For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm by Asaph.
1. My cry goes to God! Indeed, I cry to God for help, and for him to listen to me.
2. In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord. My hand was stretched out in the night, and didn’t get tired. My soul refused to be comforted.
3. I remember God, and I groan. I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. Selah.
4. You hold my eyelids open. I am so troubled that I can’t speak.
5. I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
6. I remember my song in the night. I consider in my own heart; my spirit diligently inquires:
7. “Will the Lord reject us forever? Will he be favorable no more?
8. Has his loving kindness vanished forever? Does his promise fail for generations?
9. Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he, in anger, withheld his compassion?” Selah.
10. Then I thought, “I will appeal to this: the years of the right hand of the Most High.”
11. I will remember the LORD’s deeds; for I will remember your wonders of old.
12. I will also meditate on all your work, and consider your doings.
13. Your way, God, is in the sanctuary. What god is great like God?
14. You are the God who does wonders. You have made your strength known among the peoples.
15. You have redeemed your people with your arm, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
16. The waters saw you, God. The waters saw you, and they writhed. The depths also convulsed.
17. The clouds poured out water. The skies resounded with thunder. Your arrows also flashed around.
18. The voice of your thunder was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lit up the world. The earth trembled and shook.
19. Your way was through the sea, your paths through the great waters. Your footsteps were not known.
20. You led your people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

1. Au maître de chant,... Idithun. Psaume d’Asaph.
2. Ma voix s’élève vers Dieu, et je crie ; ma voix s’élève vers Dieu : qu’il m’entende !
3. Au jour de ma détresse, je cherche le Seigneur ; mes mains sont étendues la nuit sans se lasser ; mon âme refuse toute consolation.
4. Je me souviens de Dieu, et je gémis ; je médite, et mon esprit est abattu. - Séla.
5. Tu tiens mes paupières ouvertes ; et, dans mon agitation, je ne puis parler.
6. Alors je pense aux jours anciens, aux années d’autrefois.
7. Je me rappelle mes cantiques pendant la nuit, je réfléchis au dedans de mon cœur, et mon esprit se demande :
8. « Le Seigneur rejettera-t-il pour toujours, ne sera-t-il plus favorable ?
9. Sa bonté est-elle épuisée pour jamais, en est-ce fait de ses promesses pour les âges futurs ?
10. Dieu a-t-il oublié sa clémence, a-t-il, dans sa colère, retiré sa miséricorde ? » - Séla.
11. Je dis : « Ce qui fait ma souffrance, c’est que la droite du Très-Haut a changé ! »
12. Je veux rappeler les œuvres de Yahweh, car je me souviens de tes merveilles d’autrefois,
13. Je veux réfléchir sur toutes tes œuvres, et méditer sur tes hauts faits.
14. O Dieu, tes voies sont saintes : quel Dieu est grand comme notre Dieu ?
15. Tu es le Dieu qui fait des prodiges ; tu as manifesté ta puissance parmi les nations.
16. Par ton bras, tu as délivré ton peuple, les fils de Jacob et de Joseph. - Séla.
17. Les eaux t’ont vu, ô Dieu, les eaux t’ont vu, et elles ont tremblé ; les abîmes se sont émus.
18. Les nuées déversèrent leurs eaux, les nues firent entendre leur voix, et tes flèches volèrent de toutes parts.
19. Ton tonnerre retentit dans le tourbillon ; les éclairs illuminèrent le monde ; la terre frémit et trembla.
20. La mer fut ton chemin, les grandes eaux ton sentier, et l’on ne put reconnaître tes traces.
21. Tu as conduit ton peuple comme un troupeau, par la main de Moïse et d’Aaron.

1. Intellectus Asaph. [Attendite, popule meus, legem meam; inclinate aurem vestram in verba oris mei.
2. Aperiam in parabolis os meum; loquar propositiones ab initio.
3. Quanta audivimus, et cognovimus ea, et patres nostri narraverunt nobis.
4. Non sunt occultata a filiis eorum in generatione altera, narrantes laudes Domini et virtutes ejus, et mirabilia ejus quæ fecit.
