Psalms 27:2 in Context — Psalms 27

1 De David. L’Éternel est ma lumière et mon salut: De qui aurais-je crainte? L’Éternel est le soutien de ma vie: De qui aurais-je peur?

2 Quand des méchants s’avancent contre moi, Pour dévorer ma chair, Ce sont mes persécuteurs et mes ennemis Qui chancellent et tombent.

3 Si une armée se campait contre moi, Mon cœur n’aurait aucune crainte; Si une guerre s’élevait contre moi, Je serais malgré cela plein de confiance.

4 Je demande à l’Éternel une chose, que je désire ardemment: Je voudrais habiter toute ma vie dans la maison de l’Éternel, Pour contempler la magnificence de l’Éternel Et pour admirer son temple.
