Psalms 14
1 For the end, Psalm of David. The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They have corrupted [themselves], and become abominable in their devices; there is none that does goodness, there is not even so much as one.
Au maître chantre. Psaume de David. L'insensé a dit en son cœur: Il n'y a point de Dieu. Ils se sont corrompus, ils ont commis des actions abominables, il n'y a personne qui fasse le bien.
2 The Lord looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any that understood, or sought after god.
L'Éternel abaisse des cieux son regard sur les fils des hommes, pour voir s'il y a quelqu'un qui soit intelligent, qui recherche Dieu.
3 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become good for nothing, there is none that does good, no not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness; their feet are swift to shed blood: destruction and misery are in their ways; and the way of peace they have not known: there is no fear of God before their eyes.
Ils se sont tous égarés, ils se sont corrompus tous ensemble; il n'y en a point qui fasse le bien, non pas même un seul.
4 Will not all the workers of iniquity know, who eat up my people as they would eat bread? they have not called upon the Lord.
Ont-ils perdu le sens, tous ces ouvriers d'iniquité? Ils dévorent mon peuple comme s'ils mangeaient du pain; ils n'invoquent point l'Éternel.
5 There were they alarmed with fear, where there was no fear; for God is in the righteous generation.
C'est là qu'ils trembleront d'épouvante; car Dieu est au milieu de la race juste.
6 You have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the Lord is his hope.
Vous faites honte à l'affligé de son attente, parce que l'Éternel est son refuge!
7 Who will bring the salvation of Israel out of Sion? when the Lord brings back the captivity of his people, let Jacob exult, and Israel be glad.
Oh! qui donnera de Sion la délivrance d'Israël? Quand l'Éternel ramènera les captifs de son peuple, Jacob sera dans l'allégresse, Israël se réjouira.
