Psalms 119
1 (Yahweh is pleased with/Happy are) those about whom no one can say truthfully that they have done things that are wrong, those who always obey the laws of Yahweh.
Alléluiah! Heureux ceux qui, dans leur voie, conservent l'innocence, et cheminent en la loi du Seigneur.
2 Yahweh is pleased with those who (obey his requirements/do what he has instructed them to do), those who request him with their entire inner beings to help them [to do that].
Heureux ceux qui méditent ses témoignages, et qui le cherchent de toute leur âme.
3 They do not do things that are wrong; they behave like Yahweh wants them to.
Car les ouvriers d'iniquité n'ont point marché dans ses voies.
4 Yahweh, you have given [us] (your principles of behavior/all the things that you have declared that we should do), [and you told us] to obey them carefully.
Tu as intimé tes commandements, pour qu'ils soient scrupuleusement gardés.
5 I desire that I will faithfully/always obey all (your statutes/that you have said that [we] should do).
Puissent mes voies être dirigées vers l'accomplissement de tes ordonnances!
6 If I continually (heed/pay attention to) all (your commands/that you have commanded), I will not be disgraced/ashamed.
Alors je ne serai point confondu, puisque j'aurai eu mes yeux sur tous tes commandements.
7 When I learn [all of] (your regulations/the rules that you have given [to us)], I will praise you with a pure inner being [IDM].
Je te rendrai gloire en la droiture de mon cœur, de ce que j'aurai appris les jugements de ta justice.
8 I will obey all (your statutes/that you have decreed that [we] should do); do not desert/abandon me!
Je garderai tes ordonnances; ne me délaisse pas sans retour.
9 [I know] [RHQ] how a youth can (keep his life pure/avoid sinning); it is by obeying what you have told us to do.
Comment le jeune homme maintiendra-t-il droite sa voie? En gardant tes paroles.
10 I try to serve you with my entire inner being; do not allow me to (wander away from obeying/disobey) (your commands/what you have commanded).
Je t'ai cherché de toute mon âme; ne me repousse pas de tes commandements.
11 I have (memorized/stored in my mind) [many of] (your words/what you have promised) in order that I will not sin against you.
J'ai renfermé dans le secret de mon cœur toutes tes paroles pour ne point pécher contre toi.
12 Yahweh, I praise you; teach me (your statutes/what you have declared).
Tu es béni, Seigneur, enseigne-moi tes préceptes.
13 I [MTY] tell others (the regulations/the rules that you have given [to us)].
J'ai publié de mes lèvres tous les jugements de ta bouche.
14 I like to obey (your requirements/what you have instructed [us to do)]; I enjoy that more than being very rich.
Je me suis complu dans la voie de tes témoignages, autant que dans la possession de toutes les richesses.
15 I will (study/think about) (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do), and I will pay attention to what you have showed [me].
Je méditerai sur tes commandements, et je considèrerai tes voies.
16 I will be happy [to obey] (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do), and I will not forget your words.
J'étudierai tes préceptes, et je n'oublierai point tes paroles.
17 Do good things for me, who serve you, in order that I may continue to live and obey (your words/what you have told us to do) during all my life.
Récompense ton serviteur; et je vivrai, et je garderai tes paroles.
18 Open my mind in order that I may know the wonderful things that [are written] in your laws.
Ote le voile de mes yeux, et je comprendrai les merveilles de ta loi.
19 I am living [here] on the earth for only a short time; (do not prevent me from [understanding]/help me to understand) [LIT] (your commands/what you have commanded).
Je suis passager sur la terre, ne me cache pas tes commandements.
20 In my inner being I strongly desire to know (your regulations/the rules that you have given to us) all the time.
Mon âme a brûlé, en tout temps, du désir de ta loi.
21 You rebuke those who are proud; cursed are those who disobey (your commands/what you have commanded).
Tu as châtié les superbes; maudits soient ceux qui s'écartent de tes commandements.
22 Do not allow them to continue to insult and scorn me; [I request this] because I have obeyed what you have instructed us to do.
Délivre-moi de l'opprobre et du mépris, car j'ai recherché tes témoignages.
23 Rulers gather together and plan ways to harm me, but I will (meditate on/study) (your statutes/what you have decreed).
Les princes se sont assis, et ils ont mal parlé de moi; mais ton serviteur méditait sur tes ordonnances.
