Psalms 39:9 in Context — Psalms 39

7 Oui, l’homme se promène comme une ombre, Il s’agite vainement; Il amasse, et il ne sait qui recueillera.

8 Maintenant, Seigneur, que puis-je espérer? En toi est mon espérance.

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.
