Salmos 49
Septante en francais
1Psaume d'Asaph. Le Dieu des dieux, le Seigneur a parlé, et il a appelé la terre depuis l'Orient jusqu'à l'Occident
2De Sion vient la splendeur de sa beauté.
3Dieu, notre Dieu viendra manifestement, et ne gardera pas le silence ; un feu sera allume en sa présence, et tout alentour un vent impétueux soufflera.
4Il convoquera le ciel et la terre, pour juger son peuple.
5Amenez-lui ses saints, ceux qui ont fait alliance avec lui, pour les sacrifices.
6Et les cieux annonceront sa justice ; car Dieu est le juge.
7Écoute, mon peuple, et je parlerai ; Israël, je te l'atteste : je suis Dieu, je suis ton Dieu.
8Je ne te réprimanderai point sur tes sacrifices ; car tes holocaustes sont toujours devant mes yeux.
9Je ne prendrai pas de bœufs de ta maison, ni de boucs de tes menus troupeaux.
10Car toutes les bêtes de la forêt m'appartiennent, et le bétail des montagnes et les taureaux.
11Je connais tous les oiseaux du ciel, et la beauté des champs est à moi.
12Si j'ai faim, je ne te le dis pas ; car toute la terre habitée m'appartient et sa plénitude.
13Est-ce que je mange la chair des taureaux ? est-ce que je bois le sang des boucs ?
14Immole à Dieu une victime de louanges ; rends au Tout-Puissant tes vœux.
15Invoque-moi au jour de l'affliction, et je te sauverai, et tu me rendras grâces.
16Mais Dieu a dit au pécheur : Pourquoi publies-tu mes justices et as-tu mon alliance à la bouche,
17Quand tu n'aimes point ma discipline, et que tu as rejeté loin de toi ma parole ?
18Si tu voyais un larron, tu courais avec lui ; tu avais ta part avec les adultères ;
19Ta bouche abondait en méchanceté, et ta langue tramait la fraude.
20Assis, tu médisais de ton frère ; tu scandalisais le fils de ta mère.
21Voilà ce que tu faisais, et j'ai gardé le silence ; mais tu t'imaginais faussement que je serais semblable à toi. Je te convaincrai, et je mettrai tes offenses devant ta face.
22Comprenez donc ces choses, vous qui oubliez Dieu ; de peur qu'un jour il ne vous ravisse, et que nul ne vous délivre.
23C'est un sacrifice de louange qui m'honore, et la voie où je montrerai le salut de Dieu.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Al Músico principal: Salmo para los hijos de Coré. OID esto, pueblos todos; escuchad, habitadores todos del mundo:
2Así los plebeyos como los nobles, el rico y el pobre juntamente.
3Mi boca hablará sabiduría; y el pensamiento de mi corazón inteligencia.
4Acomodaré á ejemplos mi oído: declararé con el arpa mi enigma.
5¿Por qué he de temer en los días de adversidad, cuando la iniquidad de mis insidiadores me cercare?
6Los que confían en sus haciendas, y en la muchedumbre de sus riquezas se jactan,
7Ninguno de ellos podrá en manera alguna redimir al hermano, ni dar á Dios su rescate.
8(Porque la redención de su vida es de gran precio, y no se hará jamás;)
9Que viva adelante para siempre, y nunca vea la sepultura.
10Pues se ve que mueren los sabios, así como el insensato y el necio perecen, y dejan á otros sus riquezas.
11En su interior tienen que sus casas serán eternas, y sus habitaciones para generación y generación: llamaron sus tierras de sus nombres.
12Mas el hombre no permanecerá en honra: es semejante á las bestias que perecen.
13Este su camino es su locura: con todo, corren sus descendientes por el dicho de ellos. (Selah.)
14Como rebaños serán puestos en la sepultura; la muerte se cebará en ellos; y los rectos se enseñorearán de ellos por la mañana: y se consumirá su bien parecer en el sepulcro de su morada.
15Empero Dios redimirá mi vida del poder de la sepultura, cuando me tomará. (Selah.)
16No temas cuando se enriquece alguno, cuando aumenta la gloria de su casa;
17Porque en muriendo no llevará nada, ni descenderá tras él su gloria.
18Si bien mientras viviere, dirá dichosa á su alma: y tú serás loado cuando bien te tratares.
19Entrará á la generación de sus padres: no verán luz para siempre.
20El hombre en honra que no entiende, semejante es á las bestias que perecen.

King James Version
1Hear this, all ye people; give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world:
2Both low and high, rich and poor, together.
3My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.
4I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my dark saying upon the harp.
5Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?
6They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
7None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:
8(For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)
9That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption.
10For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.
11Their inward thought is, that their houses shall continue for ever, and their dwelling places to all generations; they call their lands after their own names.
12Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts that perish.
13This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.
14Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beauty shall consume in the grave from their dwelling.
15But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.
16Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased;
17For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him.
18Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself.
19He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light.
20Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.

World English Bible
1Hear this, all you peoples. Listen, all you inhabitants of the world,
2both low and high, rich and poor together.
3My mouth will speak words of wisdom. My heart will utter understanding.
4I will incline my ear to a proverb. I will solve my riddle on the harp.
5Why should I fear in the days of evil, when iniquity at my heels surrounds me?
6Those who trust in their wealth, and boast in the multitude of their riches—
7none of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give God a ransom for him.
8For the redemption of their life is costly, no payment is ever enough,
9that he should live on forever, that he should not see corruption.
10For he sees that wise men die; likewise the fool and the senseless perish, and leave their wealth to others.
11Their inward thought is that their houses will endure forever, and their dwelling places to all generations. They name their lands after themselves.
12But man, despite his riches, doesn’t endure. He is like the animals that perish.
13This is the destiny of those who are foolish, and of those who approve their sayings. Selah.
14They are appointed as a flock for Sheol. Death shall be their shepherd. The upright shall have dominion over them in the morning. Their beauty shall decay in Sheol, far from their mansion.
15But God will redeem my soul from the power of Sheol, for he will receive me. Selah.
16Don’t be afraid when a man is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased;
17for when he dies he will carry nothing away. His glory won’t descend after him.
18Though while he lived he blessed his soul— and men praise you when you do well for yourself—
19he shall go to the generation of his fathers. They shall never see the light.
20A man who has riches without understanding, is like the animals that perish.