24 I am delighted with (your requirements/what you have instructed [us to do)]; [it is as though] they are my advisors.
Et tes témoignages sont mon étude, et tes conseils mon conseil.
25 [I think that] I will soon die [IDM]; revive/heal me, as you have told me that you would.
Mon âme est attachée à la terre; vivifie-moi selon ta promesse.
26 When I told you about my behavior, you answered me; teach me (your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do).
Je t'ai fait connaître mes voies, et tu m'as écouté; enseigne-moi tes préceptes.
27 Help me to understand (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do), and [then] I will (meditate on/think about) the wonderful things that you [have done].
Apprends-moi la voie de tes préceptes, et je méditerai sur tes merveilles.
28 I am very sad/sorrowful [IDM], with the result that I have no strength; enable me to be strong [again], like you promised me that you would do.
Mon âme s'est assoupie dans l'abattement; fortifie-moi de tes paroles.
29 Prevent me from doing what is wrong, and be kind to me by teaching me your laws.
Éloigne de moi la voie de l'iniquité, et fais-moi miséricorde à cause de ta loi.
30 I have decided that I will faithfully/always [obey you]; I have (paid attention to/heeded) (your regulations/the rules that you have given to us).
J'ai choisi la voie de la vérité, et je n'ai point oublié tes jugements.
31 Yahweh, I try to carefully hold fast to what you have instructed [us to do]; do not [abandon me, with the result that] I would become disgraced.
Je me suis attaché à tes témoignages, Seigneur; ne m'humilie pas.
32 I will eagerly obey [IDM] (your commands/what you have commanded), because you have enabled me to understand more [what you want me to do].
J'ai couru dans la voie de tes commandements, lorsque tu as dilaté mon cœur.
33 Yahweh, teach me the meaning of (your statutes/the things that you have decreed that we should do), and [then] I will obey them, every one of them.
Fais, Seigneur, que la voie de tes commandements soit ma loi, et je la chercherai toujours.
34 Help me to understand your laws in order that I may obey them with all my inner being.
Donne-moi l'intelligence, et j'approfondirai ta loi, et je la garderai dans le fond de mon âme.
35 I am happy with (your commands/what you have commanded), so (lead me along the paths/enable me to walk on the road) that you [have chosen for me].
Guide-moi dans le sentier de tes commandements; car c'est celui-là que j'ai désiré.
36 Cause me to want to obey your rules and not to want to become rich.
Incline mon cœur vers tes témoignages, et non vers la convoitise.
37 Do not allow me to look at things that are worthless, and allow me to continue to live, like you promised that you would do.
Détourne mes yeux, pour qu'ils ne voient point les vanités; vivifie-moi en ta loi.
38 [Because] I serve you, do what you promised to do for me, which is what you also promise to do for [all] those who revere you.
Confirme ta parole en ton serviteur, pour qu'il craigne de te déplaire.
39 [People] insult me; protect me from those insults, [because] I hate them. The (regulations/rules that you have given [to us]) are [very] good!
Ôte-moi l'opprobre du péché que j'ai appréhendé; car tes jugements me sont délectables.
40 I very much desire [to obey] (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do); because you are righteous, allow me to continue to live (OR, be good to me).
Voilà que j'ai désiré tes commandements; vivifie-moi en ta justice.
41 Yahweh, show me that you faithfully love me, and rescue/save me, like you have said/promised that you would.
Seigneur, que ta miséricorde me vienne, et ton salut, comme tu me l'as promis.
42 After you do that, I will be able to reply to those who insult me, because I trust in (your word/what you have promised that you would do).
Et je pourrai répondre à ceux qui m'outragent, car j'ai espéré en tes paroles.
43 Always enable me to [LIT] speak your truth, because I have confidence in (your regulations/the rules that you have given us).
Ne retire point à jamais de ma bouche la parole de vérité, car j'ai surabondamment espéré en tes jugements.
44 I will always obey your laws, forever.
Et je garderai ta loi toujours, dans tous les siècles des siècles.
45 I will be free [from (affliction/my enemies’ attacks)], because I have tried [to obey] (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Et je marchais au large, parce que j'avais recherché tes commandements.
46 I will tell to kings (your requirements/what you have instructed us to do); and [because I did not abandon you], those kings will not cause me to be ashamed.
