Psalms 64
1 God, listen to me as I tell you the things that I am worried about. I am afraid of my enemies; so save/rescue me from them.
Au maître de Chant. Psaume de David. O Dieu, écoute ma voix, quand je fais entendre mes plaintes; défends ma vie contre un ennemi qui m'épouvante;
2 Protect me from what wicked men are planning to do to me; protect me from that gang of men who do what is evil.
protège-moi contre les complots des malfaiteurs, contre la troupe soulevée des hommes iniques,
3 The hostile things they say [MTY] are like [SIM] [sharp] swords; their cruel words are like [SIM] arrows.
qui aiguisent leurs langues comme un glaive, qui préparent leurs flèches — leur parole amère! —
4 Without being afraid, they [lie about people and slander people] who have not done what is wrong, like someone who suddenly jumps up from where he is hiding and shoots [arrows] at his enemy [MET].
pour les décocher dans l'ombre contre l'innocent; ils les décochent contre lui à l'improviste, sans rien craindre.
5 They encourage each other about doing the evil things that they are planning to do; they talk [with each other] about where they can set traps to catch people, and they think, “No one [RHQ] will see what we are doing,
Ils s'affermissent dans leurs desseins pervers, ils se concertent pour tendre leurs pièges; ils disent: " Qui les verra? "
6 because we have planned very well the crime that we are going to commit!” No one can fully understand what people can think and plan!
Ils ne méditent que forfaits: " Nous sommes prêts, disent-ils, notre plan est bien dressé. " L'intérieur de l'homme et son cœur sont un abîme!
7 But [it will be as though] God will shoot his arrows at them, and suddenly they will be wounded.
Mais Dieu a lancé sur eux ses traits: soudain les voilà blessés!
8 Because of what they say [MTY], he will get rid of them, and then everyone who sees [what has happened to] them will shake their heads [to ridicule them].
On les jette par terre; les traits de leur langue retombent sur eux! Tous ceux qui les voient branlent la tête!
9 And then everyone will be afraid [to sin because of what might happen to them, also]; they will tell others what God has done, and they themselves will think much about it.
Tous les hommes sont saisis de crainte, ils publient l'œuvre de Dieu, ils comprennent ce qu'il a fait.
10 Righteous people should rejoice because of what Yahweh [has done]; they should go to him to (find protection/be safe); and all those who are godly will praise him.
Le juste se réjouit en Yahweh et se confie en lui, tous ceux qui ont le cœur droit se glorifient.
