Salmos 7
1 Sigaión de David, que cantó al SEÑOR sobre las palabras de Cus, hijo de Benjamín. SEÑOR Dios mío, en ti he confiado; sálvame de todos los que me persiguen, y líbrame;
A meditation by David, which he sang to Yahweh, concerning the words of Cush, the Benjamite. Yahweh, my God, I take refuge in you. Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me,
2 no sea que arrebaten mi alma, como león que despedaza, sin que haya quien libre.
lest they tear apart my soul like a lion, ripping it in pieces, while there is no one to deliver.
3 SEÑOR Dios mío, si yo he hecho esto, si hay en mis manos iniquidad;
Yahweh, my God, if I have done this, if there is iniquity in my hands,
4 si di mal pago al pacífico conmigo, que escapé mi perseguidor sin pago.
if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me (yes, I have plundered him who without cause was my adversary),
5 Persiga el enemigo mi alma, y alcáncela; y pise en tierra mi vida, y mi honra ponga en el polvo. (Selah)
let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it; yes, let him tread my life down to the earth, and lay my glory in the dust. (Selah)
6 Levántate, oh SEÑOR, con tu furor; álzate a causa de las iras de mis angustiadores, y despierta en favor mío el juicio que mandaste.
Arise, Yahweh, in your anger. Lift up yourself against the rage of my adversaries. Awake for me. You have commanded judgment.
7 Y te rodeará ayuntamiento de pueblos; por causa pues de él vuélvete en alto.
Let the congregation of the peoples surround you. Rule over them on high.
8 El SEÑOR juzgará los pueblos; júzgame, oh SEÑOR, conforme a mi justicia y conforme a mi integridad.
Yahweh administers judgment to the peoples. Judge me, Yahweh, according to my righteousness, and to my integrity that is in me.
9 Consuma ahora mal a los malos, y establece al justo; pues el Dios justo es el que prueba los corazones y los riñones.
Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous; their minds and hearts are searched by the righteous God.
10 Mi escudo es en Dios, el que salva a los rectos de corazón.
My shield is with God, who saves the upright in heart.
11 Dios es el que juzga al justo; y Dios está airado contra los impíos todos los días.
God is a righteous judge, yes, a God who has indignation every day.
12 Si no se volviere, él afilará su espada; armado tiene ya su arco, y lo ha preparado.
If a man doesn’t repent, he will sharpen his sword; he has bent and strung his bow.
13 Asimismo ha aparejado para él armas de muerte; ha labrado sus saetas para los que persiguen.
He has also prepared for himself the instruments of death. He makes ready his flaming arrows.
14 He aquí ha tenido parto de iniquidad; concibió de su propio trabajo, y dio a luz mentira.
Behold, he travails with iniquity. Yes, he has conceived mischief, and brought out falsehood.
15 Pozo ha cavado, y lo ha ahondado; y en la fosa que hizo caerá.
He has dug a hole, and has fallen into the pit which he made.
16 Su trabajo se tornará sobre su cabeza, y su agravio descenderá sobre su mollera.
The trouble he causes shall return to his own head. His violence shall come down on the crown of his own head.
17 Alabaré yo al SEÑOR conforme a su justicia, y cantaré al nombre del SEÑOR el Altísimo.
I will give thanks to Yahweh according to his righteousness, and will sing praise to the name of Yahweh Most High.
