Salmos 139

1 Al Músico principal: Salmo de David. OH Jehová, tú me has examinado y conocido.2 Tú has conocido mi sentarme y mi levantarme, Has entendido desde lejos mis pensamientos.3 Mi senda y mi acostarme has rodeado, Y estás impuesto en todos mis caminos.4 Pues aun no está la palabra en mi lengua, Y he aquí, oh Jehová, tú la sabes toda.5 Detrás y delante me guarneciste, Y sobre mí pusiste tu mano.6 Más maravillosa es la ciencia que mi capacidad; Alta es, no puedo comprenderla.

7 ¿Adónde me iré de tu espíritu? ¿Y adónde huiré de tu presencia?

8 Si subiere á los cielos, allí estás tú: Y si en abismo hiciere mi estrado, he aquí allí tú estás.

9 Si tomare las alas del alba, Y habitare en el extremo de la mar,

10 Aun allí me guiará tu mano, Y me asirá tu diestra.

11 Si dijere: Ciertamente las tinieblas me encubrirán; Aun la noche resplandecerá tocante á mí.

12 Aun las tinieblas no encubren de ti, Y la noche resplandece como el día: Lo mismo te son las tinieblas que la luz.

13 Porque tú poseiste mis riñones; Cubrísteme en el vientre de mi madre.

14 Te alabaré; porque formidables, maravillosas son tus obras: Estoy maravillado, Y mi alma lo conoce mucho.

15 No fué encubierto de ti mi cuerpo, Bien que en oculto fuí formado, Y compaginado en lo más bajo de la tierra.

16 Mi embrión vieron tus ojos, Y en tu libro estaban escritas todas aquellas cosas Que fueron luego formadas, Sin faltar una de ellas.

17 Así que ­cuán preciosos me son, oh Dios, tus pensamientos! ­Cuán multiplicadas son sus cuentas!

18 Si los cuento, multiplícanse más que la arena: Despierto, y aun estoy contigo.

19 De cierto, oh Dios, matarás al impío; Apartaos pues de mí, hombres sanguinarios.

20 Porque blasfemias dicen ellos contra ti: Tus enemigos toman en vano tu nombre

21 ¿No tengo en odio, oh Jehová, á los que te aborrecen, Y me conmuevo contra tus enemigos?

22 Aborrézcolos con perfecto odio; Téngolos por enemigos.

23 Examíname, oh Dios, y conoce mi corazón: Pruébame y reconoce mis pensamientos:

24 Y ve si hay en mí camino de perversidad, Y guíame en el camino eterno.

Psalm 139

For the music director, a psalm of David.

1 O Lord, you examine me and know.

2 You know when I sit down and when I get up;
even from far away you understand my motives.

3 You carefully observe me when I travel or when I lie down to rest;
you are aware of everything I do.

4 Certainly my tongue does not frame a word
without you, O Lord, being thoroughly aware of it.

5 You squeeze me in from behind and in front;
you place your hand on me.

6 Your knowledge is beyond my comprehension;
it is so far beyond me, I am unable to fathom it.

7 Where can I go to escape your spirit?
Where can I flee to escape your presence?

8 If I were to ascend to heaven, you would be there.
If I were to sprawl out in Sheol, there you would be.

9 If I were to fly away on the wings of the dawn,
and settle down on the other side of the sea,

10 even there your hand would guide me,
your right hand would grab hold of me.

11 If I were to say, “Certainly the darkness will cover me,
and the light will turn to night all around me,”

12 even the darkness is not too dark for you to see,
and the night is as bright as day;
darkness and light are the same to you.

13 Certainly you made my mind and heart;
you wove me together in my mother’s womb.

14 I will give you thanks because your deeds are awesome and amazing.
You knew me thoroughly;

15 my bones were not hidden from you,
when I was made in secret
and sewed together in the depths of the earth.

16 Your eyes saw me when I was inside the womb.
All the days ordained for me
were recorded in your scroll
before one of them came into existence.

17 How difficult it is for me to fathom your thoughts about me, O God!
How vast is their sum total!

18 If I tried to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand.
Even if I finished counting them,
I would still have to contend with you.

19 If only you would kill the wicked, O God!
Get away from me, you violent men!

20 They rebel against you and act deceitfully;
your enemies lie.

21 O Lord, do I not hate those who hate you,
and despise those who oppose you?

22 I absolutely hate them,
they have become my enemies!

23 Examine me, and probe my thoughts!
Test me, and know my concerns!

24 See if there is any idolatrous tendency in me,
and lead me in the reliable ancient path!
