1Unto the end, for the morning protection, a psalm for David.
1Au chef des chantres. Psaume de David.
2O God my God, look upon me: why hast thou forsaken me? Far from my salvation are the words of my sins.
2Éternel! Le roi se réjouit de ta protection puissante. Oh! Comme ton secours le remplit d’allégresse!
3O my God, I shall cry by day, and thou wilt not hear: and by night, and it shall not be reputed as folly in me.
3Tu lui as donné ce que désirait son cœur, Et tu n’as pas refusé ce que demandaient ses lèvres. — Pause.
4But thou dwellest in the holy place, the praise of Israel.
4Car tu l’as prévenu par les bénédictions de ta grâce, Tu as mis sur sa tête une couronne d’or pur.
5In thee have our fathers hoped: they have hoped, and thou hast delivered them.
5Il te demandait la vie, tu la lui as donnée, Une vie longue pour toujours et à perpétuité.
6They cried to thee, and they were saved: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.
6Sa gloire est grande à cause de ton secours; Tu places sur lui l’éclat et la magnificence.
7But I am a worm, and no man: the reproach of men, and the outcast of the people.
7Tu le rends à jamais un objet de bénédictions, Tu le combles de joie devant ta face.
8All they that saw me have laughed me to scorn: they have spoken with the lips, and wagged the head.
8Le roi se confie en l’Éternel; Et, par la bonté du Très-Haut, il ne chancelle pas.
9He hoped in the Lord, let him deliver him: let him save him, seeing he delighteth in him.
9Ta main trouvera tous tes ennemis, Ta droite trouvera ceux qui te haïssent.
10For thou art he that hast drawn me out of the womb: my hope from the breasts of my mother.
10Tu les rendras tels qu’une fournaise ardente, Le jour où tu te montreras; L’Éternel les anéantira dans sa colère, Et le feu les dévorera.
11I was cast upon thee from the womb. From my mother’s womb thou art my God,
11Tu feras disparaître leur postérité de la terre, Et leur race du milieu des fils de l’homme.
12Depart not from me. For tribulation is very near: for there is none to help me.
12Ils ont projeté du mal contre toi, Ils ont conçu de mauvais desseins, mais ils seront impuissants.
13Many calves have surrounded me: fat bulls have besieged me.
13Car tu leur feras tourner le dos, Et avec ton arc tu tireras sur eux.
14They have opened their mouths against me, as a lion ravening and roaring.
14Lève-toi, Éternel, avec ta force! Nous voulons chanter, célébrer ta puissance.
15I am poured out like water; and all my bones are scattered. My heart is become like wax melting in the midst of my bowels.