5. Et suscitavit testimonium in Jacob, et legem posuit in Israël, quanta mandavit patribus nostris nota facere ea filiis suis:
6. ut cognoscat generatio altera: filii qui nascentur et exsurgent, et narrabunt filiis suis,
7. ut ponant in Deo spem suam, et non obliviscantur operum Dei, et mandata ejus exquirant:
8. ne fiant, sicut patres eorum, generatio prava et exasperans; generatio quæ non direxit cor suum, et non est creditus cum Deo spiritus ejus.
9. Filii Ephrem, intendentes et mittentes arcum, conversi sunt in die belli.
10. Non custodierunt testamentum Dei, et in lege ejus noluerunt ambulare.
11. Et obliti sunt benefactorum ejus, et mirabilium ejus quæ ostendit eis.
12. Coram patribus eorum fecit mirabilia in terra Ægypti, in campo Taneos.
13. Interrupit mare, et perduxit eos, et statuit aquas quasi in utre:
14. et deduxit eos in nube diei, et tota nocte in illuminatione ignis.
15. Interrupit petram in eremo, et adaquavit eos velut in abysso multa.
16. Et eduxit aquam de petra, et deduxit tamquam flumina aquas.
17. Et apposuerunt adhuc peccare ei; in iram excitaverunt Excelsum in inaquoso.
18. Et tentaverunt Deum in cordibus suis, ut peterent escas animabus suis.
19. Et male locuti sunt de Deo; dixerunt: Numquid poterit Deus parare mensam in deserto?
20. quoniam percussit petram, et fluxerunt aquæ, et torrentes inundaverunt. Numquid et panem poterit dare, aut parare mensam populo suo?
21. Ideo audivit Dominus et distulit; et ignis accensus est in Jacob, et ira ascendit in Israël:
22. quia non crediderunt in Deo, nec speraverunt in salutari ejus.
23. Et mandavit nubibus desuper, et januas cæli aperuit.
24. Et pluit illis manna ad manducandum, et panem cæli dedit eis.
25. Panem angelorum manducavit homo; cibaria misit eis in abundantia.
26. Transtulit austrum de cælo, et induxit in virtute sua africum.
27. Et pluit super eos sicut pulverem carnes, et sicut arenam maris volatilia pennata.
28. Et ceciderunt in medio castrorum eorum, circa tabernacula eorum.
29. Et manducaverunt, et saturati sunt nimis, et desiderium eorum attulit eis:
30. non sunt fraudati a desiderio suo. Adhuc escæ eorum erant in ore ipsorum,
31. et ira Dei ascendit super eos: et occidit pingues eorum, et electos Israël impedivit.
32. In omnibus his peccaverunt adhuc, et non crediderunt in mirabilibus ejus.
33. Et defecerunt in vanitate dies eorum, et anni eorum cum festinatione.
34. Cum occideret eos, quærebant eum et revertebantur, et diluculo veniebant ad eum.
35. Et rememorati sunt quia Deus adjutor est eorum, et Deus excelsus redemptor eorum est.
36. Et dilexerunt eum in ore suo, et lingua sua mentiti sunt ei;
37. cor autem eorum non erat rectum cum eo, nec fideles habiti sunt in testamento ejus.
38. Ipse autem est misericors, et propitius fiet peccatis eorum, et non disperdet eos. Et abundavit ut averteret iram suam, et non accendit omnem iram suam.
39. Et recordatus est quia caro sunt, spiritus vadens et non rediens.
40. Quoties exacerbaverunt eum in deserto; in iram concitaverunt eum in inaquoso?
41. Et conversi sunt, et tentaverunt Deum, et sanctum Israël exacerbaverunt.
42. Non sunt recordati manus ejus, die qua redemit eos de manu tribulantis:
43. sicut posuit in Ægypto signa sua, et prodigia sua in campo Taneos;
44. et convertit in sanguinem flumina eorum, et imbres eorum, ne biberent.
