Psalms 30
1 Yahweh, I praise you because you rescued me. You did not allow [me to die], [with the result that] my enemies could gloat/rejoice.
À la dédicace de la maison David. Je vous exalterai, Seigneur, parce que vous m’avez relevé, et que vous n’avez pas réjoui mes ennemis à mon sujet.
2 Yahweh, my God, I called out for you to help [me when I was ill], and you healed me.
Seigneur mon Dieu, j’ai crié vers vous, et vous m’avez guéri.
3 You saved/restored me when I was dying [MTY]. I was nearly dead, but you caused me to get well again. (Sheol h7585)
Seigneur, vous avez retiré de l’enfer mon âme, et vous m’avez sauvé, en me séparant de ceux qui descendent dans la fosse. (Sheol h7585)
4 All you who belong to Yahweh, sing praise to him! Think about what [God], the holy one, has done, and thank him!
Chantez des hymnes au Seigneur, vous, ses saints; glorifiez la mémoire de sa sainteté.
5 When he becomes angry, he is angry for only a very short time [HYP], but he is good [to us] all of our life. We may cry during the night, but the next morning we will be joyful.
Parce que le châtiment est dans son indignation, et la vie dans sa bonne volonté. Au soir sera réservé le pleur, et au matin la joie.
6 As for me, when I had no troubles, I said [to myself], “No one will defeat me!”
Pour moi j’ai dit dans mon abondance: Je ne décherrai jamais.
7 Yahweh, because you were good to me, at first you caused me to be safe [as though I was inside] [MET] a mountain. But then [I became ill, and I thought that] you had turned away from me, and I became afraid.
Seigneur, par votre bonne volonté, vous avez affermi mon état florissant. Vous avez détourné votre face de moi, et je suis tombé dans le trouble.
8 [Then] I called out to you, and I pleaded for you [to help me].
Vers vous, Seigneur, je crierai, et à mon Dieu j’adresserai ma supplication.
9 [I said], “Yahweh, (what will you gain if I die?/ you won’t gain anything if I die) [MTY]. (In what way will it benefit you?/it won’t benefit you at all) if I go to the place where the dead people are [RHQ]. Dead people are certainly not able to praise you [RHQ], and they are not able to tell others that you are trustworthy [RHQ]!
De quelle utilité vous sera mon sang, lorsque je descendrai dans la corruption? Est-ce que la poussière vous glorifiera; ou bien annoncera-telle votre vérité?
10 Yahweh, listen to me, and be merciful to me! Yahweh, help me!”
Le Seigneur a entendu, il a eu pitié de moi: le Seigneur est devenu mon aide.
11 But [now you have healed me], and you have caused me to change from being sad to dancing [joyfully]. You have taken away the clothes that showed that I was very sad and you have given me clothes that showed that I was [very] joyful.
Vous avez converti mes lamentations en joie: vous avez déchiré mon sac, et vous m’avez environné d’allégresse.
12 So I will not be silent; I will sing out [loudly] to praise you. Yahweh, you are my God, and I will thank you forever.
Afin que ma gloire vous chante, et que je ne sois plus tourmenté: Seigneur, mon Dieu, je vous rendrai gloire à jamais.
