Salmo 41 (40)

Sé que me quieres

41 Al maestro del coro. Salmo de David.
Feliz quien atiende al desvalido,
el Señor lo salvará en el día adverso.
El Señor lo protegerá,
le hará vivir feliz en esta tierra
y no lo dejará a merced del enemigo.
El Señor lo conforta en el lecho del dolor,
le devuelve la salud si está postrado.
Yo dije: “Señor, apiádate de mí;
cúrame, pues he pecado contra ti”.
Mis enemigos auguran mi desgracia:
“¿Cuándo morirá y desaparecerá su nombre?”.
Si uno viene a verme, habla fingiendo,
guarda para sí el engaño y al salir fuera lo cuenta.
Cuantos me odian murmuran juntos de mí,
maquinan contra mí una desgracia:
“Un mal devastador lo invade”,
se acostó y no volverá a levantarse.
10 Hasta mi íntimo amigo en quien confiaba,
el que comía de mi pan, me ha traicionado.
11 Pero tú, Señor, apiádate de mí,
restabléceme, que yo les daré su merecido.
12 Por esto sé que me quieres:
mi enemigo no puede cantar victoria.
13 Por mi rectitud tú me sostienes
y por siempre me mantienes ante ti.
14 ¡Bendito sea el Señor, Dios de Israel,
desde siempre y para siempre!
¡Amén, amén!

O Lord, Be Gracious to Me

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

41 (A)Blessed is the one who considers the poor![a]
    (B)In the day of trouble the Lord delivers him;
the Lord protects him and keeps him alive;
    he is called blessed in the land;
    you (C)do not give him up to the will of his enemies.
The Lord sustains him on his sickbed;
    in his illness you restore him to full health.[b]

As for me, I said, “O Lord, (D)be gracious to me;
    (E)heal me,[c] for I have sinned against you!”
My enemies say of me in malice,
    “When will he die, and his name perish?”
And when one comes to see me, (F)he utters empty words,
    while his heart gathers iniquity;
    when he goes out, he tells it abroad.
All who hate me whisper together about me;
    they imagine the worst for me.[d]

They say, “A deadly thing is poured out[e] on him;
    he will not rise again from where he lies.”
Even my (G)close friend in whom I trusted,
    who (H)ate my bread, has lifted his heel against me.
10 But you, O Lord, be gracious to me,
    and raise me up, that I may repay them!

11 By this I know that (I)you delight in me:
    my enemy will not shout in triumph over me.
12 But (J)you have upheld me because of (K)my integrity,
    and (L)set me in your presence (M)forever.

13 (N)Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel,
    from everlasting to everlasting!
Amen and Amen.
