Salmos 143

Young's Literal Translation

1A Psalm of David. O Jehovah, hear my prayer, Give ear unto my supplications, In Thy faithfulness answer me — in Thy righteousness.

2And enter not into judgment with Thy servant, For no one living is justified before Thee.

3For an enemy hath pursued my soul, He hath bruised to the earth my life, He hath caused me to dwell in dark places, As the dead of old.

4And my spirit in me is become feeble, Within me is my heart become desolate.

5I have remembered days of old, I have meditated on all Thine acts, On the work of Thy hand I muse.

6I have spread forth my hands unto Thee, My soul [is] as a weary land for Thee. Selah.

7Haste, answer me, O Jehovah, My spirit hath been consumed, Hide not Thou Thy face from me, Or I have been compared with those going down [to] the pit.

8Cause me to hear in the morning Thy kindness, For in Thee I have trusted, Cause me to know the way that I go, For unto Thee I have lifted up my soul.

9Deliver me from mine enemies, O Jehovah, Near Thee I am covered.

10Teach me to do Thy good pleasure, For Thou [art] my God — Thy Spirit [is] good, Lead me into a land of uprightness.

11For Thy name's sake O Jehovah, Thou dost quicken me, In Thy righteousness, Thou bringest out from distress my soul,

12And in Thy kindness cuttest off mine enemies, And hast destroyed all the adversaries of my soul, For I [am] Thy servant!

Reina-Valera 1909

1Salmo de David. OH Jehová, oye mi oración, escucha mis ruegos: respóndeme por tu verdad, por tu justicia.

2Y no entres en juicio con tu siervo; porque no se justificará delante de ti ningún viviente.

3Porque ha perseguido el enemigo mi alma; ha postrado en tierra mi vida; hame hecho habitar en tinieblas como los ya muertos.

4Y mi espíritu se angustió dentro de mí; pasmóse mi corazón.

5Acordéme de los días antiguos; meditaba en todas tus obras; reflexionaba en las obras de tus manos.

6Extendí mis manos á ti; mi alma á ti como la tierra sedienta. (Selah.)

7Respóndeme presto, oh Jehová que desmaya mi espíritu: no escondas de mí tu rostro, y venga yo á ser semejante á los que descienden á la sepultura.

8Hazme oir por la mañana tu misericordia, porque en ti he confiado: hazme saber el camino por donde ande, porque á ti he alzado mi alma.

9Líbrame de mis enemigos, oh Jehová: á ti me acojo.

10Enséñame á hacer tu voluntad, porque tú eres mi Dios: tu buen espíritu me guíe á tierra de rectitud.

11Por tu nombre, oh Jehová me vivificarás: por tu justicia, sacarás mi alma de angustia.

12Y por tu misericordia disiparás mis enemigos, y destruirás todos los adversarios de mi alma: porque yo soy tu siervo.

King James Version

1Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness.

2And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall no man living be justified.

3For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.

4Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.

5I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy works; I muse on the work of thy hands.

6I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah.

7Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.

8Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee.

9Deliver me, O LORD, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.

10Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

11Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name’s sake: for thy righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble.

12And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.

World English Bible

1Hear my prayer, LORD. Listen to my petitions. In your faithfulness and righteousness, relieve me.

2Don’t enter into judgment with your servant, for in your sight no man living is righteous.

3For the enemy pursues my soul. He has struck my life down to the ground. He has made me live in dark places, as those who have been long dead.

4Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me. My heart within me is desolate.

5I remember the days of old. I meditate on all your doings. I contemplate the work of your hands.

6I spread out my hands to you. My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land. Selah.

7Hurry to answer me, LORD. My spirit fails. Don’t hide your face from me, so that I don’t become like those who go down into the pit.

8Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, for I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you.

9Deliver me, LORD, from my enemies. I flee to you to hide me.

10Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.

11Revive me, LORD, for your name’s sake. In your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble.

12In your loving kindness, cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul, for I am your servant.
