1SEÑOR, no me reprendas en tu enojo ni me castigues en tu ira.2Porque tus flechas me han atravesado, y sobre mí ha caído tu mano.3A causa de tu indignación no hay nada sano en mi cuerpo; por mi pecado, mis huesos no hallan descanso.4Mis maldades me abruman, son una carga demasiado pesada.5A causa de mi insensatez, mis llagas hieden y supuran.6Estoy agobiado, del todo abatido; todo el día ando acongojado.7Estoy ardiendo de fiebre; no hay nada sano en mi cuerpo.8Me siento débil, completamente deshecho; mi corazón gime angustiado.9Ante ti, Señor, están todos mis deseos; no te son un secreto mis anhelos.10Late mi corazón con violencia, las fuerzas me abandonan, hasta la luz de mis ojos se apaga.11Mis amigos y vecinos se apartan de mis llagas; mis parientes se mantienen a distancia.12Tienden sus trampas los que quieren matarme; maquinan mi ruina los que buscan mi mal y todo el día urden engaños.13Pero yo me hago el sordo, y no los escucho; me hago el mudo, y no les respondo.14Soy como los que no oyen ni pueden defenderse.15Yo, SEÑOR, espero en ti; tú, Señor y Dios mío, serás quien responda.16Tan solo pido que no se burlen de mí, que no se crean superiores si resbalo.17Cerca estoy de desfallecer; el dolor no me deja un solo instante.18Voy a confesar mi iniquidad, pues mi pecado me angustia.19Muchos son mis enemigos gratuitos;[1] abundan los que me odian sin motivo.20Por hacer el bien, me pagan con el mal; por procurar lo bueno, se ponen en mi contra.21SEÑOR, no me abandones; Dios mío, no te alejes de mí.22Señor de mi salvación, ¡ven pronto en mi ayuda!
1A Psalm of David, for the memorial offering. O Lord, rebuke me not in your anger, nor discipline me in your wrath! (1 Cr 16:4; Sal 6:1; Sal 70:1)2For your arrows have sunk into me, and your hand has come down on me. (Job 6:4; Sal 32:4)3There is no soundness in my flesh because of your indignation; there is no health in my bones because of my sin. (Sal 31:10; Is 1:6)4For my iniquities have gone over my head; like a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me. (Esd 9:6; Sal 40:12)5My wounds stink and fester because of my foolishness,6I am utterly bowed down and prostrate; all the day I go about mourning. (Job 30:28; Sal 35:14; Sal 42:5; Sal 42:11; Sal 43:5; Is 21:3)7For my sides are filled with burning, and there is no soundness in my flesh. (Sal 38:3)8I am feeble and crushed; I groan because of the tumult of my heart. (Sal 22:1)9O Lord, all my longing is before you; my sighing is not hidden from you. (Sal 6:6)10My heart throbs; my strength fails me, and the light of my eyes—it also has gone from me. (Sal 6:7)11My friends and companions stand aloof from my plague, and my nearest kin stand far off. (Job 19:13; Sal 39:10; Sal 88:18; Is 53:4; Is 53:8; Mt 27:55; Mr 15:40; Lc 10:31; Lc 23:49)12Those who seek my life lay their snares; those who seek my hurt speak of ruin and meditate treachery all day long. (2 S 16:7; 2 S 17:1; Sal 35:20; Mt 22:15; Mr 12:13; Lc 20:20)13But I am like a deaf man; I do not hear, like a mute man who does not open his mouth. (Sal 39:2; Sal 39:9; Is 53:7; 1 P 2:23)14I have become like a man who does not hear, and in whose mouth are no rebukes. (Job 23:4)15But for you, O Lord, do I wait; it is you, O Lord my God, who will answer. (2 S 16:12; Sal 39:7)16For I said, “Only let them not rejoice over me, who boast against me when my foot slips!” (Job 19:5; Sal 13:4; Sal 94:18)17For I am ready to fall, and my pain is ever before me. (Sal 35:15; Jer 20:10)18I confess my iniquity; I am sorry for my sin. (Sal 32:5; 2 Co 7:9)19But my foes are vigorous, they are mighty, and many are those who hate me wrongfully. (Sal 35:19)20Those who render me evil for good accuse me because I follow after good. (Sal 35:12; Sal 109:4; 3 Jn 1:11)21Do not forsake me, O Lord! O my God, be not far from me! (Sal 10:1)22Make haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation! (Sal 27:1; Sal 40:13)
