Psalms 3

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	JERUSALEM
1 A Psalm of David. When he fled from the face of his son, Absalom.	1 Psaume de David. Quand il fuyait devant son fils Absalom.
2 Lord, why have those who trouble me been multiplied? Many rise up against me.	2 Yahvé, qu'ils sont nombreux mes oppresseurs, nombreux ceux qui se lèvent contre moi,
3 Many say to my soul, “There is no salvation for him in his God.”	3 nombreux ceux qui disent de mon âme: "Point de salut pour elle en son Dieu! "
4 But you, Lord, are my supporter, my glory, and the one who raises up my head.	4 Mais toi, Yahvé, bouclier qui m'entoures, ma gloire! tu me redresses la tête.
5 I have cried out to the Lord with my voice, and he has heard me from his holy mountain.	5 A pleine voix je crie vers Yahvé, il me répond de sa montagne sainte.
6 I have slept, and I have been stupefied. But I awakened because the Lord has taken me up.	6 Et moi, je me couche et m'endors, je m'éveille: Yahvé est mon soutien.
7 I will not fear the thousands of people surrounding me. Rise up, Lord. Save me, my God.	7 Je ne crains pas ces gens par milliers qui forment un cercle contre moi.
8 For you have struck all those who oppose me without cause. You have broken the teeth of sinners.	8 Lève-toi, Yahvé! Sauve-moi, mon Dieu! Tu frappes à la joue tous mes adversaires, les dents desimpies, tu les brises.
9 Salvation is of the Lord, and your blessing is upon your people.	9 De Yahvé, le salut! Sur ton peuple, ta bénédiction!
