1Jehová Dios mío, en ti he confiado; Sálvame de todos los que me persiguen, y líbrame,
2No sea que desgarren mi alma cual león, Y me destrocen sin que haya quien me libre.
3Jehová Dios mío, si yo he hecho esto, Si hay en mis manos iniquidad;
4Si he dado mal pago al que estaba en paz conmigo (Antes he libertado al que sin causa era mi enemigo),
5Persiga el enemigo mi alma, y alcáncela; Huelle en tierra mi vida, Y mi honra ponga en el polvo.
6Levántate, oh Jehová, en tu ira; Álzate en contra de la furia de mis angustiadores, Y despierta en favor mío el juicio que mandaste.
7Te rodeará congregación de pueblos, Y sobre ella vuélvete a sentar en alto.
8Jehová juzgará a los pueblos; Júzgame, oh Jehová, conforme a mi justicia, Y conforme a mi integridad.
9Fenezca ahora la maldad de los inicuos, mas establece tú al justo; Porque el Dios justo prueba la mente y el corazón.
10Mi escudo está en Dios, Que salva a los rectos de corazón.
11Dios es juez justo, Y Dios está airado contra el impío todos los días.
12Si no se arrepiente, él afilará su espada; Armado tiene ya su arco, y lo ha preparado.
13Asimismo ha preparado armas de muerte, Y ha labrado saetas ardientes.
14He aquí, el impío concibió maldad, Se preñó de iniquidad, Y dio a luz engaño.
15Pozo ha cavado, y lo ha ahondado; Y en el hoyo que hizo caerá.
16Su iniquidad volverá sobre su cabeza, Y su agravio caerá sobre su propia coronilla.
17Alabaré a Jehová conforme a su justicia, Y cantaré al nombre de Jehová el Altísimo.
