Psalms 39:11 in Context — Psalms 39
9 Délivre-moi de toutes mes transgressions! Ne me rends pas l’opprobre de l’insensé!
10 Je reste muet, je n’ouvre pas la bouche, Car c’est toi qui agis.
11 Détourne de moi tes coups! Je succombe sous les attaques de ta main.
12 Tu châties l’homme en le punissant de son iniquité, Tu détruis comme la teigne ce qu’il a de plus cher. Oui, tout homme est un souffle. — Pause.
13 Écoute ma prière, Éternel, et prête l’oreille à mes cris! Ne sois pas insensible à mes larmes! Car je suis un étranger chez toi, Un habitant, comme tous mes pères.
