1¡Aclamad alegres a Dios, habitantes de toda la tierra!2Cantad salmos a su glorioso nombre; ¡rendidle gloriosas alabanzas!3Decidle a Dios: «¡Cuán imponentes son tus obras! Es tan grande tu poder que tus enemigos mismos se rinden ante ti.4Toda la tierra se postra en tu presencia, y te cantan salmos; cantan salmos a tu nombre». Selah5¡Venid y ved las proezas de Dios, sus obras portentosas en nuestro favor!6Convirtió el mar en tierra seca, y el pueblo cruzó el río a pie. ¡Regocijémonos en él!7Con su poder gobierna eternamente; sus ojos vigilan a las naciones. ¡Que no se levanten contra él los rebeldes! Selah8Pueblos todos, bendecid a nuestro Dios, haced oír la voz de su alabanza.9Él ha protegido nuestra vida, ha evitado que resbalen nuestros pies.10Tú, oh Dios, nos has puesto a prueba; nos has purificado como a la plata.11Nos has hecho caer en una red; ¡pesada carga nos has echado a cuestas!12Las caballerías nos han aplastado la cabeza; hemos pasado por el fuego y por el agua, pero al fin nos has dado un respiro.13Me presentaré en tu templo con holocaustos y cumpliré los votos que te hice,14los votos de mis labios y mi boca que pronuncié en medio de mi angustia.15Te ofreceré holocaustos de animales engordados, junto con el humo de ofrendas de carneros; te ofreceré toros y machos cabríos. Selah16Venid vosotros, los que teméis a Dios, escuchad, que voy a contaros todo lo que él ha hecho por mí.17Clamé a él con mi boca; lo alabé con mi lengua.18Si en mi corazón hubiera yo abrigado maldad, el Señor no me habría escuchado;19pero Dios sí me ha escuchado, ha atendido a la voz de mi plegaria.20¡Bendito sea Dios, que no rechazó mi plegaria ni me negó su amor!
1To the choirmaster. A Song. A Psalm. Shout for joy to God, all the earth; (Sal 81:1; Sal 95:1; Sal 98:4; Sal 100:1)2sing the glory of his name; give to him glorious praise! (Jos 7:19; Is 42:12)3Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies come cringing to you. (Sal 18:44; Sal 65:5)4All the earth worships you and sings praises to you; they sing praises to your name.” (Sal 22:27)5Come and see what God has done: he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man. (Sal 46:8; Sal 66:3; Sal 66:16)6He turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the river on foot. There did we rejoice in him, (Ex 14:21; Jos 3:14; Sal 74:15)7who rules by his might forever, whose eyes keep watch on the nations— let not the rebellious exalt themselves. (Sal 11:4)8Bless our God, O peoples; let the sound of his praise be heard,9who has kept our soul among the living and has not let our feet slip. (Sal 121:3)10For you, O God, have tested us; you have tried us as silver is tried. (Job 23:10)11You brought us into the net; you laid a crushing burden on our backs; (Lm 1:13; Ez 12:13)12you let men ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water; yet you have brought us out to a place of abundance. (Is 43:2; Is 51:23)13I will come into your house with burnt offerings; I will perform my vows to you, (Sal 50:14)14that which my lips uttered and my mouth promised when I was in trouble. (Sal 18:6)15I will offer to you burnt offerings of fattened animals, with the smoke of the sacrifice of rams; I will make an offering of bulls and goats.16Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will tell what he has done for my soul. (Sal 34:11; Sal 66:5)17I cried to him with my mouth, and high praise was on[1] my tongue.[2]18If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened. (Job 27:9; Job 36:21; Pr 28:9; Is 59:2; Jn 9:31; Stg 4:3)19But truly God has listened; he has attended to the voice of my prayer. (Sal 116:1)20Blessed be God, because he has not rejected my prayer or removed his steadfast love from me!
