Al director musical. De David, el siervo del Señor.
1Dice el pecador: «Ser impío lo llevo en el corazón».[1] No hay temor de Dios delante de sus ojos.2Cree que merece alabanzas y no halla aborrecible su pecado.3Sus palabras son inicuas y engañosas; ha perdido el buen juicio y la capacidad de hacer el bien.4Aun en su lecho trama hacer el mal; se aferra a su mal camino y persiste en la maldad.5Tu amor, SEÑOR, llega hasta los cielos; tu fidelidad alcanza las nubes.6Tu justicia es como las altas montañas;[2] tus juicios, como el gran océano. Tú, SEÑOR, cuidas de hombres y animales;7¡cuán precioso, oh Dios, es tu gran amor! Todo ser humano halla refugio a la sombra de tus alas.8Se sacian de la abundancia de tu casa; les das a beber de tu río de deleites.9Porque en ti está la fuente de la vida, y en tu luz podemos ver la luz.10Extiende tu amor a los que te conocen, y tu justicia a los rectos de corazón.11Que no me aplaste el pie del orgulloso, ni me desarraigue la mano del impío.12Ved cómo fracasan los malvados: ¡caen a tierra, y ya no pueden levantarse!
Psalm 36
English Standard Version
How Precious Is Your Steadfast Love
1To the choirmaster. Of David, the servant of the Lord. Transgression speaks to the wicked deep in his heart;[1] there is no fear of God before his eyes. (Ps 18,1; Röm 3,18)2For he flatters himself in his own eyes that his iniquity cannot be found out and hated. (5Mo 29,19; Ps 10,3; Ps 49,18)3The words of his mouth are trouble and deceit; he has ceased to act wisely and do good. (Ps 12,2; Jer 4,22)4He plots trouble while on his bed; he sets himself in a way that is not good; he does not reject evil. (Ps 10,7; Ps 97,10; Spr 4,16; Jes 65,2; Mi 2,1)5Your steadfast love, O Lord, extends to the heavens, your faithfulness to the clouds.6Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your judgments are like the great deep; man and beast you save, O Lord. (Neh 9,6; Ps 71,19; Ps 92,5; Ps 104,14; Ps 145,9; Ps 145,15; Röm 11,33)7How precious is your steadfast love, O God! The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings. (Rut 2,12; Ps 31,19)8They feast on the abundance of your house, and you give them drink from the river of your delights. (Ps 16,11; Ps 23,5; Ps 27,4; Ps 46,4; Ps 65,4; Jes 25,6; Jer 31,12; Offb 22,1)9For with you is the fountain of life; in your light do we see light. (Jer 2,13; Joh 1,9; Joh 4,10; Joh 4,14; Joh 5,26; Apg 26,18; 1Petr 2,9)10Oh, continue your steadfast love to those who know you, and your righteousness to the upright of heart! (Ps 7,10; Ps 79,6; Jer 22,16; Gal 4,9)11Let not the foot of arrogance come upon me, nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.12There the evildoers lie fallen; they are thrust down, unable to rise. (Ps 1,5; Ps 94,4)
