Psalm 32
A maskil of David.
1Blessed is the person whose lawless acts are forgiven.
Their sins have been taken away.
2Blessed is the person whose sin the Lord never counts against them.
That person doesn’t want to cheat anyone.
3When I kept silent about my sin,
my body became weak
because I groaned all day long.
4Day and night
you punished me.
I became weaker and weaker
as I do in the heat of summer.
5Then I admitted my sin to you.
I didn’t cover up the wrong I had done.
I said, “I will admit my lawless acts to the Lord.”
And you forgave the guilt of my sin.
6Let everyone who is faithful pray to you
while they can still look to you.
When troubles come like a flood,
they certainly won’t reach those who are faithful.
7You are my hiding place.
You will keep me safe from trouble.
You will surround me with songs sung by those who praise you
because you save your people.
8I will guide you and teach you the way you should go.
I will give you good advice and watch over you with love.
9Don’t be like a horse or a mule.
They can’t understand anything.
They have to be controlled by bits and bridles.
If they aren’t, they won’t come to you.
10Sinful people have all kinds of trouble.
But the Lord’s faithful love
is all around those who trust in him.
11Be glad because of what the Lord has done for you.
Be joyful, you who do what is right!
Sing, all you whose hearts are honest!
Salmo 32
Salmo de David. Masquil.
1Dichoso aquel
a quien se le perdonan sus transgresiones,
a quien se le borran sus pecados.
2Dichoso aquel
a quien el Señor no toma en cuenta su maldad
y en cuyo espíritu no hay engaño.
3Mientras guardé silencio,
mis huesos se fueron consumiendo
por mi gemir de todo el día.
4Mi fuerza se fue debilitando
como al calor del verano,
porque día y noche
tu mano pesaba sobre mí. Selah
5Pero te confesé mi pecado,
y no te oculté mi maldad.
Me dije: «Voy a confesar mis transgresiones al Señor»,
y tú perdonaste mi maldad y mi pecado. Selah
6Por eso los fieles te invocan
en momentos de angustia;32:6 de angustia (LXX y Siríaca); de encontrar solamente (TM).
caudalosas aguas podrán desbordarse,
pero a ellos no los alcanzarán.
7Tú eres mi refugio;
tú me protegerás del peligro
y me rodearás con cánticos de liberación. Selah
8El Señor dice:
«Yo te instruiré,
yo te mostraré el camino que debes seguir;
yo te daré consejos y velaré por ti.
9No seas como el mulo o el caballo,
que no tienen discernimiento,
y cuyo brío hay que domar con brida y freno,
para acercarlos a ti».
10Muchas son las calamidades de los malvados,
pero el gran amor del Señor
envuelve a los que en él confían.
11¡Alegraos, vosotros los justos;
regocijaos en el Señor!
¡Cantad todos vosotros,
los rectos de corazón!
