Salmos 55
Bible Bovet-Bonnet (1900)
1Au maître chantre. Avec instruments à cordes. Méditation de David.O Dieu ! prête l'oreille à ma prière, Et ne te dérobe point à ma supplication !
2Ecoute-moi et réponds-moi ! Mon esprit m'emporte çà et là dans mon chagrin, et je m'agite,
3A la voix de l'ennemi et devant l'oppression du méchant. Car ils m'accablent de maux et me poursuivent avec colère.
4Mon cœur est tout tremblant au-dedans de moi, Et les terreurs de la mort sont tombées sur moi ;
5La crainte et l'épouvante m'assaillent, Et le frisson me saisit tout entier.
6Aussi ai-je dit : Oh ! qui me donnera l'aile de la colombe ? Je m'envolerais et me poserais en lieu sûr.
7Voilà ! Je m'enfuirais au loin, Je chercherais asile au désert. (Jeu d'instruments.)
8A la hâte je m'échapperais, Plus rapide que le vent impétueux, que la tempête.
9Engloutis-les, Seigneur, confonds leurs langues, Car je ne vois que violence et querelles dans la ville.
10Jour et nuit ils font la ronde sur ses murailles ; L'iniquité et le tourment sont dans son enceinte,
11La perversité, est au milieu d'elle, L'oppression et la fraude ne quittent point ses places.
12Car ce n'est pas un ennemi qui m'outrage : Je le supporterais ; Ce n'est pas celui qui me haïssait qui s'élève contre moi : Je pourrais me cacher loin de lui ;
13Mais c'est toi, un homme de mon rang, Mon compagnon et mon ami !
14Nous, qui rendions si doux nos entretiens intimes, Qui allions avec la foule à la maison de Dieu !
15Que la mort les surprenne, Qu'ils descendent vivants dans le sépulcre, Car la méchanceté est dans leurs demeures, Elle habite au milieu d'eux.
16Pour moi, je crie à Dieu, Et l'Eternel me sauvera.
17Le soir, le matin et à midi, je soupire et je gémis ; Il entendra ma voix.
18Il me tire sain et sauf du combat qu'on me livre, Car j'ai affaire à beaucoup de gens.
19Dieu entendra et leur répondra, Lui qui trône de toute éternité. (Jeu d'instruments.) Car il n'y a point en eux de changement, Et ils ne craignent point Dieu.
20Il jette la main sur ceux qui vivaient en paix avec lui, Il viole son alliance !
21Sa bouche est plus douce que la crème, Mais la guerre est dans son cœur ; Ses paroles sont plus onctueuses que l'huile, Mais ce sont des épées nues.
22Remets ton sort à l'Eternel, et il te soutiendra ; Il ne permettra pas à toujours que le juste soit ébranlé.
23Et toi, ô Dieu, tu les précipiteras au fond de la fosse, Ces hommes de sang et de fraude ! Ils n'atteindront pas la moitié de leurs jours. Mais moi, je me confierai en toi.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Al Músico principal: en Neginoth: Masquil de David. ESCUCHA, oh Dios, mi oración, y no te escondas de mi súplica.
2Estáme atento, y respóndeme: clamo en mi oración, y levanto el grito,
3A causa de la voz del enemigo, por la opresión del impío; porque echaron sobre mí iniquidad, y con furor me han amenazado.
4Mi corazón está doloroso dentro de mí, y terrores de muerte sobre mí han caído.
5Temor y temblor vinieron sobre mí, y terror me ha cubierto.
6Y dije: ¡Quién me diese alas como de paloma! volaría yo, y descansaría.
7Ciertamente huiría lejos: moraría en el desierto. (Selah.)
8Apresuraríame á escapar del viento tempestuoso, de la tempestad.
9Deshace, oh Señor, divide la lengua de ellos; porque he visto violencia y rencilla en la ciudad.
10Día y noche la rodean sobre sus muros; é iniquidad y trabajo hay en medio de ella.
11Agravios hay en medio de ella, y el fraude y engaño no se apartan de sus plazas.
12Porque no me afrentó un enemigo, lo cual habría soportado; ni se alzó contra mí el que me aborrecía, porque me hubiera ocultado de él:
13Mas tú, hombre, al parecer íntimo mío, mi guía, y mi familiar:
14Que juntos comunicábamos dulcemente los secretos, á la casa de Dios andábamos en compañía.
15Condenados sean á muerte, desciendan vivos al infierno: porque maldades hay en su compañía, entre ellos.
16Yo á Dios clamaré; y Jehová me salvará.
17Tarde y mañana y á medio día oraré y clamaré; y él oirá mi voz.
18El ha redimido en paz mi alma de la guerra contra mí; pues fueron contra mí muchos.
19Dios oirá, y los quebrantará luego, el que desde la antigüedad permanece (Selah); por cuanto no se mudan, ni temen á Dios.
20Extendió sus manos contra sus pacíficos: violó su pacto.
21Ablandan más que manteca su boca, pero guerra hay en su corazón: suavizan sus palabras más que el aceite, mas ellas son cuchillos.
22Echa sobre Jehová tu carga, y él te sustentará; no dejará para siempre caído al justo.
23Mas tú, oh Dios, harás descender aquéllos al pozo de la sepultura: los hombres sanguinarios y engañadores no demediarán sus días: empero yo confiaré en ti.
King James Version
1Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication.
2Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise;
3Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.
4My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.
5Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
6And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.
7Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. Selah.
8I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest.
9Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
10Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it.
11Wickedness is in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart not from her streets.
12For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have borne it: neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; then I would have hid myself from him:
13But it was thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance.
14We took sweet counsel together, and walked unto the house of God in company.
15Let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them.
16As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.
17Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.
18He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me: for there were many with me.
19God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.
20He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he hath broken his covenant.
21The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.
22Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
23But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee.
World English Bible
1Listen to my prayer, God. Don’t hide yourself from my supplication.
2Attend to me, and answer me. I am restless in my complaint, and moan
3because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked. For they bring suffering on me. In anger they hold a grudge against me.
4My heart is severely pained within me. The terrors of death have fallen on me.
5Fearfulness and trembling have come on me. Horror has overwhelmed me.
6I said, “Oh that I had wings like a dove! Then I would fly away, and be at rest.
7Behold, then I would wander far off. I would lodge in the wilderness.” Selah.
8“I would hurry to a shelter from the stormy wind and storm.”
9Confuse them, Lord, and confound their language, for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
10Day and night they prowl around on its walls. Malice and abuse are also within her.
11Destructive forces are within her. Threats and lies don’t depart from her streets.
12For it was not an enemy who insulted me, then I could have endured it. Neither was it he who hated me who raised himself up against me, then I would have hidden myself from him.
13But it was you, a man like me, my companion, and my familiar friend.
14We took sweet fellowship together. We walked in God’s house with company.
15Let death come suddenly on them. Let them go down alive into Sheol. For wickedness is among them, in their dwelling.
16As for me, I will call on God. The LORD will save me.
17Evening, morning, and at noon, I will cry out in distress. He will hear my voice.
18He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me, although there are many who oppose me.
19God, who is enthroned forever, will hear and answer them. Selah. They never change and don’t fear God.
20He raises his hands against his friends. He has violated his covenant.
21His mouth was smooth as butter, but his heart was war. His words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords.
22Cast your burden on the LORD and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved.
23But you, God, will bring them down into the pit of destruction. Bloodthirsty and deceitful men shall not live out half their days, but I will trust in you.
