1Hymne de David. Garde-moi, ô Dieu! Car je cherche en toi mon refuge.
1The prayer of David. Hear, O Lord, my justice: attend to my supplication. Give ear unto my prayer, which proceedeth not from deceitful lips.
2Je dis à l’Éternel: Tu es mon Seigneur, Tu es mon souverain bien!
2Let my judgment come forth from thy countenance: let thy eyes behold the things that are equitable.
3Les saints qui sont dans le pays, Les hommes pieux sont l’objet de toute mon affection.
3Thou hast proved my heart, and visited it by night, thou hast tried me by fire: and iniquity hath not been found in me.
4On multiplie les idoles, on court après les dieux étrangers: Je ne répands pas leurs libations de sang, Je ne mets pas leurs noms sur mes lèvres.
4That my mouth may not speak the works of men: for the sake of the words of thy lips, I have kept hard ways.
5L’Éternel est mon partage et mon calice; C’est toi qui m’assures mon lot;
5Perfect thou my goings in thy paths: that my footsteps be not moved.
6Un héritage délicieux m’est échu, Une belle possession m’est accordée.
6I have cried to thee, for thou, O God, hast heard me: O incline thy ear unto me, and hear my words.
7Je bénis l’Éternel, mon conseiller; La nuit même mon cœur m’exhorte.
7Shew forth thy wonderful mercies; thou who savest them that trust in thee.
8J’ai constamment l’Éternel sous mes yeux; Quand il est à ma droite, je ne chancelle pas.
8From them that resist thy right hand keep me, as the apple of thy eye. Protect me under the shadow of thy wings.
9Aussi mon cœur est dans la joie, mon esprit dans l’allégresse, Et mon corps repose en sécurité.
9From the face of the wicked who have afflicted me. My enemies have surrounded my soul:
10Car tu ne livreras pas mon âme au séjour des morts, Tu ne permettras pas que ton bien-aimé voie la corruption.
10They have shut up their fat: their mouth hath spoken proudly.
11Tu me feras connaître le sentier de la vie; Il y a d’abondantes joies devant ta face, Des délices éternelles à ta droite.
11They have cast me forth and now they have surrounded me: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth.

14From the enemies of thy hand. O Lord, divide them from the few of the earth in their life: their belly is filled from thy hidden stores. They are full of children: and they have left to their little ones the rest of their substance.
