| 1 | Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation. | Psaume de David, donné au maître chantre, d'entre les enfants de Jéduthun. Quoiqu'il en soit, mon âme se repose en Dieu; c'est de lui que vient ma délivrance. | My soul waiteth in silence for God only: From him [cometh] my salvation. |
| 2 | He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved. | Quoiqu'il en soit, il est mon rocher, et ma délivrance, et ma haute retraite; je ne serai pas entièrement ébranlé. | He only is my rock and my salvation: [He is] my high tower; I shall not be greatly moved. |
| 3 | How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you: as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence. | Jusques à quand machinerez-vous des maux contre un homme? Vous serez tous mis à mort, et vous serez comme le mur qui penche, et comme une cloison qui a été ébranlée. | How long will ye set upon a man, That ye may slay [him], all of you, Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence? |
| 4 | They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah. | Ils ne font que consulter pour le faire déchoir de son élévation; ils prennent plaisir au mensonge; ils bénissent de leur bouche, mais au-dedans ils maudissent; Sélah. | They only consult to thrust him down from his dignity; They delight in lies; They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah |
| 5 | My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him. | Mais toi mon âme, demeure tranquille, regardant à Dieu; car mon attente est en lui. | My soul, wait thou in silence for God only; For my expectation is from him. |
| 6 | He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved. | Quoiqu'il en soit, il est mon rocher, et ma délivrance, et ma haute retraite; je ne serai point ébranlé. | He only is my rock and my salvation: [He is] my high tower; I shall not be moved. |
| 7 | In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. | En Dieu est ma délivrance et ma gloire; en Dieu est le rocher de ma force et ma retraite. | With God is my salvation and my glory: The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. |
| 8 | Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah. | Peuples, confiez-vous en lui en tout temps, déchargez votre coeur devant lui; Dieu est notre retraite; Sélah. | Trust in him at all times, ye people; Pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah |
| 9 | Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than vanity. | Ceux du bas état ne sont que vanité: les nobles ne sont que mensonge; si on les mettait tous ensemble en une balance, ils se trouveraient plus légers que la vanité même. | Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: In the balances they will go up; They are together lighter than vanity. |
| 10 | Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them. | Ne mettez point votre confiance dans la tromperie, ni dans la rapine; ne devenez point vains; et quand les richesses abonderont, n'y mettez point votre cœur. | Trust not in oppression, And become not vain in robbery: If riches increase, set not your heart [thereon]. |
| 11 | God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God. | Dieu a une fois parlé, et j'ai ouï cela deux fois, savoir, que la force est à Dieu. | God hath spoken once, Twice have I heard this, That power belongeth unto God. |
| 12 | Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work. | Et c'est à toi, Seigneur, qu'appartient la gratuité; certainement tu rendras à chacun selon son oeuvre. | Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth lovingkindness; For thou renderest to every man according to his work. Psalm 63 A Psalm of David when he was in the wilderness of Judah. |
