Psaumes 30

Louis Segond 1910 (LSG) · Français

1 Psaume. Cantique pour la dédicace de la maison. De David. 2 Je t’exalte, ô Éternel, car tu m’as relevé, Tu n’as pas voulu que mes ennemis se réjouissent à mon sujet. 3 Éternel, mon Dieu ! J’ai crié à toi, et tu m’as guéri. 4 Éternel ! tu as fait remonter mon âme du séjour des morts, Tu m’as fait revivre loin de ceux qui descendent dans la fosse. 5 Chantez à l’Éternel, vous qui l’aimez, Célébrez par vos louanges sa sainteté ! 6 Car sa colère dure un instant, Mais sa grâce toute la vie ; Le soir arrivent les pleurs, Et le matin l’allégresse. 7 Je disais dans ma sécurité : Je ne chancellerai jamais ! 8 Éternel ! par ta grâce tu avais affermi ma montagne… Tu cachas ta face, et je fus troublé. 9 Éternel ! j’ai crié à toi, J’ai imploré l’Éternel : 10 Que gagnes-tu à verser mon sang, À me faire descendre dans la fosse ? La poussière a-t-elle pour toi des louanges ? Raconte-t-elle ta fidélité ? 11 Écoute, Éternel, aie pitié de moi ! Éternel, secours-moi ! - 12 Et tu as changé mes lamentations en allégresse, Tu as délié mon sac, et tu m’as ceint de joie, 13 Afin que mon cœur te chante et ne soit pas muet. Éternel, mon Dieu ! je te louerai toujours.

Psaumes 30:1

PSALM 30

Psa 30:1-12. Literally, "A Psalm-Song"--a composition to be sung with musical instruments, or without them--or, "Song of the dedication," &c. specifying the particular character of the Psalm. Some suppose that of David should be connected with the name of the composition, and not with "house"; and refer for the occasion to the selection of a site for the temple (1Ch 21:26-30; 22:1). But "house" is never used absolutely for the temple, and "dedication" does not well apply to such an occasion. Though the phrase in the Hebrew, "dedication of the house of David," is an unusual form, yet it is equally unusual to disconnect the name of the author and the composition. As a "dedication of David's house" (as provided, De 20:5), the scope of the Psalm well corresponds with the state of repose and meditation on his past trials suited to such an occasion (2Sa 5:11; 7:2). For beginning with a celebration of God's delivering favor, in which he invites others to join, he relates his prayer in distress, and God's gracious and prompt answer.

1. lifted me up--as one is drawn from a well (Psa 40:2).

Psaumes 30:2

2. healed me--Affliction is often described as disease (Psa 6:2; 41:4; 107:20), and so relief by healing.

Psaumes 30:3

3. The terms describe extreme danger.

soul--or, "myself."

grave--literally, "hell," as in Psa 16:10.

hast kept me ... pit--quickened or revived me from the state of dying (compare Psa 28:1).

Psaumes 30:4

4. remembrance--the thing remembered or memorial.

holiness--as the sum of God's perfections (compare Psa 22:3), used as name (Ex 3:15; Psa 135:13).

Psaumes 30:5

5. Relatively, the longest experience of divine anger by the pious is momentary. These precious words have consoled millions.

Psaumes 30:6-7

6-7. What particular prosperity is meant we do not know; perhaps his accession to the throne. In his self-complacent elation he was checked by God's hiding His face (compare Psa 22:24; 27:9).

Psaumes 30:8-11

8-11. As in Psa 6:5; 88:10; Is 38:18, the appeal for mercy is based on the destruction of his agency in praising God here, which death would produce. The terms expressing relief are poetical, and not to be pressed, though "dancing" is the translation of a word which means a lute, whose cheerful notes are contrasted with mourning, or (Am 5:16) wailing.

Psaumes 30:12

12. Though "my" is supplied before "glory" it is better as in Psa 16:9, to receive it as used for tongue, the organ of praise. The ultimate end of God's mercies to us is our praise to Him.