45. Misit in eos cœnomyiam, et comedit eos, et ranam, et disperdidit eos;
46. et dedit ærugini fructus eorum, et labores eorum locustæ;
47. et occidit in grandine vineas eorum, et moros eorum in pruina;
48. et tradidit grandini jumenta eorum, et possessionem eorum igni;
49. misit in eos iram indignationis suæ, indignationem, et iram, et tribulationem, immissiones per angelos malos.
50. Viam fecit semitæ iræ suæ: non pepercit a morte animabus eorum, et jumenta eorum in morte conclusit:
51. et percussit omne primogenitum in terra Ægypti; primitias omnis laboris eorum in tabernaculis Cham:
52. et abstulit sicut oves populum suum, et perduxit eos tamquam gregem in deserto:
53. et deduxit eos in spe, et non timuerunt, et inimicos eorum operuit mare.
54. Et induxit eos in montem sanctificationis suæ, montem quem acquisivit dextera ejus; et ejecit a facie eorum gentes, et sorte divisit eis terram in funiculo distributionis;
55. et habitare fecit in tabernaculis eorum tribus Israël.
56. Et tentaverunt, et exacerbaverunt Deum excelsum, et testimonia ejus non custodierunt.
57. Et averterunt se, et non servaverunt pactum: quemadmodum patres eorum, conversi sunt in arcum pravum.
58. In iram concitaverunt eum in collibus suis, et in sculptilibus suis ad æmulationem eum provocaverunt.
59. Audivit Deus, et sprevit, et ad nihilum redegit valde Israël.
60. Et repulit tabernaculum Silo, tabernaculum suum, ubi habitavit in hominibus.
61. Et tradidit in captivitatem virtutem eorum, et pulchritudinem eorum in manus inimici.
62. Et conclusit in gladio populum suum, et hæreditatem suam sprevit.
63. Juvenes eorum comedit ignis, et virgines eorum non sunt lamentatæ.
64. Sacerdotes eorum in gladio ceciderunt, et viduæ eorum non plorabantur.
65. Et excitatus est tamquam dormiens Dominus, tamquam potens crapulatus a vino.
66. Et percussit inimicos suos in posteriora; opprobrium sempiternum dedit illis.
67. Et repulit tabernaculum Joseph, et tribum Ephraim non elegit:
68. sed elegit tribum Juda, montem Sion, quem dilexit.
69. Et ædificavit sicut unicornium sanctificium suum, in terra quam fundavit in sæcula.
70. Et elegit David, servum suum, et sustulit eum de gregibus ovium; de post fœtantes accepit eum:
71. pascere Jacob servum suum, et Israël hæreditatem suam.
72. Et pavit eos in innocentia cordis sui, et in intellectibus manuum suarum deduxit eos.]

1. An understanding of Asaph. [Attend, my people, to my law; incline your ear to the words of my mouth.
2. I shall open my mouth in parables; I shall speak propositions from the beginning.
3. The things we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us,
4. were not hidden from their children in another generation, as they recounted the praises of the Lord, his powers, and the wonders he wrought.
5. And he raised up a testimony in Jacob and established a law in Israel, the things he commanded our fathers to make known to their children,
6. so that another generation might know them, the children who shall be born and arise, and shall tell them to their children,
7. that they may place their hope in God, not forget the works of God, and seek his commandments,
8. lest they become like their fathers, a perverse and provoking generation, a generation that did not direct its heart and whose spirit was not faithful with God.
9. The sons of Ephraim, bending and shooting the bow, turned back on the day of battle.
10. They did not keep the covenant of God and refused to walk in his law.
11. And they forgot his benefits and the wonders he showed them.
12. Before their fathers he wrought wonders in the land of Egypt, in the field of Tanis.
13. He divided the sea and led them through, and he made the waters stand as though in a wineskin.
14. And he led them by a cloud during the day and throughout the night by the light of fire.
15. He split the rock in the desert and gave them water as from a great abyss.
16. And he brought water out of the rock and made waters flow down like rivers.
17. Yet they continued to sin against him; in the waterless land they provoked the Most High to anger.
18. And they tempted God in their hearts by asking food for their souls.
19. And they spoke wickedly of God; they said: Can God prepare a table in the desert?
20. For he struck the rock, and waters flowed and torrents flooded forth. Can he also give bread or prepare a table for his people?
