Psaume 34

La Bible du Semeur



1 Un psaume de David lorsqu’il simula la folie en présence d’Abimélek qui le chassa, de sorte que David put s’en aller[1].[2] (1S 21:11; Ps 9:1) 2 Je bénirai ╵l’Eternel en tout temps et à jamais, ╵mes lèvres le loueront. 3 Mon sujet de fierté, ╵c’est l’Eternel! Que les humbles l’entendent ╵et qu’ils se réjouissent! 4 Venez proclamer avec moi ╵que l’Eternel est grand! Exaltons-le ensemble! 5 Moi, je me suis tourné ╵vers l’Eternel ╵et il m’a répondu. Oui, il m’a délivré ╵de toutes mes frayeurs. 6 Qui regarde vers lui ╵est rayonnant de joie[3], et son visage ╵n’aura pas à rougir de honte. 7 Un malheureux a appelé, ╵et l’Eternel a entendu, car il l’a délivré ╵de toutes ses détresses. 8 L’ange de l’Eternel[4] ╵campe autour de ceux qui le craignent, et les délivre. (Gn 16:7; Gn 32:1; Ex 14:19; 2R 6:14; 2R 19:35; Ps 35:5) 9 Goûtez et constatez ╵que l’Eternel est bon[5]! Oui, heureux l’homme ╵qui trouve son refuge en lui. (1P 2:3) 10 Craignez donc l’Eternel, ╵vous, membres de son peuple saint, car pour ceux qui le craignent, ╵il n’y a pas de manque! 11 Le lion[6] peut connaître ╵la disette et la faim, mais pour ceux qui se tournent ╵vers l’Eternel, ╵il ne manquera aucun bien. 12 Venez, mes fils, écoutez-moi, et je vous apprendrai ╵à craindre l’Eternel[7]. (Pr 1:8; Pr 1:10; Pr 2:1) 13 Qui désire une longue vie? Qui souhaite vivre ╵de nombreux jours ╵pour goûter au bonheur[8]? (1P 3:10) 14 Qu’il veille sur sa langue ╵pour ne faire aucun mal, qu’aucun propos menteur ╵ne passe sur ses lèvres. 15 Détourne-toi du mal, ╵et fais ce qui est bien, cherche la paix avec ténacité. 16 Les yeux de l’Eternel ╵se tournent vers les justes, son oreille est tendue ╵pour écouter leurs cris. 17 Mais l’Eternel s’oppose ╵à ceux qui font le mal, pour ôter de la terre ╵jusqu’à leur souvenir. 18 Lorsque les hommes justes ╵lancent leurs cris vers lui, ╵l’Eternel les entend; aussi, il les délivre ╵de toutes leurs détresses. 19 Car l’Eternel est proche ╵de ceux qui ont le cœur brisé. Il sauve ceux ╵qui ont un esprit abattu. 20 De nombreux malheurs atteignent le juste mais l’Eternel le délivre de tous. 21 Il veille sur ses os: aucun d’eux n’est brisé[9]. (Jn 19:36) 22 Le malheur fera mourir le méchant, les ennemis du juste ╵porteront leur condamnation, 23 mais l’Eternel ╵sauve la vie ╵de tous ses serviteurs, et ceux dont il est le refuge ╵ne seront jamais condamnés.

Psaume 34

English Standard Version



1 [1] Of David, when he changed his behavior before Abimelech, so that he drove him out, and he went away. I will bless the Lord at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth. (1S 21:10; 1S 21:12; 1S 21:13; 1S 21:14; Ep 5:20; 1Th 5:18) 2 My soul makes its boast in the Lord; let the humble hear and be glad. (1S 2:1; Ps 44:8; Ps 119:74; Jr 9:24) 3 Oh, magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together! (Ps 35:27; Ps 40:16; Ps 69:30; Ps 70:4; Lc 1:46) 4 I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears. (2Ch 15:2; Mt 7:7) 5 Those who look to him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed. (Ps 4:6; Is 60:5) 6 This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles. (2S 22:1; Ps 34:15; Ps 34:17; Ps 34:19) 7 The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them. (Gn 32:1; 2R 6:17; Da 6:22; He 1:14) 8 Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him! (Ps 2:12; Ps 100:5; He 6:5; 1P 2:3) 9 Oh, fear the Lord, you his saints, for those who fear him have no lack! 10 The young lions suffer want and hunger; but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. (Jb 4:10; Ps 84:11) 11 Come, O children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the Lord. (Ps 32:8; Ps 66:16) 12 What man is there who desires life and loves many days, that he may see good? (Ec 3:13; Ec 6:6; 1P 3:10) 13 Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceit. (Ps 15:3; Ps 39:1; Ps 141:3; Pr 13:3; Pr 21:23; Jn 1:47; Jc 1:26; Jc 3:2; 1P 2:1; 1P 2:22; Ap 14:5) 14 Turn away from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. (Jb 28:28; Ps 37:27; Is 1:16; Rm 12:18; Rm 14:19; He 12:14) 15 The eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous and his ears toward their cry. (Ps 33:18; Ps 34:6; Ps 34:8; Ps 145:18; Jn 9:31) 16 The face of the Lord is against those who do evil, to cut off the memory of them from the earth. (Ps 21:10; Jr 44:11; Am 9:4) 17 When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. (Ps 34:15) 18 The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. (Ps 51:17; Ps 147:3; Is 57:15; Is 61:1; Is 66:2; Lc 15:17) 19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all. (Ps 34:6; Ps 34:17; Ps 34:22; Ac 12:11; 2Tm 3:11) 20 He keeps all his bones; not one of them is broken. (Jn 19:36) 21 Affliction will slay the wicked, and those who hate the righteous will be condemned. (Ps 7:15; Ps 94:23; Pr 24:16) 22 The Lord redeems the life of his servants; none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned. (Ps 25:22; Rm 8:33)
