Salmos 36

1Al maestro de coro. De David, siervo de Dios.

2La rebeldía instiga al impío en su corazón; a sus ojos no hay temor de Dios.

3Por tanto, se lisonjea en su mente de que su culpa no será hallada ni aborrecida.

4Las palabras de su boca son malicia y fraude, no se cuida de entender para obrar bien.

5En su lecho medita la iniquidad; anda siempre en malos caminos. La maldad no le causa horror.

6Yahvé, tu misericordia toca el cielo; tu fidelidad, las nubes.

7Tu justicia es alta como los montes de Dios; profundos como el mar, tus juicios. Tú, Yahvé, socorres al hombre y al animal.

8¡Cuán preciosa es, oh Dios, tu largueza! los hijos de los hombres se abrigan a la sombra de tus alas.

9Se sacian con la abundancia de tu casa, y los embriagas en el río de tus delicias.

10Pues en Ti está la fuente de la vida, y en tu luz vemos la luz.

11Despliega tu bondad sobre los que te conocen, y tu justicia sobre los de corazón recto.

12No me aplaste el pie del soberbio ni me haga vacilar la mano del impío.

13He aquí derribados a los obradores de la iniquidad, caídos para no levantarse más.

1In finem. Servo Domini ipsi David.

2[Dixit injustus ut delinquat in semetipso: non est timor Dei ante oculos ejus.

3Quoniam dolose egit in conspectu ejus, ut inveniatur iniquitas ejus ad odium.

4Verba oris ejus iniquitas, et dolus; noluit intelligere ut bene ageret.

5Iniquitatem meditatus est in cubili suo; astitit omni viæ non bonæ: malitiam autem non odivit.

6Domine, in cælo misericordia tua, et veritas tua usque ad nubes.

7Justitia tua sicut montes Dei; judicia tua abyssus multa. Homines et jumenta salvabis, Domine,

8quemadmodum multiplicasti misericordiam tuam, Deus. Filii autem hominum in tegmine alarum tuarum sperabunt.

9Inebriabuntur ab ubertate domus tuæ, et torrente voluptatis tuæ potabis eos:

10quoniam apud te est fons vitæ, et in lumine tuo videbimus lumen.

11Prætende misericordiam tuam scientibus te, et justitiam tuam his qui recto sunt corde.

12Non veniat mihi pes superbiæ, et manus peccatoris non moveat me.

13Ibi ceciderunt qui operantur iniquitatem; expulsi sunt, nec potuerunt stare.]

1Unto the end, for the servant of God, David himself.

2The unjust hath said within himself, that he would sin: there is no fear of God before his eyes.

3For in his sight he hath done deceitfully, that his iniquity may be found unto hatred.

4The words of his mouth are iniquity and guile: he would not understand that he might do well.

5He hath devised iniquity on his bed, he hath set himself on every way that is not good: but evil he hath not hated.

6O Lord, thy mercy is in heaven, and thy truth reacheth, even to the clouds.

7Thy justice is as the mountains of God, thy judgments are a great deep. Men and beasts thou wilt preserve, O Lord:

8O how hast thou multiplied thy mercy, O God! But the children of men shall put their trust under the covert of thy wings.

9They shall be inebriated with the plenty of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the torrent of thy pleasure.

10For with thee is the fountain of life; and in thy light we shall see light.

11Extend thy mercy to them that know thee, and thy justice to them that are right in heart.

12Let not the foot of pride come to me, and let not the hand of the sinner move me.

13There the workers of iniquity are fallen, they are cast out, and could not stand.
