< Psaumes 14 >
1 Au chef de musique. De David. L’insensé a dit en son cœur: Il n’y a point de Dieu. Ils se sont corrompus, ils ont rendu abominables leurs actions; il n’y a personne qui fasse le bien.
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.
2 L’Éternel a regardé des cieux sur les fils des hommes, pour voir s’il y a quelqu’un qui soit intelligent, qui recherche Dieu:
The Lord looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any that understood, or sought after god.
3 Ils se sont tous détournés, ils se sont tous ensemble corrompus; il n’y a personne qui fasse le bien, non pas même un seul.
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.
4 Tous les ouvriers d’iniquité n’ont-ils aucune connaissance? Ils dévorent mon peuple comme on mange du pain; ils n’invoquent point l’Éternel.
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.
5 Là, ils ont été saisis de frayeur; car Dieu est au milieu de la génération juste.
There were they alarmed with fear, where there was no fear; for God is in the righteous generation.
6 Vous jetez l’opprobre sur le conseil de l’affligé, parce que l’Éternel était sa confiance.
You have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the Lord is his hope.
7 Oh! si de Sion le salut d’Israël était venu! Quand l’Éternel rétablira les captifs de son peuple, Jacob s’égaiera, Israël se réjouira.
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.
