Psalms 30
1 A psalm; a song at the dedication of the temple. A psalm of David. I will exalt you, Yahweh, for you have raised me up and have not allowed my enemies to rejoice over me.
Psaume. Cantique pour la dédicace de la maison. De David. Je t’exalte, Yahweh, car tu m’as relevé, tu n’as pas réjoui mes ennemis à mon sujet.
2 Yahweh my God, I cried to you for help, and you healed me.
Yahweh, mon Dieu, j’ai crié vers toi, et tu m’as guéri.
3 Yahweh, you have brought up my soul from Sheol; you have kept me alive from going down to the grave. (Sheol h7585)
Yahweh, tu as fait remonter mon âme du schéol, tu m’as rendu la vie, loin de ceux qui descendent dans la fosse. (Sheol h7585)
4 Sing praises to Yahweh, you his faithful people! Give thanks when you remember his holiness.
Chantez Yahweh, vous ses fidèles, célébrez son saint souvenir!
5 For his anger is only for a moment; but his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping comes for a night, but joy comes in the morning.
Car sa colère dure un instant, mais sa grâce toute la vie; le soir viennent les pleurs, et le matin l’allégresse.
6 In confidence I said, “I will never be shaken.”
Je disais dans ma sécurité: « Je ne serai jamais ébranlé! »
7 Yahweh, by your favor you established me as a strong mountain; but when you hid your face, I was troubled.
Yahweh, par ta grâce, tu avais affermi ma montagne; — tu as caché ta face, et j’ai été troublé.
8 I cried to you, Yahweh, and sought favor from my Lord!
Yahweh, j’ai crié vers toi, j’ai imploré Yahweh:
9 What advantage is there in my death, if I go down to the grave? Will the dust praise you? Will it declare your trustworthiness?
« Que gagnes-tu à verser mon sang; à me faire descendre dans la fosse? La poussière chantera-t-elle tes louanges, annoncera-t-elle ta vérité?
10 Hear, Yahweh, and have mercy on me! Yahweh, be my helper.
Ecoute, Yahweh, sois-moi propice; Yahweh, viens à mon secours! » —
11 You have turned my mourning into dancing; you have removed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness.
Et tu as changé mes lamentations en allégresse, tu as délié mon sac et tu m’as ceint de joie,
12 So now my glory will sing praise to you and not be silent; Yahweh my God, I will give thanks to you forever!
afin que mon âme te chante et ne se taise pas. Yahweh, mon Dieu, à jamais je te louerai.