21. Therefore the Lord heard and delayed; and a fire was kindled in Jacob, and wrath rose against Israel,
22. because they did not believe in God or hope in his salvation.
23. And he commanded the clouds above and opened the doors of heaven.
24. And he rained manna upon them to eat, and gave them the bread of heaven.
25. Man ate the bread of angels; he sent them food in abundance.
26. He removed the south wind from heaven, and by his power brought in the southwest wind.
27. And he rained flesh upon them like dust, and winged birds like the sand of the sea.
28. And they fell in the midst of their camp, around their tents.
29. And they ate and were exceedingly filled, and he brought them their desire.
30. They were not deprived of their desire. Their food was still in their mouths,
31. when the wrath of God rose against them. He killed their fat ones and hindered the chosen of Israel.
32. Amid all these things they still sinned and did not believe in his wonders.
33. And their days failed in vanity, and their years in haste.
34. When he killed them, they sought him; they returned and came to him early in the morning.
35. And they remembered that God was their helper, and that God Most High was their redeemer.
36. And they loved him with their mouth, but with their tongue they lied to him.
37. Their heart was not right with him, nor were they found faithful in his covenant.
38. But he is merciful and shall be propitious to their sins, and shall not destroy them. And he abundantly turned away his anger and did not kindle all his wrath.
39. And he remembered that they are flesh, a spirit that goes away and does not return.
40. How often did they provoke him in the desert and stir him to anger in the waterless land?
41. And they turned back and tempted God, and provoked the Holy One of Israel.
42. They did not remember his hand on the day when he redeemed them from the hand of the afflicter,
43. when he set his signs in Egypt and his wonders in the field of Tanis.
44. And he turned their rivers into blood, and their rainfalls, so that they could not drink.
45. He sent among them the dog fly, which devoured them, and the frog, which destroyed them.
46. And he gave their fruits to blight, and their labors to the locust.
47. And he killed their vines with hail, and their mulberry trees with frost.
48. And he delivered their cattle to hail, and their possessions to fire.
49. He sent upon them the wrath of his indignation, indignation and wrath and tribulation, sent through evil angels.
50. He made a path for the course of his anger; he did not spare their souls from death, and he shut up their cattle in death.
51. And he struck every firstborn in the land of Egypt, the first fruits of all their labor in the tents of Ham.
52. And he took away his people like sheep, and led them like a flock in the desert.
53. And he led them forth in hope, and they did not fear, and the sea covered their enemies.
54. And he brought them into the mountain of his sanctuary, the mountain his right hand acquired. He cast out the nations before them and divided the land for them by lot with a measuring line.
55. And he made the tribes of Israel dwell in their tents.
56. Yet they tempted and provoked God Most High, and did not keep his testimonies.
57. And they turned away and did not keep the covenant. Like their fathers, they were turned into a crooked bow.
58. They stirred him to anger on their hills and provoked him to jealousy with their carved images.
59. God heard and despised them, and greatly reduced Israel to nothing.
60. And he rejected the tabernacle of Shiloh, his tabernacle where he dwelt among men.
61. And he delivered their strength into captivity, and their beauty into the hands of the enemy.
62. And he shut up his people beneath the sword, and despised his inheritance.
63. Fire consumed their young men, and their virgins were not lamented.
64. Their priests fell by the sword, and their widows were not mourned.
65. And the Lord was roused like one sleeping, like a mighty man overcome by wine.
66. And he struck his enemies upon their backs; he gave them everlasting reproach.
67. And he rejected the tabernacle of Joseph and did not choose the tribe of Ephraim.
68. But he chose the tribe of Judah, Mount Zion, which he loved.
69. And he built his sanctuary like that of unicorns, in the land he founded forever.
70. And he chose David his servant and took him from the flocks of sheep; from following the ewes with young he received him,
71. to shepherd Jacob his servant and Israel his inheritance.
