Antiguo Testamento

Psalms — Capítulo 45

Jesus and the apostles loved the book of Psalms—they quoted from it and lived out of it. These ancient prayers and praises of Israel provide a bridge between the Old Testament and the New Testament; the themes introduced in the psalms find further development in the New Testament. Where David’s dynasty failed, Jesus gives hope. Yet, certain expectations that emerge in the book of Psalms still r…

Texto — Reina-Valera 1960

1Rebosa mi corazón palabra buena; Dirijo al rey mi canto; Mi lengua es pluma de escribiente muy ligero.

2Eres el más hermoso de los hijos de los hombres; La gracia se derramó en tus labios; Por tanto, Dios te ha bendecido para siempre.

3Ciñe tu espada sobre el muslo, oh valiente, Con tu gloria y con tu majestad.

4En tu gloria sé prosperado; Cabalga sobre palabra de verdad, de humildad y de justicia, Y tu diestra te enseñará cosas terribles.

5Tus saetas agudas, Con que caerán pueblos debajo de ti, Penetrarán en el corazón de los enemigos del rey.

6Tu trono, oh Dios, es eterno y para siempre; Cetro de justicia es el cetro de tu reino.

7Has amado la justicia y aborrecido la maldad; Por tanto, te ungió Dios, el Dios tuyo, Con óleo de alegría más que a tus compañeros.

8Mirra, áloe y casia exhalan todos tus vestidos; Desde palacios de marfil te recrean.

9Hijas de reyes están entre tus ilustres; Está la reina a tu diestra con oro de Ofir.

10Oye, hija, y mira, e inclina tu oído; Olvida tu pueblo, y la casa de tu padre;

11Y deseará el rey tu hermosura; E inclínate a él, porque él es tu señor.

12Y las hijas de Tiro vendrán con presentes; Implorarán tu favor los ricos del pueblo.

13Toda gloriosa es la hija del rey en su morada; De brocado de oro es su vestido.

14Con vestidos bordados será llevada al rey; Vírgenes irán en pos de ella, Compañeras suyas serán traídas a ti.

15Serán traídas con alegría y gozo; Entrarán en el palacio del rey.

16En lugar de tus padres serán tus hijos, A quienes harás príncipes en toda la tierra.

17Haré perpetua la memoria de tu nombre en todas las generaciones, Por lo cual te alabarán los pueblos eternamente y para siempre.

Ps 45 This psalm celebrates a royal wedding; it might have been sung on many occasions and not just at one wedding.
