Language: French (Français) after the Latin
Our translations: ENG
Du fond de l'abîme je t'invoque, Iahvé Adonaï. Ecoute ma prière! Que tes oreilles soient attentives Aux accents de ma prière! Si tu prends garde aux péchés, Qui donc pourra tenir, Iahvé? La clémence est en Iahvé Afin qu'on le révère. Mon âme espère en Iahvé, J'espère, je compte sur sa parole Plus que les guetteurs de la nuit N'aspirent au matin. Israël espère en Iahvé, Car en Iahvé est la miséricorde. Et l'abondance de la délivrance. C'est lui qui délivrera Israel, De toutes ses iniquités En Iahvé est la clémence. Ah! Iahvé Adonaï.
