Salmos 59
La Palabra (Hispanoamérica)
Salmo 59 (58)
Dios mío, líbrame de mis enemigos
59 Al maestro del coro. Según “No destruyas”. Poema de David. Cuando Saúl envió a vigilar su casa para matarlo.
2 Dios mío, líbrame de mis enemigos,
protégeme de mis agresores;
3 líbrame de los malhechores,
sálvame de los sanguinarios
4 que están acechando mi vida.
Me atacan, Señor, los poderosos
sin que yo haya cometido falta ni pecado;
5 corren y se preparan contra mí
sin que yo tenga culpa alguna.
¡Despierta, sal a mi encuentro, mírame!
6 Tú, Señor, Dios del universo, Dios de Israel,
decídete a castigar a las naciones,
no te apiades de ningún traidor. [ Pausa]
7 Al atardecer regresan,
aúllan como perros,
rondan por la ciudad.
8 Mira, ladran con sus bocas,
hay espadas en sus labios:
“¿Quién puede oírnos?”.
9 Pero tú, Señor, te ríes de ellos,
te burlas de todas las naciones.
10 Fuerza mía, en ti espero
porque tú eres, oh Dios, mi refugio.
11 El Dios de bondad me acogerá,
Dios hará que vea a mis rivales derrotados.
12 No los mates, no sea que mi pueblo los olvide;
dispérsalos con tu poder y humíllalos,
tú, mi Señor, que eres nuestro escudo.
13 Es pecadora su boca cuando hablan;
que sean presos de su propia soberbia,
de las maldiciones y mentiras que lanzan.
14 Destrúyelos con tu ira; que no quede ninguno
para que sepan que Dios domina en Jacob,
hasta los confines de la tierra. [ Pausa]
15 Al atardecer regresan,
aúllan como perros,
rondan por la ciudad.
16 Vagabundean buscando comida,
gruñen si no quedan saciados.
17 Pero yo cantaré tu poder,
al alba aclamaré tu amor,
porque tú eres mi refugio,
mi fortaleza en la angustia.
18 Fuerza mía, a ti te canto,
porque Dios es mi refugio,
él es el Dios que me ama.
Tehillim 59
Orthodox Jewish Bible
59 (For the one directing. Set to Do Not Destroy. Mikhtam Dovid. When Sha’ul sent and they watched [Dovid’s] bais to kill him) Save me from mine enemies, O Elohai; protect me from them that rise up against me.
2 Deliver me from the po’alei aven (workers of iniquity), and save me from anshei damim (bloody men).
3 For, hinei, they lie in wait for my nefesh; the fierce stir up strife against me; not for my peysha, nor for my chattat, Hashem.
4 They run and prepare themselves without my avon (wrong, fault); awake to help me, and see.
5 Thou therefore, Hashem Elohim Tzva’os, Elohei Yisroel, rouse Thyself to visit [in punishment] kol HaGoyim; be not merciful to any bogedei aven (wicked boged [traitor]). Selah.
6 They return at erev; they growl like a kelev (dog), and prowl around the Ir.
7 Hinei, they belch out with their mouth; charavot (swords) are in their sfatot (lips); for who, say they, doth hear?
8 But Thou, Hashem, shalt laugh at them; Thou shalt have all the Goyim in derision.
9 O my Strength, I will be shomer to watch for Thee; for Elohim is my stronghold.
10 The G-d of my chesed shall come to meet me; Elohim shall let me see [the end] of my shorer (watchers, [i.e., slandering foes insidiously fixated on me and lying in wait]).
11 Slay them not, lest my people forget; scatter them by Thy power; and bring them down, Adonoi mogineinu (our Shield).
12 For the chattat of their mouth and the davar of their sfatayim let them even be caught in their ga’on (pride); and for the cursing and lying which they speak.
13 Consume them in chemah (wrath), consume them, till they are no more; and let them know that Elohim ruleth in Ya’akov unto the ends of ha’aretz. Selah.
14 And at erev let them return; and let them growl like a kelev, and prowl around the Ir.
15 Let them wander up and down for okhel (food), and howl if they be not satisfied.
16 But I will sing of Thy oz; yes, I will sing aloud of Thy chesed in the boker; for Thou hast been my stronghold and refuge in the day of my tzoros.
17 Unto Thee, O my Strength, will I sing; for Elohim is my strongold, and the Elohim of my chesed.
Psalm 59
King James Version
59 Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.
2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.
3 For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O Lord.
4 They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me, and behold.
5 Thou therefore, O Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah.
6 They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.
7 Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips: for who, say they, doth hear?
8 But thou, O Lord, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.
9 Because of his strength will I wait upon thee: for God is my defence.
10 The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see my desire upon mine enemies.
11 Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield.
12 For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.
13 Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. Selah.
14 And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.
15 Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not satisfied.
16 But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.
17 Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.

10 my God on whom I can rely.
God will go before me

and bring them down.(X)
12 For the sins of their mouths,(Y)
for the words of their lips,(Z)
let them be caught in their pride.(AA)
For the curses and lies they utter,

you, God, are my fortress,
my God on whom I can rely.(AK)
