Salmos 38

1 Jehová, no me reprendas con tu furor, ni me castigues con tu ira.

A Psalm. Of David. To keep in memory. O Lord, be not bitter with me in your wrath; let not your hand be on me in the heat of your passion.

2 Porque tus saetas descendieron en mí; y sobre mí ha descendido tu mano.

For your arrows have gone into my flesh, and I am crushed under the weight of your hand.

3 No hay sanidad en mi carne a causa de tu ira: no hay paz en mis huesos a causa de mi pecado.

My flesh is wasted because of your wrath; and there is no peace in my bones because of my sin.

4 Porque mis iniquidades han pasado sobre mi cabeza: como carga pesada, se han agravado sobre mí.

For my crimes have gone over my head; they are like a great weight which is more than my strength.

5 Pudriéronse, y corrompiéronse mis llagas a causa de mi locura.

My wounds are poisoned and evil-smelling, because of my foolish behaviour.

6 Estoy encorvado, estoy humillado en gran manera: todo el día ando enlutado.

I am troubled, I am made low; I go weeping all the day.

7 Porque mis caderas están llenas de ardor: y no hay sanidad en mi carne.

For my body is full of burning; all my flesh is unhealthy.

8 Estoy debilitado y molido en gran manera: rugiendo estoy a causa del alboroto de mi corazón.

I am feeble and crushed down; I gave a cry like a lion because of the grief in my heart.

9 Señor, delante de ti están todos mis deseos: y mi suspiro no te es oculto.

Lord, all my desire is before you; my sorrow is not kept secret from you.

10 Mi corazón está rodeado, me ha dejado mi vigor; y la luz de mis ojos, aun ellos no están conmigo.

My heart goes out in pain, my strength is wasting away; as for the light of my eyes, it is gone from me.

11 Mis amigos, y mis compañeros, se quitaron de delante de mi plaga: y mis cercanos se pusieron lejos.

My lovers and my friends keep away from my disease; my relations keep far away.

12 Y los que buscaban a mi alma armaron lazos: y los que buscaban mi mal, hablaban iniquidades: y todo el día meditaban fraudes.

Those who have a desire to take my life put nets for me; those who are designing my destruction say evil things against me, all the day their minds are full of deceit.

13 Y yo, como sordo, no oía: y como un mudo, que no abre su boca.

But I kept my ears shut like a man without hearing; like a man without a voice, never opening his mouth.

14 Y fui como un hombre que no oye: y que no hay en su boca reprensiones.

So I was like a man whose ears are shut, and in whose mouth there are no sharp words.

15 Porque a ti Jehová esperaba: tú responderás Jehová Dios mío.

In you, O Lord, is my hope: you will give me an answer, O Lord, my God.

16 Porque decía: Que no se alegren de mí: cuando mi pie resbalaba se engrandecían sobre mí.

I said, Let them not be glad over me; when my foot is moved, let them not be lifted up with pride against me.

17 Porque yo aparejado estoy a cojear: y mi dolor está delante de mí continuamente.

My feet are near to falling, and my sorrow is ever before me.

18 Por tanto denunciaré mi maldad: congojarme he por mi pecado.

I will make clear my wrongdoing, with sorrow in my heart for my sin.

19 Porque mis enemigos son vivos y fuertes: y hánse aumentado los que me aborrecen sin causa:

But they are strong who have hate for me without cause: those who are against me falsely are increased in numbers.

20 Y pagando mal por bien me son contrarios, por seguir yo lo bueno.

They give me back evil for good; they are my haters because I go after the thing which is right.

21 No me desampares, o! Jehová; Dios mío, no te alejes de mí.

Do not give me up, O Lord; O my God, be near to me.

22 Apresúrate a ayudarme, Señor, que eres mi salud.

Come quickly to give me help, O Lord, my salvation.
