29 Oui, tu es ma lumière, ô Éternel! L’Éternel éclaire mes ténèbres.

30 Avec toi je me précipite sur une troupe en armes, Avec mon Dieu je franchis une muraille.

31 Les voies de Dieu sont parfaites, La parole de l’Éternel est éprouvée; Il est un bouclier pour tous ceux qui se confient en lui.

32 Car qui est Dieu, si ce n’est l’Éternel? Et qui est un rocher, si ce n’est notre Dieu?

33 C’est Dieu qui est ma puissante forteresse, Et qui me conduit dans la voie droite.
