Psalms 11

1 For the end, a Psalm of David. In the Lord I have put my trust: how will you say to my soul, Flee to the mountains as a sparrow?

Psaume de David, [donné] au maître chantre. Je me suis retiré vers l'Eternel; comment [donc] dites-vous à mon âme: Fuis-t'en en votre montagne, oiseau?

2 For behold the sinners have bent their [bow], they have prepared their arrows for the quiver, to shoot For privily at the upright in heart.

En effet, les méchants bandent l'arc, ils ont ajusté leur flèche sur la corde, pour tirer en secret contre ceux qui sont droits de cœur.

3 For they have pulled down what you did frame, but what has the righteous done?

Puisque les fondements sont ruinés, que fera le juste?

4 The Lord is in his holy temple, as for the Lord, his throne is in heaven: his eyes look upon the poor, his eyelids try the sons of men.

L'Eternel est au palais de sa Sainteté; l'Eternel a son Trône aux cieux; ses yeux contemplent, [et] ses paupières sondent les fils des hommes.

5 The Lord tries the righteous and the ungodly: and he that loves unrighteousness hates his own soul.

L'Eternel sonde le juste et le méchant; et son âme hait celui qui aime la violence.

6 He shall rain upon sinners snares, fire, and brimstone, and a stormy blast [shall be] the portion of their cup.

Il fera pleuvoir sur les méchants des filets, du feu, et du souffre; et un vent de tempête sera la portion de leur breuvage.

7 For the Lord [is] righteous, and loves righteousness; his face beholds uprightness.

Car l'Eternel juste aime la justice, ses yeux contemplent l'homme droit.
