Psaumes 4
Nouvelle Edition de Genève – NEG1979
Sécurité dans la détresse
4 Au chef des chantres. Avec instruments à cordes. Psaume de David.
2 Quand je crie, réponds-moi, Dieu de ma justice!
Quand je suis dans la détresse, sauve-moi!
Aie pitié de moi, écoute ma prière!
3 Fils des hommes, jusqu’à quand ma gloire sera-t-elle outragée?
Jusqu’à quand aimerez-vous la vanité,
Chercherez-vous le mensonge? – Pause.
4 Sachez que l’Eternel s’est choisi un homme pieux;
L’Eternel entend, quand je crie à lui.
5 Tremblez, et ne péchez point[a];
Parlez en vos cœurs sur votre couche, puis taisez-vous. – Pause.
6 Offrez des sacrifices de justice,
Et confiez-vous en l’Eternel.
7 Plusieurs disent: Qui nous fera voir le bonheur?
Fais lever sur nous la lumière de ta face, ô Eternel!
8 Tu mets dans mon cœur plus de joie qu’ils n’en ont
Quand abondent leur froment et leur moût.
9 Je me couche et je m’endors en paix,
Car toi seul, ô Eternel! tu me donnes la sécurité dans ma demeure.

The Safety of the Faithful
To the [a]Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.
4 Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness!
You have relieved me in my distress;
[b]Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.
2 How long, O you sons of men,
Will you turn my glory to shame?
How long will you love worthlessness
And seek falsehood? Selah
3 But know that (A)the Lord has [c]set apart for Himself him who is godly;
The Lord will hear when I call to Him.
4 (B)Be[d] angry, and do not sin.
(C)Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still. Selah
5 Offer (D)the sacrifices of righteousness,
And (E)put your trust in the Lord.
6 There are many who say,
“Who will show us any good?”
(F)Lord, lift up the light of Your countenance upon us.
7 You have put (G)gladness in my heart,
More than in the season that their grain and wine increased.
8 (H)I will both lie down in peace, and sleep;
(I)For You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.
