Salmos 57
Nueva Biblia de las Américas
Salmo 57
Oración pidiendo ser librado de los perseguidores
Para el director del coro; según tonada de «No destruyas». Mictam de David, en la cueva, cuando huía de Saúl.
57 Ten piedad de mí, oh Dios, ten piedad de mí,
Porque en Ti se refugia mi alma(A);
En la sombra de Tus alas me ampararé(B)
Hasta que la destrucción pase(C).
2 Clamaré al Dios Altísimo,
Al Dios que todo lo hace para mí(D).
3 Él enviará desde los cielos y me salvará(E);
Él reprocha al que me pisotea(F). (Selah)
Dios enviará Su misericordia y Su verdad(G).
4 ¶Mi alma está entre leones(H);
Tengo que acostarme entre los que vomitan fuego;
Entre los hijos de los hombres, cuyos dientes son lanzas y saetas(I),
Y cuya lengua es espada afilada(J).
5 Exaltado seas sobre los cielos, oh Dios;
Sea Tu gloria sobre toda la tierra(K).
6 Han tendido una red para mis pasos(L);
Mi alma está abatida(M);
Han cavado una fosa delante de mí(N),
Pero ellos mismos han caído en medio de ella(O). (Selah)
7 ¶(P)Firme está mi corazón, oh Dios, mi corazón está firme(Q);
¡Cantaré y entonaré salmos!
8 ¡Despierta, gloria mía(R)!
¡Despierten, arpa y lira(S)!
¡A la aurora despertaré!
9 Te alabaré[a] entre los pueblos, Señor;
Te cantaré alabanzas entre las naciones(T).
10 Porque grande, hasta los cielos, es Tu misericordia,
Y hasta el firmamento Tu verdad[b](U).
11 Exaltado seas sobre los cielos, oh Dios;
Sobre toda la tierra sea Tu gloria(V).
Psalm 57
New King James Version
Prayer for Safety from Enemies(A)
To the Chief Musician. Set to [a]“Do Not Destroy.” A Michtam of David (B)when he fled from Saul into the cave.
57 Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me!
For my soul trusts in You;
(C)And in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge,
(D)Until these calamities have passed by.
2 I will cry out to God Most High,
To God (E)who performs all things for me.
3 (F)He shall send from heaven and save me;
He reproaches the one who [b]would swallow me up. Selah
God (G)shall send forth His mercy and His truth.
4 My soul is among lions;
I lie among the sons of men
Who are set on fire,
(H)Whose teeth are spears and arrows,
And their tongue a sharp sword.
5 (I)Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
Let Your glory be above all the earth.
6 (J)They have prepared a net for my steps;
My soul is bowed down;
They have dug a pit before me;
Into the midst of it they themselves have fallen. Selah
7 (K)My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast;
I will sing and give praise.
8 Awake, (L)my glory!
Awake, lute and harp!
I will awaken the dawn.
9 (M)I will praise You, O Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing to You among the [c]nations.
10 (N)For Your mercy reaches unto the heavens,
And Your truth unto the clouds.
11 (O)Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
Let Your glory be above all the earth.
