Salmos 56
Nueva Biblia de las Américas
Salmo 56
Oración de confianza y gratitud
Para el director del coro; según la tonada de «La paloma silenciosa de los que están lejos». Mictam de David cuando los filisteos lo prendieron en Gat.
56 Ten piedad de mí, oh Dios, porque el hombre me ha pisoteado(A);
Me oprime combatiéndome todo el día(B).
2 Mis enemigos me han pisoteado(C) todo el día,
Porque muchos son los que con soberbia pelean contra mí(D).
3 El día en que temo(E),
Yo en Ti confío(F).
4 En Dios, cuya palabra alabo(G),
En Dios he confiado, no temeré.
¿Qué puede hacerme el hombre(H)?
5 Todo el día pervierten mis palabras(I);
Todos sus pensamientos contra mí son para mal(J).
6 Atacan, se esconden(K),
Espían mis pasos(L),
Como esperando para quitarme la vida(M).
7 Por causa de la iniquidad, arrójalos(N),
En Tu ira humilla a los pueblos, oh Dios(O).
8 ¶Tú has tomado en cuenta mi vida errante(P);
Pon mis lágrimas(Q) en Tu frasco;
¿Acaso no están en Tu libro(R)?
9 Entonces mis enemigos retrocederán(S) el día en que yo te invoque(T).
Esto sé: que Dios está a favor mío(U).
10 En Dios, cuya palabra alabo,
En el Señor, cuya palabra honro;
11 En Dios he confiado, no temeré.
¿Qué puede hacerme el hombre?
12 Están sobre mí, oh Dios, los votos que te hice(V);
Ofrendas de acción de gracias te ofreceré.
13 Pues Tú has librado mi alma de la muerte(W),
Y mis pies de tropiezo(X),
Para que yo pueda andar delante de Dios(Y)
En la luz de la vida(Z).
Psalm 56
New International Version
Psalm 56[a]
For the director of music. To the tune of “A Dove on Distant Oaks.” Of David. A miktam.[b] When the Philistines had seized him in Gath.
1 Be merciful to me,(A) my God,
for my enemies are in hot pursuit;(B)
all day long they press their attack.(C)
2 My adversaries pursue me all day long;(D)
in their pride many are attacking me.(E)
3 When I am afraid,(F) I put my trust in you.(G)
4 In God, whose word I praise—(H)
in God I trust and am not afraid.(I)
What can mere mortals do to me?(J)
5 All day long they twist my words;(K)
all their schemes are for my ruin.
6 They conspire,(L) they lurk,
they watch my steps,(M)
hoping to take my life.(N)
7 Because of their wickedness do not[c] let them escape;(O)
in your anger, God, bring the nations down.(P)
8 Record my misery;
list my tears on your scroll[d](Q)—
are they not in your record?(R)
9 Then my enemies will turn back(S)
when I call for help.(T)
By this I will know that God is for me.(U)
10 In God, whose word I praise,
in the Lord, whose word I praise—
11 in God I trust and am not afraid.
What can man do to me?

Psalm 56
King James Version
56 Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.
2 Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.
3 What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.
4 In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.
5 Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.
6 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.
7 Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O God.
8 Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?
9 When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.
10 In God will I praise his word: in the Lord will I praise his word.
11 In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.
12 Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.
13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?
