Salmos, 91
1. El que mora en el secreto de Elyón pasa la noche a la sombra de Sadday,
1. He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High, who abides in the shadow of the Almighty,
2. diciendo a Yahveh: «¡Mi refugio y fortaleza, mi Dios, en quien confío!»
2. will say to the LORD, "My refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust."
3. Que él te libra de la red del cazador, de la peste funesta;
3. For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence;
4. con sus plumas te cubre, y bajo sus alas tienes un refugio: escudo y armadura es su verdad.
4. he will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
5. No temerás el terror de la noche, ni la saeta que de día vuela,
5. You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day,
6. ni la peste que avanza en las tinieblas, ni el azote que devasta a mediodía.
6. nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor the destruction that wastes at noonday.
7. Aunque a tu lado caigan mil y diez mil a tu diestra, a ti no ha de alcanzarte.
7. A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you.
8. Basta con que mires con tus ojos, verás el galardón de los impíos,
8. You will only look with your eyes and see the recompense of the wicked.
9. tú que dices: «¡Mi refugio es Yahveh!», y tomas a Elyón por defensa.
9. Because you have made the LORD your refuge, the Most High your habitation,
10. No ha de alcanzarte el mal, ni la plaga se acercará a tu tienda;
10. no evil shall befall you, no scourge come near your tent.
11. que él dará orden sobre ti a sus ángeles de guardarte en todos tus caminos.
11. For he will give his angels charge of you to guard you in all your ways.
12. Te llevarán ellos en sus manos, para que en piedra no tropiece tu pie;
12. On their hands they will bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone.
13. pisarás sobre el león y la víbora, hollarás al leoncillo y al dragón.
13. You will tread on the lion and the adder, the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot.
14. Pues él se abraza a mí, yo he de librarle; le exaltaré, pues conoce mi nombre.
14. Because he cleaves to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name.
15. Me llamará y le responderé; estaré a su lado en la desgracia, le libraré y le glorificaré.
15. When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will rescue him and honor him.
16. Hartura le daré de largos días, y haré que vea mi salvación.
16. With long life I will satisfy him, and show him my salvation.
