1Unto the end. A psalm for David.
1Au chef des chantres. Psaume de David.
2In thy strength, O Lord, the king shall joy; and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly.
2Que l’Éternel t’exauce au jour de la détresse, Que le nom du Dieu de Jacob te protège!
3Thou hast given him his heart’s desire: and hast not withholden from him the will of his lips.
3Que du sanctuaire il t’envoie du secours, Que de Sion il te soutienne!
4For thou hast prevented him with blessings of sweetness: thou hast set on his head a crown of precious stones.
4Qu’il se souvienne de toutes tes offrandes, Et qu’il agrée tes holocaustes! — Pause.
5He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever.
5Qu’il te donne ce que ton cœur désire, Et qu’il accomplisse tous tes desseins!
6His glory is great in thy salvation: glory and great beauty shalt thou lay upon him.
6Nous nous réjouirons de ton salut, Nous lèverons l’étendard au nom de notre Dieu; L’Éternel exaucera tous tes vœux.
7For thou shalt give him to be a blessing for ever and ever: thou shalt make him joyful in gladness with thy countenance.
7Je sais déjà que l’Éternel sauve son oint; Il l’exaucera des cieux, de sa sainte demeure, Par le secours puissant de sa droite.
8For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
8Ceux-ci s’appuient sur leurs chars, ceux-là sur leurs chevaux; Nous, nous invoquons le nom de l’Éternel, notre Dieu.
9Let thy hand be found by all thy enemies: let thy right hand find out all them that hate thee.
9Eux, ils plient, et ils tombent; Nous, nous tenons ferme, et restons debout.
10Thou shalt make them as an oven of fire, in the time of thy anger: the Lord shall trouble them in his wrath, and fire shall devour them.
10Éternel, sauve le roi! Qu’il nous exauce, quand nous l’invoquons!
11Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth: and their seed from among the children of men.