Et devant les rois je parlais de tes témoignages, et je n'avais aucune honte.
47 I am delighted to [obey] (your commands/what you have commanded), and I love them.
Et je méditais tes commandements, que j'ai toujours tant aimés.
48 I respect/revere [IDM] (your commands/what you have commanded), and I love them, and I will (meditate on/think about) (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).
Et j'ai levé les mains vers tes commandements, que j'aime, et j'ai médité sur tes préceptes.
49 Do not forget what you said/promised to do for me, who serve you, [because] what you have said has caused me to confidently expect [good things from you].
Souviens-toi de tes paroles à ton serviteur; en elles tu m'as donné d'espérer.
50 When I have been suffering, you comforted me; you did what you promised me, and that [PRS] revived me.
Elles m'ont consolé dans mon abaissement, et ta parole m'a vivifié.
51 Proud people are always making fun of me, but I do not (turn away from/stop) [obeying] your laws.
Les superbes ont agi envers moi avec une extrême injustice; mais je n'ai point dévié de ta loi.
52 Yahweh, when I think about (your regulations/the rules) that you gave to us long ago, I am comforted/encouraged.
Je me suis souvenu, Seigneur, de tes jugements éternels, et j'ai été consolé.
53 When [I see that] wicked people have disregarded your laws, I become very angry.
Le découragement m'a pris, à la vue des pécheurs qui abandonnaient ta loi.
54 While I have been living here for a short time on the earth, I have written songs about (your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do).
Mais, dans le lieu de mon pèlerinage, je chantais encore tes préceptes.
55 Yahweh, during the night I think about you [MTY], and [so] I obey your laws.
Je me souvenais de ton nom, Seigneur, pendant la nuit, et je gardais ta loi.
56 What I have always done is to obey (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Et cette grâce m'a été faite, parce que j'avais recherché tes préceptes.
57 Yahweh, you are the one whom I have chosen, and I promise to (obey your words/do what you have told us to do).
Tu es mon partage, Seigneur; j'ai dit que je garderais ta loi.
58 With all my inner being I plead with you to be good to me; be kind to me, like you promised/said that you would do.
J'ai demandé de toute mon âme à voir ton visage; fais-moi miséricorde selon ta parole.
59 I have thought about my behavior, and I [have decided to] return to [obeying] (your requirements/what you have instructed us to do).
J'ai pensé à tes voies, et j'ai tourné mes pas vers tes témoignages.
60 I hurry to obey (your commands/what you have commanded); I do not delay [at all].
Je me suis préparé sans trouble à garder tes commandements.
61 Wicked people have [tried to] seize me, [like a hunter tries to catch an animal] with a net [MET], but I do not forget your laws.
Les liens des pécheurs m'ont enlacé; mais je n'ai point oublié ta loi.
62 In the middle of the night I wake up, and I praise you for (your commands/the rules that you have given us to do); they are fair/just.
Au milieu de la nuit, je me levais pour te rendre grâce de tes jugements et de tes ordonnances.
63 I am a friend of all those who revere you, those who obey (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Je suis partisan de tous ceux qui te craignent et qui gardent tes commandements.
64 Yahweh, you faithfully/always love [people] all over the earth; teach me (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).
La terre, Seigneur, est pleine de tes miséricordes; enseigne-moi tous tes préceptes.
65 Yahweh, you have done good things for me, like you promised/said that you would do.
Seigneur, tu as usé de bonté avec ton serviteur, selon ta parole.
66 Teach me to think carefully before I decide what to do, and [teach me other things that I need to] know, because I believe [that it is good for us to obey] (your commands/what you have commanded).
Enseigne-moi la bonté, la discipline et la science, parce que j'ai eu foi en tes commandements.
67 Before you afflicted/punished me, I did things that were wrong, but now I obey (your words/what you have told us to do).
Avant d'être humilié, j'ai failli; aussi ai-je gardé ta parole.
68 You are [very] good, and what you do is good; teach me (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).
Tu es bon, Seigneur, et en ta bonté enseigne-moi tes ordonnances.
69 Proud people have told many lies about me, but [the truth is that] with all my inner being I obey (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
L'iniquité des superbes s'est multipliée contre moi; pour moi, j'approfondirai tes commandements au fond de mon cœur.
70 Those proud people (are stupid/do not understand your laws) [IDM], but [as for me], I am delighted with your laws.
Leur cœur s'est coagulé comme du laitage, et moi j'ai médité ta loi.
