía, me sirvieron.
45 The strangers shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me.
Los extraños titubeaban a mí; en oyendo me obedecían.
46 The strangers shall fade away, and shall come trembling out of their close places.
Los extraños se desleían, y temblaban en sus encerramientos.
47 The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation:
Viva Jehová, y sea bendita mi roca: sea ensalzado el Dios, que es la roca de mi salvamento.
48 Even the God that executeth vengeance for me, and bringeth down peoples under me,
El Dios, que me ha dado venganzas, y sujeta los pueblos debajo de mí,
49 And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: yea, thou liftest me up above them that rise up against me: thou deliverest me from the violent man.
Que me saca de entre mis enemigos: tú me sacaste en alto de entre los que se levantaron contra mí: librásteme del varón de iniquidades.
50 Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the nations, and will sing praises unto thy name.
Por tanto yo te confesaré en las gentes, oh Jehová, y cantaré a tu nombre.
51 Great deliverance giveth he to his king: and sheweth lovingkindness to his anointed, to David and to his seed, for evermore.
El que engrandece las saludes de su rey: y el que hace misericordia a su ungido David, y a su simiente para siempre.
