J'espère en l'Eternel, Qui cache sa face à la maison de Jacob; Je place en lui ma confiance.
Io dunque aspetterò il Signore, il quale nasconde la sua faccia dalla casa di Giacobbe; e spererò in lui.
E esperarei ao SENHOR, que esconde o seu rosto da casa de Jacó, e a ele aguardarei.
我要等候那轉臉不顧 雅各 家的耶和華,也要仰望他。