71 It was good for me that [you] afflicted/punished me, because the result was that I learned (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).
Il est heureux pour moi que tu m'aies humilié, pour que j'apprisse tes ordonnances.
72 The laws that you [MTY] gave/told [to us] are [worth] more to me than gold, more than thousands of pieces of gold and silver.
La loi qui sort de ta bouche est meilleure pour moi que des millions d'or et d'argent.
73 You created me and formed my body (OR, kept me safe); help me to be wise in order that I may learn (your commands/what you have commanded).
Ce sont tes mains qui m'ont formé et pétri; donne-moi l'intelligence, et je m'instruirai de tes commandements.
74 Those who have an awesome respect for you will see [what you have done for] me, and they will rejoice, because [they will see that] I have trusted in (your words/what you told us).
Ceux qui te craignent me verront, et ils seront réjouis, parce que j'ai surabondamment espéré en tes promesses.
75 Yahweh, I know that (your regulations/the rules that you have given to us) are right/fair and that you have afflicted/punished me because you faithfully do [what you have promised].
Seigneur, je sais que tes jugements sont la justice même, et que tu m'as humilié selon ta vérité.
76 Cause me to be comforted/encouraged by [knowing that] you faithfully love [me], like you said to me that you would do.
Et maintenant, que ta miséricorde me vienne et me console, comme tu l'as promis à ton serviteur.
77 Be merciful to me in order that I may [continue to] live, because I am delighted with your laws.
Que tes miséricordes me viennent, et je vivrai, parce que ta loi est l'objet de ma méditation.
78 Cause the proud people who falsely accuse me to be ashamed, [but] as for me, I will [continue] (meditating on/thinking about) (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Qu'ils soient confondus, les superbes, parce qu'ils ont été injustes envers moi; pour moi, je méditerai sur tes commandements.
79 Cause those who revere you to come [back] to me in order that they may (OR, specifically, those who) know (your requirements/what you have instructed [us to do]).
Que ceux qui te craignent viennent à moi, et ceux qui connaissent tes témoignages.
80 Enable me to perfectly [obey] (your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do) in order that I may not be ashamed [because of not doing that].
Qu'en tes préceptes mon cœur soit trouvé sans tache, pour que je ne sois point confondu.
81 I am very tired/exhausted while I wait for you to save [me from my enemies]; [but] I confidently expect that you will tell [me what you will do].
Mon âme s'est épuisée à réclamer ton secours, tant j'avais espéré en tes paroles!
82 My eyes are tired from waiting a long time for you to do what you promised/said that you would do, and I ask, “When will you help/encourage me?”
Mes yeux se sont éteints dans l'attente de ta parole, disant: Quand me consoleras-tu?
83 I have become [as useless as] [MET] a wineskin that is [shriveled from hanging a long time] in the smoke [inside a house], but I have not forgotten (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).
Me voici comme une outre pendant la gelée; et pourtant je n'ai point oublié tes préceptes.
84 How long must I wait? When will you punish those who (persecute/cause trouble for) me?
Combien ton serviteur comptera-t-il encore de jours? Quand jugeras-tu ceux qui me persécutent?
85 [It is as though] proud people have dug deep pits for me [to fall into], people who do not obey your laws.
Les méchants m'ont raconté des choses vaines; mais ce n'était point comme ta loi, Seigneur.
86 All (your commands are/what you have commanded is) trustworthy; [but] people are (persecuting/causing trouble for) me by telling lies [about me, so please] help me!
Tous tes commandements sont vérité; ils m'ont poursuivi injustement, protège-moi.
87 Those people have almost killed me, but I have not stopped [obeying] (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Peu s'en est fallu qu'ils ne m'aient achevé sur la terre; moi cependant je n'ai point délaissé tes commandements.
88 Because you faithfully love [me], allow me [to continue] to live in order that I may [continue to] obey (your rules/what you have instructed [us to do]).
Vivifie-moi selon ta miséricorde, et je garderai les témoignages de ta bouche.
89 Yahweh, your words will last forever; they will last as long as heaven lasts.
Seigneur, ta parole demeure dans le ciel éternellement;
90 You will faithfully [continue doing] ([for people who are not yet born/in every generation]) what you have (promised/said that you would do); you have put the earth in its place, and it remains firmly [there].
