4 Tous les rois de la terre te loueront, ô Éternel! En entendant les paroles de ta bouche;
5 Ils célébreront les voies de l’Éternel, Car la gloire de l’Éternel est grande.
6 L’Éternel est élevé: il voit les humbles, Et il reconnaît de loin les orgueilleux.
7 Quand je marche au milieu de la détresse, tu me rends la vie, Tu étends ta main sur la colère de mes ennemis, Et ta droite me sauve.
