Salmos 101

Douay-Rheims Bible

1The prayer of the poor man, when he was anxious, and poured out his supplication before the Lord.

2Hear, O Lord, my prayer: and let my cry come to thee.

3Turn not away thy face from me: in the day when I am in trouble, incline thy ear to me. In what day soever I shall call upon thee, hear me speedily.

4For my days are vanished like smoke: and my bones are grown dry like fuel for the fire.

5I am smitten as grass, and my heart is withered: because I forgot to eat my bread.

6Through the voice of my groaning, my bone hath cleaved to my flesh.

7I am become like to a pelican of the wilderness: I am like a night raven in the house.

8I have watched, and am become as a sparrow all alone on the housetop.

9All the day long my enemies reproached me: and they that praised me did swear against me.

10For I did eat ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping.

11Because of thy anger and indignation: for having lifted me up thou hast thrown me down.

12My days have declined like a shadow, and I am withered like grass.

13But thou, O Lord, endurest for ever: and thy memorial to all generations.

14Thou shalt arise and have mercy on Sion: for it is time to have mercy on it, for the time is come.

15For the stones thereof have pleased thy servants: and they shall have pity on the earth thereof.

16And the Gentiles shall fear thy name, O Lord, and all the kings of the earth thy glory.

17For the Lord hath built up Sion: and he shall be seen in his glory.

18He hath had regard to the prayer of the humble: and he hath not despised their petition.

19Let these things be written unto another generation: and the people that shall be created shall praise the Lord:

20Because he hath looked forth from his high sanctuary: from heaven the Lord hath looked upon the earth.

21That he might hear the groans of them that are in fetters: that he might release the children of the slain:

22That they may declare the name of the Lord in Sion: and his praise in Jerusalem;

23When the people assemble together, and kings, to serve the Lord.

24He answered him in the way of his strength: Declare unto me the fewness of my days.

25Call me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are unto generation and generation.

26In the beginning, O Lord, thou foundedst the earth: and the heavens are the works of thy hands.

27They shall perish but thou remainest: and all of them shall grow old like a garment: And as a vesture thou shalt change them, and they shall be changed.

28But thou art always the selfsame, and thy years shall not fail.

29The children of thy servants shall continue: and their seed shall be directed for ever.

Reina-Valera 1909

1Salmo de David. MISERICORDIA y juicio cantaré: á ti cantaré yo, oh Jehová.

2Entenderé en el camino de la perfección cuando vinieres á mí: en integridad de mi corazón andaré en medio de mi casa.

3No pondré delante de mis ojos cosa injusta: aborrezco la obra de los que se desvían: ninguno de ellos se allegará á mí.

4Corazón perverso se apartará de mí; no conoceré al malvado.

5Al que solapadamente infama á su prójimo, yo le cortaré; no sufriré al de ojos altaneros, y de corazón vanidoso.

6Mis ojos pondré en los fieles de la tierra, para que estén conmigo: el que anduviere en el camino de la perfección, éste me servirá.

7No habitará dentro de mi casa el que hace fraude: el que habla mentiras no se afirmará delante de mis ojos.

8Por las mañanas cortaré á todos los impíos de la tierra; para extirpar de la ciudad de Jehová á todos los que obraren iniquidad.

King James Version

1I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing.

2I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

3I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

4A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.

5Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.

6Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

7He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.

8I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.

World English Bible

1I will sing of loving kindness and justice. To you, LORD, I will sing praises.

2I will be careful to live a blameless life. When will you come to me? I will walk within my house with a blameless heart.

3I will set no vile thing before my eyes. I hate the deeds of faithless men. They will not cling to me.

4A perverse heart will be far from me. I will have nothing to do with evil.

5I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbor. I won’t tolerate one who is arrogant and conceited.

6My eyes will be on the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he will serve me.

7He who practices deceit won’t dwell within my house. He who speaks falsehood won’t be established before my eyes.

8Morning by morning, I will destroy all the wicked of the land, to cut off all the workers of iniquity from the LORD’s city.
