Psalms 79

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	BIBLIA
1 Unto the end. For those who will be changed. The testimony of Asaph. A Psalm.	1 Salmo. De Asaf. Oh Dios, han invadido tu heredad las gentes, han profanado tu sagrado Templo; han dejado en ruinas a Jerusalén,
2 The One who reigns over Israel: Be attentive. For you lead Joseph like a sheep. The One who sits upon the cherubim: Shine forth	2 han entregado el cadáver de tus siervos por comida a los pájaros del cielo, la carne de tus amigos a las bestias de la tierra.
3 in the presence of Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh. Awaken your power and draw near, so as to accomplish our salvation.	3 Han derramado como agua su sangre en torno a Jerusalén, ¡y nadie sepultaba!
4 Convert us, O God. And reveal your face, and we will be saved.	4 Nos hemos hecho la irrisión de los vecinos, burla y escarnio de nuestros circundantes.
5 O Lord, God of hosts, how long will you be angry over the prayer of your servant?	5 ¿Hasta cuándo, Yahveh, tu cólera? ¿hasta el fin? ¿han de quemar tus celos como fuego?
6 How long will you feed us the bread of tears, and give us to drink a full measure of tears?	6 Derrama tu furor sobre las gentes, que no te reconocen, y sobre los reinos que tu nombre no invocan.
7 You have set us as a contradiction to our neighbors. And our enemies have ridiculed us.	7 Porque han devorado a Jacob y han devastado su dominio.
8 O God of hosts, convert us. And reveal your face, and we will be saved.	8 No recuerdes contra nosotros culpas de antepasados, vengan presto a nuestro encuentro tus ternuras, pues estamos abatidos del todo;
9 You have transferred a vineyard from Egypt. You have cast out the Gentiles, and planted it.	9 ayúdanos, Dios de nuestra salvación, por amor de la gloria de tu nombre; líbranos, borra nuestros pecados, por causa de tu nombre.
10 You were the leader of the journey in its sight. You planted its roots, and it filled the earth.	10 ¿Por qué han de decir las gentes: «¿Dónde está su Dios?» ¡Que entre las gentes se conozca, a nuestros propios ojos, la venganza de la sangre de tus siervos derramada!
11 Its shadow covered the hills, and its branches covered the cedars of God.	11 ¡Llegue hasta ti el suspiro del cautivo, con la grandeza de tu brazo preserva a los hijos de la muerte!
12 It extended its new branches even to the sea, and its new seedlings even to the river.	12 ¡Devuelve siete veces a nuestros vecinos, en su entraña, su afrenta, la afrenta que te han hecho, Señor!
13 So then, why have you destroyed its walls, so that all those who pass by the way gather its grapes?	13 Y nosotros, tu pueblo, rebaño de tu pasto, eternamente te daremos gracias, de edad en edad repetiremos tu alabanza.
14 The wild boar of the forest has trampled it, and a single wild beast has laid waste to it.
15 Turn back, O God of hosts. Look down from heaven, and see, and visit this vineyard;
16 and complete what your right hand has planted, and look upon the son of man, whom you have confirmed for yourself.
17 Whatever has been set on fire and dug under will perish at the rebuke of your countenance.
18 Let your hand be over the man on your right, and over the son of man, whom you have confirmed for yourself.
19 For we do not depart from you, and you will revive us. And we will invoke your name.
20 O Lord, God of hosts, convert us. And reveal your face, and we will be saved.
