Psalms 74:20 in Context — Psalms 74

18 Souviens-toi que l’ennemi outrage l’Éternel, Et qu’un peuple insensé méprise ton nom!

19 Ne livre pas aux bêtes l’âme de ta tourterelle, N’oublie pas à toujours la vie de tes malheureux!

20 Aie égard à l’alliance! Car les lieux sombres du pays sont pleins de repaires de brigands.

21 Que l’opprimé ne retourne pas confus! Que le malheureux et le pauvre célèbrent ton nom!

22 Lève-toi, ô Dieu! Défends ta cause! Souviens-toi des outrages que te fait chaque jour l’insensé!
