Psaume 6

La Bible du Semeur

Au secours !

1 Au chef de chœur. Un psaume de David, à chanter avec accompagnement de harpes à huit cordes^[1]. 2 Eternel, mon Dieu, ╵malgré ta colère, ╵ne me punis pas et, dans ton courroux, ╵ne me châtie pas! 3 Eternel, ╵aie pitié de moi, ╵car je suis sans force. O Eternel, guéris-moi, ╵car de tout mon être, ╵vois, je suis dans l’épouvante. 4 Je suis en plein désarroi. Et toi, Eternel, ╵quand donc interviendras-tu? 5 Ne voudrais-tu pas ╵revenir vers moi ╵pour me délivrer? Dans ton amour, sauve-moi! 6 Car ceux qui sont morts ╵ne sont plus capables ╵de parler de toi! Qui peut te louer ╵au séjour des morts? 7 Or, à force de gémir, ╵je suis épuisé, et, durant la nuit, ╵sur mon lit, je pleure; ma couche est trempée, ╵inondée de larmes. 8 Mes yeux sont usés, ╵tant j’ai de chagrin, ╵ils n’en peuvent plus. Ce sont tous mes ennemis ╵qui en sont la cause. 9 Retirez-vous tous, ╵artisans du mal! L’Eternel entend mes pleurs^[2]. (Mt 7:23; Lc 13:27) 10 L’Eternel exauce ╵mes supplications. L’Eternel accueille ╵ma prière. 11 Tous mes ennemis ╵seront dans la honte ╵et dans l’épouvante, ils reculeront ╵soudain, tout honteux.