72. And he shepherded them in the innocence of his heart, and guided them with the understanding of his hands.]

1. Intelligence d’Asaph. [Sois attentif, mon peuple, à ma loi; inclinez votre oreille vers les paroles de ma bouche.
2. J’ouvrirai ma bouche en paraboles; je dirai des énigmes depuis le commencement.
3. Tout ce que nous avons entendu et connu, et que nos pères nous ont raconté,
4. n’a pas été caché à leurs fils dans la génération suivante: ils racontaient les louanges du Seigneur, sa puissance et les merveilles qu’il a faites.
5. Il a suscité un témoignage en Jacob et établi une loi en Israël, toutes choses qu’il a commandé à nos pères de faire connaître à leurs fils,
6. afin que la génération suivante les connaisse, les fils qui naîtront et se lèveront, et qui les raconteront à leurs fils,
7. afin qu’ils placent leur espérance en Dieu, n’oublient pas les œuvres de Dieu et recherchent ses commandements,
8. afin qu’ils ne deviennent pas, comme leurs pères, une génération perverse et exaspérante, une génération qui n’a pas rendu son cœur droit et dont l’esprit n’a pas été fidèle à Dieu.
9. Les fils d’Éphraïm, qui bandaient et lançaient l’arc, ont tourné le dos au jour du combat.
10. Ils n’ont pas gardé l’alliance de Dieu, et ils n’ont pas voulu marcher dans sa loi.
11. Ils ont oublié ses bienfaits et les merveilles qu’il leur avait montrées.
12. Devant leurs pères, il fit des merveilles dans la terre d’Égypte, dans la plaine de Tanis.
13. Il fendit la mer et les fit passer, et il dressa les eaux comme dans une outre.
14. Il les conduisit le jour dans une nuée, et toute la nuit dans la lumière du feu.
15. Il fendit le rocher dans le désert et les abreuva comme d’un vaste abîme.
16. Il fit sortir l’eau du rocher et fit couler les eaux comme des fleuves.
17. Ils continuèrent encore à pécher contre lui; ils excitèrent la colère du Très-Haut dans la terre sans eau.
18. Ils tentèrent Dieu dans leurs cœurs en demandant des aliments pour leurs âmes.
19. Ils parlèrent mal de Dieu; ils dirent: Dieu pourra-t-il préparer une table dans le désert?
20. Car il a frappé le rocher, et les eaux ont coulé, et les torrents ont débordé. Pourra-t-il aussi donner du pain ou préparer une table à son peuple?
21. C’est pourquoi le Seigneur entendit et différa; un feu s’alluma en Jacob, et la colère monta contre Israël,
22. parce qu’ils ne crurent pas en Dieu et n’espérèrent pas en son salut.
23. Il commanda aux nuées d’en haut et ouvrit les portes du ciel.
24. Il fit pleuvoir sur eux la manne pour qu’ils la mangent, et leur donna le pain du ciel.
25. L’homme mangea le pain des anges; il leur envoya des aliments en abondance.
26. Il fit passer le vent du sud depuis le ciel et, par sa puissance, amena le vent d’Afrique.
27. Il fit pleuvoir sur eux des chairs comme la poussière, et des oiseaux ailés comme le sable de la mer.
28. Ils tombèrent au milieu de leur camp, autour de leurs tentes.
29. Ils mangèrent et furent pleinement rassasiés, et il leur apporta ce qu’ils désiraient.
30. Ils ne furent pas frustrés de leur désir. Leurs aliments étaient encore dans leur bouche
31. lorsque la colère de Dieu monta contre eux; il tua leurs hommes gras et entrava les élus d’Israël.