Ta vérité passe de génération en génération; tu as fondé la terre, et elle subsiste.
91 To this day, [all things on the earth] remain because you decided that they should remain; everything [on the earth] serves you.
Comme tu l'as réglé, le jour continue de paraître; car tout t'obéit.
92 If I had not been delighted [in obeying] your laws, I would have died because of what I was suffering.
Si ta loi n'était point ma continuelle étude, je périrais dans l'humiliation.
93 I will never forget (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do), because as a result of [my obeying them] you have enabled me to [continue to] live.
Je n'oublierai jamais tes ordonnances, car en elles tu m'as vivifié.
94 I belong to you; save/rescue me [from my enemies], because I have tried to obey (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Je suis à toi, sauve-moi; car j'ai recherché tes préceptes.
95 Wicked [men] are waiting to kill me, but I [will] think about what you have instructed [us to do].
Les pécheurs m'ont épié pour me perdre; mais j'avais compris tes témoignages.
96 I have learned that there is a limit/end for everything, but what you command (has no limits/never ends).
J'ai vu la fin de toute œuvre, même la plus parfaite; seule ta loi est éternelle.
97 I love your laws very much. I (meditate on/think about) them all during the day.
Que j'aime ta loi, Seigneur! elle est tout le jour l'objet de ma méditation.
98 Because I know (your commands/what you have commanded), and because I think about them all the time, I have become wiser than my enemies.
Plus qu'à mes ennemis tu m'as fait goûter ta loi, car elle est toujours devant moi.
99 I understand more than my teachers do, because I (meditate on/think about) (your requirements/what you have instructed us to do).
J'ai eu plus d'intelligence que ceux qui m'ont instruit, car tes témoignages sont ma méditation.
100 I understand more than [many] old people do, because I obey (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
J'ai eu plus d'intelligence que les anciens, car j'ai cherché tes commandements.
101 I have avoided all evil behavior in order that I may obey (your words/what you have told us to do).
J'ai détourné mes pieds de toute voie mauvaise, afin de garder tes paroles.
102 I have not (turned away from/quit) [obeying] (your regulations/the rules that you have given to us), because you have taught me [while I have studied them].
Je n'ai point dévié de tes jugements, parce que tu as été mon législateur.
103 [When I read] your words, they are like [MET] sweet things that I taste/eat, [yes], they are even sweeter than honey.
Que tes paroles sont douces à mon palais! elles le sont plus que le miel à ma bouche.
104 Because [I have learned] (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do), I am able to understand [many things]; therefore, I hate all evil things [that some people do].
Je tiens mon intelligence de tes préceptes; aussi ai-je en haine toute voie d'iniquité.
105 Your words are [like] [MET] a lamp to guide me; they are [like] a light [MET] to show me the path [that I should walk on].
Ta loi est la lampe de mes pieds et la lumière de mes sentiers.
106 I have solemnly promised, and I am solemnly promising it again, that I will [always] obey your (regulations/rules that you have given to us), and they are [all] fair/just.
J'ai juré et résolu de garder les jugements de ta justice.
107 Yahweh, I am suffering very much; cause me to be strong/healthy [again], as you have promised to do.
J'ai été profondément humilié, Seigneur; vivifie-moi selon ta parole.
108 Yahweh, when I thank you while I pray, it is [like] [MET] a sacrifice to you; [please] accept it, and teach me your (regulations/rules that you have given to us).
Seigneur, aie pour agréables les offrandes volontaires de ma bouche, et enseigne-moi tes jugements.
109 [My enemies are] often trying to kill me [IDM], but I do not forget your laws.
Mon âme est toujours en tes mains, et je n'ai point oublié ta loi.
110 Wicked [people] have tried to seize me [like a hunter tries to catch an animal] with a trap [MET], but I have not disobeyed (your principles of behavior/what you declared that we should do).
Les pécheurs m'ont tendu des pièges, et je n'ai point dévié de tes commandements.
111 (Your requirements/What you have instructed us to do) are my possession forever; because of them [PRS], I am joyful.
J'ai eu pour héritage éternel tes témoignages, et ils sont le tressaillement de mon cœur.
112 I (have decided/am determined) [IDM] to obey (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do) until the day that I die [MTY].
J'ai incliné mon cœur à toujours agir selon tes ordonnances, en vue de ma rétribution.
