Psalms 27 — parallel

27:1

De David.

Of David. The LORD is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life—whom shall I dread?

27:2

Quand des méchants s’avancent contre moi,

When the wicked came upon me to devour my flesh, my enemies and foes stumbled and fell.

27:3

Si une armée se campait contre moi,

Though an army encamps around me, my heart will not fear; though a war breaks out against me, I will keep my trust.

27:4

Je demande à l’Éternel une chose, que je désire ardemment:

One thing I have asked of the LORD; this is what I desire: to dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the LORD and seek Him in His temple.

27:5

Car il me protégera dans son tabernacle au jour du malheur,

For in the day of trouble He will hide me in His shelter; He will conceal me under the cover of His tent; He will set me high upon a rock.

27:6

Et déjà ma tête s’élève sur mes ennemis qui m’entourent;

Then my head will be held high above my enemies around me. At His tabernacle I will offer sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing and make music to the LORD.

27:7

Éternel! Écoute ma voix, je t’invoque:

Hear, O LORD, my voice when I call; be merciful and answer me.

27:8

Mon cœur dit de ta part: Cherchez ma face!

My heart said, “Seek His face.” Your face, O LORD, I will seek.

27:9

Ne me cache point ta face,

Hide not Your face from me, nor turn away Your servant in anger. You have been my helper; do not leave me or forsake me, O God of my salvation.
