Salmos 94

1¡Oh Dios vengador, Yahvé, Dios de las venganzas, muéstrate!

2Levántate, glorioso, oh Juez del mundo; da a los soberbios lo que merecen.

3¿Hasta cuándo los malvados, Yahvé? ¿Hasta cuándo los malvados triunfarán,

4proferirán necedades con lenguaje arrogante, se jactarán todos de sus obras inicuas?

5Oprimen a tu pueblo, Yahvé, y devastan tu heredad;

6asesinan a la viuda y al extranjero, y matan a los huérfanos.

7Y dicen: “El Señor no lo ve, el Dios de Jacob nada sabe.”

8Entendedlo, oh necios entre todos; insensatos, sabedlo al fin:

9Aquel que plantó el oído ¿no oirá Él mismo? Y el que formó el ojo ¿no verá?

10El que castiga a las naciones ¿no ha de pedir cuentas? Aquel que enseña al hombre ¿ (no tendrá) conocimiento?

11Yahvé conoce los pensamientos de los hombres: ¡son una cosa vana!

12Dichoso el hombre a quien Tú educas, oh Yah, el que Tú instruyes mediante tu Ley,

13para darle tranquilidad en los días aciagos, hasta que se cave la fosa para el inicuo.

14Puesto que Yahvé no desechará a su pueblo, ni desamparará su heredad,

15sino que volverá a imperar la justicia, y la seguirán todos los rectos de corazón.

16¿Quién se levantará en mi favor contra los malhechores? ¿Quién se juntará conmigo para oponerse a los malvados?

17Si Yahvé no estuviese para ayudarme, ya el silencio sería mi morada.

18Cuando pienso: “Mi pie va a resbalar”, tu misericordia, Yahvé, me sostiene.

19Cuando las ansiedades se multiplican en mi corazón, tus consuelos deleitan mi alma.

20¿Podrá tener comunidad contigo la sede de la iniquidad, que forja tiranía bajo apariencia legal?

21Asalten ellos el alma del justo, y condenen la sangre inocente;

22mas Yahvé será para mí una fortaleza, y el Dios mío la roca de mi refugio.

23Él hará que su perversidad caiga sobre ellos mismos; y con su propia malicia los destruirá, los exterminará Yahvé, nuestro Dios.

1Psalmus ipsi David, quarta sabbati. [Deus ultionum Dominus; Deus ultionum libere egit.

2Exaltare, qui judicas terram; redde retributionem superbis.

3Usquequo peccatores, Domine, usquequo peccatores gloriabuntur;

4effabuntur et loquentur iniquitatem; loquentur omnes qui operantur injustitiam?

5Populum tuum, Domine, humiliaverunt, et hæreditatem tuam vexaverunt.

6Viduam et advenam interfecerunt, et pupillos occiderunt.

7Et dixerunt: Non videbit Dominus, nec intelliget Deus Jacob.

8Intelligite, insipientes in populo; et stulti, aliquando sapite.

9Qui plantavit aurem non audiet? aut qui finxit oculum non considerat?

10Qui corripit gentes non arguet, qui docet hominem scientiam?

11Dominus scit cogitationes hominum, quoniam vanæ sunt.

12Beatus homo quem tu erudieris, Domine, et de lege tua docueris eum:

13ut mitiges ei a diebus malis, donec fodiatur peccatori fovea.

14Quia non repellet Dominus plebem suam, et hæreditatem suam non derelinquet,

15quoadusque justitia convertatur in judicium: et qui juxta illam, omnes qui recto sunt corde.

16Quis consurget mihi adversus malignantes? aut quis stabit mecum adversus operantes iniquitatem?

17Nisi quia Dominus adjuvit me, paulominus habitasset in inferno anima mea.

18Si dicebam: Motus est pes meus: misericordia tua, Domine, adjuvabat me.

19Secundum multitudinem dolorum meorum in corde meo, consolationes tuæ lætificaverunt animam meam.

20Numquid adhæret tibi sedes iniquitatis, qui fingis laborem in præcepto?

21Captabunt in animam justi, et sanguinem innocentem condemnabunt.

22Et factus est mihi Dominus in refugium, et Deus meus in adjutorium spei meæ.

23Et reddet illis iniquitatem ipsorum, et in malitia eorum disperdet eos: disperdet illos Dominus Deus noster.]

1The Lord is the God to whom revenge belongeth: the God of revenge hath acted freely.

2Lift up thyself, thou that judgest the earth: render a reward to the proud.

3How long shall sinners, O Lord: how long shall sinners glory?

4Shall they utter, and speak iniquity: shall all speak who work injustice?

5Thy people, O Lord, they have brought low: and they have afflicted thy inheritance.

6They have slain the widow and the stranger: and they have murdered the fatherless.

7And they have said: The Lord shall not see: neither shall the God of Jacob understand.

8Understand, ye senseless among the people: and, you fools, be wise at last.

9He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? or he that formed the eye, doth he not consider?

10He that chastiseth nations, shall he not rebuke: he that teacheth man knowledge?

11The Lord knoweth the thoughts of men, that they are vain.

12Blessed is the man whom thou shalt instruct, O Lord: and shalt teach him out of thy law.

13That thou mayst give him rest from the evil days: till a pit be dug for the wicked.

14For the Lord will not cast off his people: neither will he forsake his own inheritance.

15Until justice be turned into judgment: and they that are near it are all the upright in heart.

16Who shall rise up for me against the evildoers? or who shall stand with me against the workers of iniquity?

17Unless the Lord had been my helper, my soul had almost dwelt in hell.

18If I said: My foot is moved: thy mercy, O Lord, assisted me.

19According to the multitude of my sorrows in my heart, thy comforts have given joy to my soul.

20Doth the seat of iniquity stick to thee, who framest labour in commandment?

21They will hunt after the soul of the just, and will condemn innocent blood.

22But the Lord is my refuge: and my God the help of my hope.

23And he will render them their iniquity: and in their malice he will destroy them: the Lord our God will destroy them.
