Salmos 72
Catholic Public Domain Version
1A Psalm of Asaph. How good is God to Israel, to those who are upright in heart.
2But my feet were nearly moved; my steps had nearly slipped.
3For I was zealous over the iniquitous, seeing the peacefulness of sinners.
4For they have no respect for their death, nor do they have support in their wounds.
5They are not with the hardships of men, nor will they be scourged with men.
6Therefore, arrogance has held on to them. They have been covered with their iniquity and impiety.
7Their iniquity has proceeded, as if from fat. They have parted from the affection of the heart.
8They have thought and spoken wickedness. They have spoken iniquity in high places.
9They have set their mouth against heaven, and their tongue has traversed the earth.
10Therefore, my people will be converted here, and fullness of days will be found in them.
11And they said, “How would God know?” and, “Isn’t there knowledge in high places?”
12Behold, these are sinners, and, abounding in this age, they have obtained riches.
13And I said: So then, it is without purpose that I have justified my heart and washed my hands among the innocent.
14And I have been scourged all day long, and I have received my chastisement in the mornings.
15If I were to say that I would explain this: Behold, I would condemn this nation of your sons.
16I considered, so that I might know this. It is a hardship before me,
17until I may enter into the Sanctuary of God, and understand it to its last part.
18So, because of deceitfulness, truly, you have placed it before them. While they were being lifted up, you were casting them down.
19How have they been brought to desolation? They have suddenly failed. They have perished because of their iniquity.
20As a dream is to those who awaken, O Lord, so will you reduce their image to nothing in your city.
21For my heart has been inflamed, and my temperament has been changed.
22And so, I have been reduced to nothing, and I did not know it.
23I have become like a beast of burden to you, and I am always with you.
24You have held my right hand. And in your will, you have conducted me, and with your glory, you have taken me up.
25For what is there for me in heaven? And what do I wish for on earth before you?
26My body has failed, and my heart: O God of my heart, and God my portion, into eternity.
27For behold, those who put themselves far from you will perish. You have perished all those who fornicate away from you.
28But it is good for me to adhere to God, to put my hope in the Lord God, so that I may announce all your prophecies, at the gates of the daughter of Zion.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Para Salomón. OH Dios, da tus juicios al rey, y tu justicia al hijo del rey.
2El juzgará tu pueblo con justicia, y tus afligidos con juicio.
3Los montes llevarán paz al pueblo, y los collados justicia.
4Juzgará los afligidos del pueblo, salvará los hijos del menesteroso, y quebrantará al violento.
5Temerte han mientras duren el sol y la luna, por generación de generaciones.
6Descenderá como la lluvia sobre la hierba cortada; como el rocío que destila sobre la tierra.
7Florecerá en sus días justicia, y muchedumbre de paz, hasta que no haya luna.
8Y dominará de mar á mar, y desde el río hasta los cabos de la tierra.
9Delante de él se postrarán los Etiopes; y sus enemigos lamerán la tierra.
10Los reyes de Tharsis y de las islas traerán presentes: los reyes de Sheba y de Seba ofrecerán dones.
11Y arrodillarse han á él todos los reyes; le servirán todas las gentes.
12Porque él librará al menesteroso que clamare, y al afligido que no tuviere quien le socorra.
13Tendrá misericordia del pobre y del menesteroso, y salvará las almas de los pobres.
14De engaño y de violencia redimirá sus almas; y la sangre de ellos será preciosa en sus ojos.
15Y vivirá, y darásele del oro de Seba; y oraráse por él continuamente; todo el día se le bendecirá.
16Será echado un puño de grano en tierra, en las cumbres de los montes; su fruto hará ruido como el Líbano, y los de la ciudad florecerán como la hierba de la tierra.
17Será su nombre para siempre, perpetuaráse su nombre mientras el sol dure: y benditas serán en él todas las gentes: llamarlo han bienaventurado.
18Bendito Jehová Dios, el Dios de Israel, que solo hace maravillas.
19Y bendito su nombre glorioso para siempre: y toda la tierra sea llena de su gloria. Amén y Amén.
20Acábanse las oraciones de David, hijo de Isaí.

King James Version
1Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy righteousness unto the king’s son.
2He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with judgment.
3The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little hills, by righteousness.
4He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall save the children of the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor.
5They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout all generations.
6He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that water the earth.
7In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth.
8He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.
9They that dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him; and his enemies shall lick the dust.
10The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents: the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
11Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve him.
12For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper.
13He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy.
14He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight.
15And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba: prayer also shall be made for him continually; and daily shall he be praised.
16There shall be an handful of corn in the earth upon the top of the mountains; the fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon: and they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.
17His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as long as the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed.
18Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things.
19And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen.
20The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
