When I am afraid, I will put my trust in you.
4 En Dios alabaré su palabra: en Dios he confiado, no temeré lo que la carne me hará.

6 Congréganse, escóndense, ellos miran atentamente mis pisadas esperando mi alma.
They conspire and lurk, watching my steps, they are eager to take my life.
7 ¿Por la iniquidad escaparán ellos? o! Dios, derriba los pueblos con furor.
Shall they escape by iniquity? In anger cast down the peoples, God.
8 Mis huidas has contado tú; pon mis lágrimas en tu odre, ciertamente en tu libro.
You count my wanderings. You put my tears into your bottle. Are not they in your book?
9 Entonces serán vueltos atrás mis enemigos el día que yo clamare: en esto conozco que Dios es por mí.
Then my enemies shall turn back in the day that I call. I know this, that God is for me.

In God, I will praise his word. In Adonai, I will praise his word.
11 En Dios he confiado, no temeré lo que el hombre me hará.
I have put my trust in God. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
12 Sobre mí, o! Dios, están tus votos: alabanzas te pagaré.
Your vows are on me, God. I will give thank offerings to you.
13 Por cuanto has escapado mi vida de la muerte, ciertamente mis pies de caída: para que ande delante de Dios en la luz de los que viven.
For you have delivered my soul from death, and prevented my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living.
