Psaumes 138

1 De David. Je veux Te louer de tout mon cœur, et te célébrer en la présence de Dieu;

A Psalm for David, of Aggaeus and Zacharias. I will give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart; and I will sing psalms to you before the angels; for you have heard all the words of my mouth.

2 me prosterner dans ton saint temple, et louer ton nom, car tu es bon et fidèle! Tu as donné à ta promesse des effets qui dépassent toute ta renommée.

I will worship towards your holy temple, and give thanks to your name, on account of your mercy and your truth; for you have magnified your holy name above every thing.

3 Quand je criai, tu m'exauças, tu m'enhardis, donnant force à mon âme.

In whatever day I shall call upon you, hear me speedily; you shall abundantly provide me with your power in my soul.

4 Éternel, tous les rois de la terre te loueront, à l'ouïe des promesses sorties de ta bouche;

Let all the kings of the earth, o Lord, give thanks to you; for they have heard all the words of your mouth.

5 et ils célébreront les voies de l'Etemel, car la gloire de l'Éternel est grande.

And let them sing in the ways of the Lord; for great is the glory of the Lord.

6 L'Éternel est élevé, Il découvre l'humble, et de loin Il reconnaît le superbe.

For the Lord is high, and [yet] regards the lowly; and he knows high things from afar off.

7 Si je chemine au milieu des angoisses, tu me redonnes la vie, tu opposes ta main à la fureur de mes ennemis, et ta droite me délivre.

Though I should walk in the midst of affliction, you will quicken me; you have stretched forth your hands against the wrath of mine enemies, and your right hand has saved me.

8 L'Éternel agira pour moi jusques au bout. Seigneur, ta miséricorde est éternelle, ne laisse pas tomber les œuvres de tes mains!

O Lord, you shall recompense [them] on my behalf: your mercy, O Lord, [endures] for ever: overlook not the works of your hands.
