Psalms 64
1 God, listen to me as I tell you the things that I am worried about. I am afraid of my enemies; so save/rescue me from them.
Au chef de musique. Psaume de David. Écoute, ô Dieu! ma voix, quand je me plains; garde ma vie de la crainte de l’ennemi.
2 Protect me from what wicked men are planning to do to me; protect me from that gang of men who do what is evil.
Cache-moi loin du conseil secret des méchants, et de la foule tumultueuse des ouvriers d’iniquité,
3 The hostile things they say [MTY] are like [SIM] [sharp] swords; their cruel words are like [SIM] arrows.
Qui ont aiguisé leur langue comme une épée, ajusté leur flèche, – une parole amère,
4 Without being afraid, they [lie about people and slander people] who have not done what is wrong, like someone who suddenly jumps up from where he is hiding and shoots [arrows] at his enemy [MET].
Pour tirer de leurs cachettes contre celui qui est intègre: soudain ils tirent sur lui, et ils ne craignent pas.
5 They encourage each other about doing the evil things that they are planning to do; they talk [with each other] about where they can set traps to catch people, and they think, “No one [RHQ] will see what we are doing,
Ils s’affermissent dans de mauvaises choses, ils s’entretiennent ensemble pour cacher des pièges; ils disent: Qui le verra?
6 because we have planned very well the crime that we are going to commit!” No one can fully understand what people can think and plan!
Ils méditent des méchancetés: Nous avons fini; la machination est ourdie. L’intérieur de chacun, et le cœur, est profond.
7 But [it will be as though] God will shoot his arrows at them, and suddenly they will be wounded.
Mais Dieu tirera sa flèche contre eux: soudain ils sont blessés;
8 Because of what they say [MTY], he will get rid of them, and then everyone who sees [what has happened to] them will shake their heads [to ridicule them].
Et leur langue les fera tomber les uns par-dessus les autres; tous ceux qui les voient s’enfuiront.
9 And then everyone will be afraid [to sin because of what might happen to them, also]; they will tell others what God has done, and they themselves will think much about it.
Et tous les hommes craindront, et ils raconteront les actes de Dieu, et considéreront son œuvre.
10 Righteous people should rejoice because of what Yahweh [has done]; they should go to him to (find protection/be safe); and all those who are godly will praise him.
Le juste se réjouira en l’Éternel et se confiera en lui, et tous ceux qui sont droits de cœur se glorifieront.
