| 1 | Pourquoi, ô Éternel! te tiens-tu loin, te caches-tu aux temps de la détresse? | Why standest thou afar off, O LORD? why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble? | Why standest thou afar off, O Jehovah? Why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble? |
| 2 | Le méchant, dans son orgueil, poursuit ardemment l'affligé; ils seront pris dans les trames qu'ils ont ourdies. | The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined. | In the pride of the wicked the poor is hotly pursued; Let them be taken in the devices that they have conceived. |
| 3 | Car le méchant se glorifie du désir de son âme; et il bénit l'avare, il méprise l'Éternel. | For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the LORD abhorreth. | For the wicked boasteth of his heart`s desire, And the covetous renounceth, [yea], contemneth Jehovah. |
| 4 | Le méchant, dans la fierté de sa face, dit: Il ne s'enquerra de rien. - Il n'y a point de Dieu: voilà toutes ses pensées. | The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts. | The wicked, in the pride of his countenance, [saith], He will not require [it]. All his thoughts are, There is no God. |

| 7 | Sa bouche est pleine de malédiction, et de tromperies, et d'oppressions; il n'y a sous sa langue que trouble et que vanité. | His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity. | His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and oppression: Under his tongue is mischief and iniquity. |
| 8 | Il se tient aux embuscades des villages; dans des lieux cachés, il tue l'innocent; ses yeux épient le malheureux. | He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor. | He sitteth in the lurking-places of the villages; In the secret places doth he murder the innocent; His eyes are privily set against the helpless. |
| 9 | Il se tient aux embûches dans un lieu caché, comme un lion dans son fourré; il se tient aux embûches pour enlever l'affligé; il enlève l'affligé, quand il l'a attiré dans son filet. | He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net. | He lurketh in secret as a lion in his covert; He lieth in wait to catch the poor: He doth catch the poor, when he draweth him in his net. |
| 10 | Il se tapit, il se baisse, afin que les malheureux tombent par sa force. | He croucheth, and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones. | He croucheth, he boweth down, And the helpless fall by his strong ones. |

| 12 | Éternel! O Dieu, élève ta main! n'oublie pas les affligés. | Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble. | Arise, O Jehovah; O God, lift up thy hand: Forget not the poor. |
| 13 | Pourquoi le méchant méprise-t-il Dieu? Il dit en son coeur: Tu ne t'enquerras pas. | Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it. | Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God, And say in his heart, Thou wilt not require [it]? |
| 14 | Tu l'as vu, car toi tu regardes la peine et le chagrin pour les rendre par ta main; le malheureux s'abandonne à toi, tu es le secours de l'orphelin. | Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless. | Thou hast seen [it]; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: The helpless committeth [himself] unto thee; Thou hast been the helper of the fatherless. |
| 15 | Casse le bras du méchant, et recherche l'iniquité du méchant jusqu'à ce que tu n'en trouves plus. | Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou find none. | Break thou the arm of the wicked; And as for the evil man, seek out his wickedness till thou find none. |
| 16 | L'Éternel est roi à toujours et à perpétuité; les nations ont péri de dessus sa terre. | The LORD is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land. | Jehovah is King for ever and ever: The nations are perished out of his land. |
| 17 | Éternel! tu as exaucé le désir des débonnaires, tu as établi leur coeur; tu as prêté l'oreille, | LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear: | Jehovah, thou hast heard the desire of the meek: Thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear; |
| 18 | Pour faire droit à l'orphelin et à l'opprimé, afin que l'homme qui est de la terre n'effraye plus. | To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress. | To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, That man who is of the earth may be terrible no more. Psalm 11 For the Chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David. |
