Psalm 3 | La Bible du Semeur

Le salut vient de l’Eternel

1 Psaume de David, quand il fuyait devant son fils Absalom*. 2 O Eternel, ╵mes ennemis sont si nombreux! Oui, si nombreux mes adversaires ╵qui se sont dressés contre moi. 3 Et si nombreux ceux qui prétendent qu’il n’y a plus aucun secours ╵pour moi auprès de Dieu. Pause* 4 Pourtant, ô Eternel, ╵tu es pour moi un bouclier ╵qui me protège. O toi ma gloire, ╵tu me feras marcher encore ╵la tête haute. 5 A haute voix, je crie vers l’Eternel; de sa montagne sainte, ╵mon Dieu m’exaucera. Pause 6 Quand je me couche, je m’endors; je me réveille ╵car l’Eternel est mon soutien. 7 Je ne craindrai donc pas ╵ces multitudes qui sont postées autour de moi. 8 Eternel, lève-toi! ╵Au secours, mon Dieu, sauve-moi! Tu gifles tous mes ennemis: tu casses les dents aux méchants. 9 De l’Eternel vient le salut. O Eternel, fais reposer ╵ta bénédiction sur les tiens. Pause

Save Me, O My God

1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. O Lord, how many are my foes! Many are rising against me; 2 many are saying of my soul, “There is no salvation for him in God.” * 3 But you, O Lord, are a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head. 4 I cried aloud to the Lord, and he answered me from his holy hill. 5 I lay down and slept; I woke again, for the Lord sustained me. 6 I will not be afraid of many thousands of people who have set themselves against me all around. 7 Arise, O Lord! Save me, O my God! For you strike all my enemies on the cheek; you break the teeth of the wicked. 8 Salvation belongs to the Lord; your blessing be on your people!
