Salmos 9

Reina Valera 1909 (RV1909) · Español

1 Al Músico principal: sobre Muth-labben: Salmo de David. TE alabaré, oh Jehová, con todo mi corazón; contaré todas tus maravillas. 2 Alegraréme y regocijaréme en ti: cantaré á tu nombre, oh Altísimo; 3 Por haber sido mis enemigos vueltos atrás: caerán y perecerán delante de ti. 4 Porque has hecho mi juicio y mi causa: sentástete en silla juzgando justicia. 5 Reprendiste gentes, destruiste al malo, raíste el nombre de ellos para siempre jamás. 6 Oh enemigo, acabados son para siempre los asolamientos; y las ciudades que derribaste, su memoria pereció con ellas. 7 Mas Jehová permanecerá para siempre: dispuesto ha su trono para juicio. 8 Y él juzgará el mundo con justicia; y juzgará los pueblos con rectitud. 9 Y será Jehová refugio al pobre, refugio para el tiempo de angustia. 10 Y en ti confiarán los que conocen tu nombre; por cuanto tú, oh Jehová, no desamparaste á los que te buscaron. 11 Cantad á Jehová, que habita en Sión: noticiad en los pueblos sus obras. 12 Porque demandando la sangre se acordó de ellos: no se olvidó del clamor de los pobres. 13 Ten misericordia de mí, Jehová: mira mi aflicción que padezco de los que me aborrecen, tú que me levantas de las puertas de la muerte; 14 Porque cuente yo todas tus alabanzas en las puertas de la hija de Sión, y me goce en tu salud. 15 Hundiéronse las gentes en la fosa que hicieron; en la red que escondieron fué tomado su pie. 16 Jehová fué conocido en el juicio que hizo; en la obra de sus manos fué enlazado el malo. (Higaion. Selah.) 17 Los malos serán trasladados al infierno, todas las gentes que se olvidan de Dios. 18 Porque no para siempre será olvidado el pobre; ni la esperanza de los pobres perecerá perpetuamente. 19 Levántate, oh Jehová; no se fortalezca el hombre; sean juzgadas las gentes delante de ti. 20 Pon, oh Jehová, temor en ellos: conozcan las gentes que son no más que hombres. (Selah.)

Salmos 9:1

PSALM 9

Psa 9:1-20. Upon Muthlabben, or, after the manner according to "death to the Son," by which some song was known, to whose air or melody the musician is directed to perform this Psalm. This mode of denoting a song by some prominent word or words is still common (compare Psa 22:1). The Psalmist praises God for deliverance from his enemies and celebrates the divine government, for providing security to God's people and punishment to the wicked. Thus encouraging himself, he prays for new occasions to recount God's mercies, and confident of His continued judgment on the wicked and vindication of the oppressed, he implores a prompt and efficient manifestation of the divine sovereignty.

1. Heartfelt gratitude will find utterance.

Salmos 9:3-5

3-5. When ... are turned back--It is the result of God's power alone. He, as a righteous Judge (Psa 7:11), vindicates His people. He rebukes by acts as well as words (Psa 6:1; 18:15), and so effectually as to destroy the names of nations as well as persons.

Salmos 9:6

6. Literally, "As to the enemy finished are his ruins for ever. Thou [God] hast destroyed," &c. (1Sa 15:3, 7; 27:8, 9). The wicked are utterly undone. Their ruins shall never be repaired.

Salmos 9:7-8

7-8. God's eternal possession of a throne of justice is contrasted with the ruin of the wicked.

Salmos 9:9-10

9-10. The oppressed, and all who know Him (Psa 5:3; 7:1), find Him a sure refuge.

Salmos 9:12

12. for blood--that is, murders (Psa 5:6), including all the oppressions of His people.

maketh inquisition--(compare Ge 9:5). He will avenge their cause.

Salmos 9:13

13. gates--or, "regions."

of death--Gates being the entrance is put for the bounds.

Salmos 9:14

14. gates ... Zion--The enclosure of the city (compare Psa 48:12; Is 23:12), or, church, as denoted by this phrase contrasted with that of death, carries out the idea of exaltation as well as deliverance. Signal favors should lead us to render signal and public thanks.

Salmos 9:15-16

15-16. The undesigned results of the devices of the wicked prove them to be of God's overruling or ordering, especially when those results are destructive to the wicked themselves.

Salmos 9:17

17. shall be turned--or, "shall turn," retreating under God's vengeance, and driven by Him to the extreme of destruction, even hell itself. Those who forget God are classed with the depraved and openly profane.

Salmos 9:18

18. (Compare Psa 13:1-6).

the needy--literally, "poor," as deprived of anything; hence miserable.

expectation of the poor--or, "meek," "humble," made so by affliction.

Salmos 9:19

19. Arise--(compare Psa 4:7).

let not man--(Psa 8:4).

let ... be judged--and of course condemned.

Salmos 9:20

20. By their effectual subjection, make them to realize their frail nature (Psa 8:4), and deter them from all conceit and future rebellion.