113 I hate people who are [only] partly committed to you, but I love your laws.
Je hais les méchants, et j'aime ta loi.
114 You are [like] a place where I can hide [from my enemies], and you are [like] a shield [MET] [behind which I am protected from them], and I trust in your promises.
Tu es mon champion et mon appui; j'ai surabondamment espéré en tes promesses.
115 You evil people, stay away from me in order than I may obey (my God’s commands/what my God has commanded)!
Éloignez-vous de moi, pervers, et j'approfondirai les commandements de mon Dieu.
116 Enable me to be strong, as you promised/said that you would do, in order that I may [continue to] live. I am confidently expecting [that you will restore me]; (do not disappoint me/do not allow me to be disappointed).
Soutiens-moi, Seigneur, selon ta parole, et vivifie-moi; et que je ne sois point confondu en mon attente.
117 Hold me up, in order that I will be safe and always (pay attention to/heed) (your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do).
Secours-moi, et je serai sauvé, et je méditerai toujours sur tes préceptes.
118 You reject all those who disobey (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do); but what they deceitfully plan to do will be (useless/in vain).
Tu as réduit à néant tous ceux qui se sont éloignés de tes jugements, parce que leur pensée est inique.
119 You get rid of all the wicked [people] on the earth like [SIM] [people throw away] trash; therefore I love what you have instructed us to do.
J'ai compté comme pécheurs tous les prévaricateurs de la terre; c'est pourquoi j'aime tes témoignages.
120 I [SYN] tremble because I am afraid of you; I am afraid [because you punish those who do not obey] (your regulations/the rules that you have given to us).
Transperce mes chairs de ta crainte, car j'ai toujours redouté tes jugements.
121 [But] I have done what is right and fair/just; [so] do not allow people to oppress/mistreat me.
J'ai été droit dans mes jugements et ma justice; ne me livre pas à ceux qui me nuisent.
122 Promise me that you will do good things for me and do not allow proud [people] to oppress me.
Affermis ton serviteur dans le bien; que les superbes ne le calomnient pas.
123 My eyes are tired from waiting a long time for you to rescue [me], for you to save [me] like you promised/said that you would.
Mes yeux ont défailli à force d'attendre mon salut et la parole de ton équité.
124 Do something for me to show that you faithfully love [me], and teach me (your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do).
Traite ton serviteur selon ta miséricorde, et enseigne-moi tes préceptes.
125 I am one who serves you; enable me to understand [what you want me to know] in order that I will know (your requirements/what you have instructed us to do).
Je suis ton serviteur; donne-moi l'intelligence, et je connaîtrai tes témoignages.
126 Yahweh, now is the time for you to [punish people] because they have disobeyed your laws.
Le temps d'agir est venu pour le Seigneur; car ils ont renversé ta loi.
127 Truly, I love (your commands/what you have commanded) more than I love gold; I love them more than I love [very] pure gold.
C'est pour cela que j'ai aimé tes commandements plus que l'or et la topaze.
128 So I conduct my life by (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do), and I hate all the evil things that [some people do].
Aussi me suis-je dirigé selon tes commandements; j'ai pris en haine la voie de l'iniquité.
129 (Your requirements are/All the things that you have instructed us to do are) wonderful, so I obey them with all my inner being.
Tes témoignages sont merveilleux; aussi mon âme les a recherchés.
130 When someone explains (your words/what you have said), [it is as though] they are lighting a light; what they say causes [even] people who have not learned your laws to be wise.
La manifestation de tes paroles éclairera et instruira les plus jeunes enfants.
131 I eagerly desire to know (your commands/what you have commanded), like [SIM] a [dog] that pants with its mouth open [wanting to be fed].
J'ai ouvert la bouche, et je suis resté haletant du désir de tes commandements.
132 Listen to me and act kindly to me, like you do to [all] those who love you [MTY].
Regarde-moi, et faites-moi miséricorde, comme il est juste envers ceux qui aiment ton nom.
133 Guide me as you promised/said that you would do and help me not to fall/sin; do not allow evil [people] to control what I do.
Dirige mes pas selon ta parole, et que nulle iniquité ne soit maîtresse de moi.
134 Rescue/Save me from those who oppress me in order that I may obey (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Délivre-moi des fausses accusations des hommes, et je garderai tes commandements.
