| Berean Standard Bible tier 2 | Nueva Biblia Viva tier 3 |
|---|---|
| BSB 1 A prayer of David. Hear, O LORD, my righteous plea; listen to my cry. Give ear to my prayer—it comes from lips free of deceit. | NBVE 1 Oh, Señor oye mi ruego para que se haga justicia; escucha mi clamor para obtener ayuda; presta oído a mi oración porque sale de un corazón sincero. ¡Presta oído a mi angustioso clamor! |
| BSB 2 May my vindication come from Your presence; may Your eyes see what is right. | NBVE 2 Declara mi inocencia, Señor, pues tú conoces a los justos. |
| BSB 3 You have tried my heart; You have visited me in the night. You have tested me and found no evil; I have resolved not to sin with my mouth. | NBVE 3 Has probado mis pensamientos; aun de noche has examinado mi corazón. Has buscado dentro de mí sin hallar nada incorrecto y sabes que he dicho la verdad. |
| BSB 4 As for the deeds of men—by the word of Your lips I have avoided the ways of the violent. | NBVE 4 He cumplido tus mandatos y no he imitado a los hombres crueles y perversos. |
| BSB 5 My steps have held to Your paths; my feet have not slipped. | NBVE 5 Mis pasos no se han desviado de tus sendas; no he dudado en seguirte. |
| BSB 6 I call on You, O God, for You will answer me. Incline Your ear to me; hear my words. | NBVE 6 Oro así porque sé que me responderás, oh Dios. ¡Sí!, inclinas a mí tu oído y escuchas mi oración. |
| BSB 7 Show the wonders of Your loving devotion, You who save by Your right hand those who seek refuge from their foes. | NBVE 7 Muéstrame en forma admirable tu gran amor, oh Salvador de cuantos buscan tu auxilio contra sus enemigos. |
| BSB 8 Keep me as the apple of Your eye; hide me in the shadow of Your wings | NBVE 8 Protégeme como lo harías con la niña de tus ojos; escóndeme bajo la sombra de tus alas. |
| BSB 9 from the wicked who assail me, from my mortal enemies who surround me. | NBVE 9 Protégeme de los malvados que me atacan, de los asesinos enemigos que me rodean. |
| BSB 10 They have closed their callous hearts; their mouths speak with arrogance. | NBVE 10 Son despiadados y arrogantes. Escúchalos alardear. |
| BSB 11 They have tracked us down, and now surround us; their eyes are set to cast us to the ground, | NBVE 11 Se abalanzan contra mí, prontos a derribarme. |
| BSB 12 like a lion greedy for prey, like a young lion lurking in ambush. | NBVE 12 Son como leones ansiosos de destrozarme; como leoncillos agazapados en busca de su oportunidad. |
| BSB 13 Arise, O LORD, confront them! Bring them to their knees; deliver me from the wicked by Your sword, | NBVE 13 Señor, levántate y haz que caigan de rodillas. Rescátame de los malvados con tu espada. |
| BSB 14 from such men, O LORD, by Your hand—from men of the world whose portion is in this life. May You fill the bellies of Your treasured ones and satisfy their sons, so they leave their abundance to their children. | NBVE 14 Líbrame con tu poderosa mano de estos mortales cuyo único interés está en la ganancia terrena. Con tus tesoros les has llenado el vientre, sus hijos han tenido abundancia, y hasta ha sobrado para sus descendientes. |
| BSB 15 As for me, I will behold Your face in righteousness; when I awake, I will be satisfied in Your presence. | NBVE 15 Pero yo en justicia contemplaré tu rostro; me bastará con verte cuando despierte. |