32. Malgré tout cela, ils péchèrent encore et ne crurent pas à ses merveilles.
33. Leurs jours s’épuisèrent dans la vanité, et leurs années dans la précipitation.
34. Lorsqu’il les tuait, ils le cherchaient; ils revenaient et venaient à lui dès l’aurore.
35. Ils se souvenaient que Dieu était leur secours, et que le Dieu très-haut était leur rédempteur.
36. Ils l’aimèrent de leur bouche, et de leur langue ils lui mentirent.
37. Mais leur cœur n’était pas droit avec lui, et ils ne furent pas trouvés fidèles à son alliance.
38. Mais lui est miséricordieux; il pardonnera leurs péchés et ne les détruira pas. Souvent il détourna sa colère et n’alluma pas toute sa fureur.
39. Il se souvint qu’ils sont chair, un souffle qui passe et ne revient pas.
40. Combien de fois l’exaspérèrent-ils dans le désert et provoquèrent-ils sa colère dans la terre sans eau?
41. Ils revinrent en arrière, tentèrent Dieu et exaspérèrent le Saint d’Israël.
42. Ils ne se souvinrent pas de sa main, du jour où il les racheta de la main de celui qui les affligeait,
43. lorsqu’il plaça ses signes en Égypte et ses prodiges dans la plaine de Tanis.
44. Il changea en sang leurs fleuves et leurs pluies, afin qu’ils ne puissent boire.
45. Il envoya contre eux la mouche venimeuse, qui les dévora, et la grenouille, qui les détruisit.
46. Il livra leurs fruits à la rouille, et leurs travaux à la sauterelle.
47. Il tua par la grêle leurs vignes, et leurs mûriers par le givre.
48. Il livra leurs bêtes à la grêle, et leurs possessions au feu.
49. Il envoya contre eux la colère de son indignation, l’indignation, la colère et la tribulation, envoyées par des anges mauvais.
50. Il fraya un chemin au sentier de sa colère; il n’épargna pas leurs âmes de la mort et enferma leurs bêtes dans la mort.
51. Il frappa tout premier-né dans la terre d’Égypte, les prémices de tout leur labeur dans les tentes de Cham.
52. Il emmena son peuple comme des brebis et les conduisit comme un troupeau dans le désert.
53. Il les conduisit dans l’espérance, et ils ne craignirent pas; la mer couvrit leurs ennemis.
54. Il les introduisit dans la montagne de son sanctuaire, la montagne que sa droite avait acquise; il chassa les nations devant eux et leur partagea au sort la terre au cordeau.
55. Il fit habiter les tribus d’Israël dans leurs tentes.
56. Mais ils tentèrent et exaspérèrent le Dieu très-haut, et ils ne gardèrent pas ses témoignages.
57. Ils se détournèrent et ne gardèrent pas l’alliance; comme leurs pères, ils devinrent un arc trompeur.
58. Ils provoquèrent sa colère sur leurs collines et excitèrent sa jalousie par leurs images sculptées.
59. Dieu entendit et méprisa, et il réduisit profondément Israël à néant.
60. Il repoussa le tabernacle de Silo, son tabernacle où il avait habité parmi les hommes.
61. Il livra leur puissance à la captivité, et leur beauté aux mains de l’ennemi.
62. Il enferma son peuple dans le glaive et méprisa son héritage.
63. Le feu dévora leurs jeunes hommes, et leurs vierges ne furent pas pleurées.
64. Leurs prêtres tombèrent par le glaive, et leurs veuves ne furent pas pleurées.
65. Alors le Seigneur s’éveilla comme un homme endormi, comme un homme puissant alourdi par le vin.
66. Il frappa ses ennemis par-derrière et leur donna un opprobre éternel.
67. Il repoussa le tabernacle de Joseph et ne choisit pas la tribu d’Éphraïm.
68. Mais il choisit la tribu de Juda, la montagne de Sion qu’il a aimée.
69. Il bâtit son sanctuaire comme celui de la licorne, sur la terre qu’il a fondée pour les siècles.
70. Il choisit David, son serviteur, et le prit parmi les troupeaux de brebis; il le prit derrière les brebis qui allaitaient,
71. pour faire paître Jacob, son serviteur, et Israël, son héritage.
72. Il les fit paître dans l’innocence de son cœur, et les conduisit par l’intelligence de ses mains.]
