Salmo 36

La maldad del hombre y la misericordia de Dios

Para el director del coro. Salmo de David, siervo del Señor.

36 La transgresión habla al impío dentro de su corazón;
No hay temor de Dios delante de sus ojos(A).
Porque en sus propios ojos la transgresión le engaña(B)
En cuanto a descubrir su iniquidad y aborrecerla.
Las palabras de su boca son iniquidad y engaño(C);
Ha dejado de ser sabio y de hacer el bien(D).
Planea la iniquidad en su cama(E);
Se obstina en un camino que no es bueno(F);
No aborrece el mal(G).
¶Tu misericordia, oh Señor, se extiende hasta los cielos(H),
Tu fidelidad, hasta el firmamento.
Tu justicia es como los montes de Dios[a](I);
Tus juicios son como profundo abismo(J).
Tú preservas, oh Señor, al hombre y al animal(K).
¡Cuán preciosa es, oh Dios, Tu misericordia(L)!
Por eso los hijos de los hombres se refugian a la sombra de Tus alas(M).
Se sacian de la abundancia de Tu casa(N),
Y les das a beber del río de Tus delicias(O).
Porque en Ti está la fuente de la vida(P);
En Tu luz vemos la luz.
10 ¶Continúa Tu misericordia para con los que te conocen(Q),
Y Tu justicia para con los rectos de corazón(R).
11 Que no me alcance el pie del orgullo,
Ni me mueva la mano de los impíos.
12 Allí han caído los que obran iniquidad;
Han sido derribados y no se pueden levantar(S).

  1. 36:6 O montes poderosos.

36 The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.

For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.

The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good.

He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil.

Thy mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.

Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O Lord, thou preservest man and beast.

How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.

They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.

For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.

10 O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.

11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.

12 There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise.

How Precious Is Your Steadfast Love

To the choirmaster. Of David, the (A)servant of the Lord.

36 Transgression speaks to the wicked
    deep in his heart;[a]
(B)there is no fear of God
    before his eyes.
(C)For he flatters himself in his own eyes
    that his iniquity cannot be found out and hated.
The words of his mouth are (D)trouble and deceit;
    (E)he has ceased to act wisely and do good.
He (F)plots (G)trouble while on his bed;
    he sets himself in (H)a way that is not good;
    (I)he does not reject evil.

Your steadfast love, O Lord, extends to the heavens,
    your faithfulness to the clouds.
(J)Your righteousness is like the mountains of God;
    (K)your judgments are like the great deep;
    man and beast you (L)save, O Lord.

(M)How precious is your steadfast love, O God!
    The children of mankind take refuge (N)in the shadow of your wings.
They feast on (O)the abundance of your house,
    and you give them drink from (P)the river of (Q)your delights.
For with you is (R)the fountain of life;
    (S)in your light do we see light.

10 Oh, continue your steadfast love to those who (T)know you,
    and your righteousness to (U)the upright of heart!
11 Let not the foot of arrogance come upon me,
    nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.
12 There (V)the evildoers lie fallen;
    they are thrust down, (W)unable to rise.

Man’s Wickedness and God’s Perfections

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David the servant of the Lord.

36 An oracle within my heart concerning the transgression of the wicked:
(A)There is no fear of God before his eyes.
For he flatters himself in his own eyes,
When he finds out his iniquity and when he hates.
The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit;
(B)He has ceased to be wise and to do good.
(C)He devises wickedness on his bed;
He sets himself (D)in a way that is not good;
He does not [a]abhor (E)evil.

Your mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens;
Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
Your righteousness is like the [b]great mountains;
(F)Your judgments are a great deep;
O Lord, You preserve man and beast.

How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God!
Therefore the children of men (G)put their trust under the shadow of Your wings.
(H)They are abundantly satisfied with the fullness of Your house,
And You give them drink from (I)the river of Your pleasures.
(J)For with You is the fountain of life;
(K)In Your light we see light.

10 Oh, continue Your lovingkindness to those who know You,
And Your righteousness to the upright in heart.
11 Let not the foot of pride come against me,
And let not the hand of the wicked drive me away.
12 There the workers of iniquity have fallen;
They have been cast down and are not able to rise.
