1Unto the end, for Idithun, a psalm of David.
1Au chef des chantres. Sur instruments à cordes. De David.
2Shall not my soul be subject to God? for from him is my salvation.
2O Dieu! Écoute mes cris, Sois attentif à ma prière!
3For he is my God and my saviour: he is my protector, I shall be moved no more.
3Du bout de la terre je crie à toi, le cœur abattu; Conduis-moi sur le rocher que je ne puis atteindre!
4How long do you rush in upon a man? you all kill, as if you were thrusting down a leaning wall, and a tottering fence.
4Car tu es pour moi un refuge, Une tour forte, en face de l’ennemi.
5But they have thought to cast away my price; I ran in thirst: they blessed with their mouth, but cursed with their heart.
5Je voudrais séjourner éternellement dans ta tente, Me réfugier à l’abri de tes ailes. — Pause.
6But be thou, O my soul, subject to God: for from him is my patience.
6Car toi, ô Dieu! Tu exauces mes vœux, Tu me donnes l’héritage de ceux qui craignent ton nom.
7For he is my God and my saviour: he is my helper, I shall not be moved.
7Ajoute des jours aux jours du roi; Que ses années se prolongent à jamais!
8In God is my salvation and my glory: he is the God of my help, and my hope is in God.
8Qu’il reste sur le trône éternellement devant Dieu! Fais que ta bonté et ta fidélité veillent sur lui!
9Trust in him, all ye congregation of people: pour out your hearts before him. God is our helper for ever.
9Alors je chanterai sans cesse ton nom, En accomplissant chaque jour mes vœux.
10But vain are the sons of men, the sons of men are liars in the balances: that by vanity they may together deceive.
