1A psalm for David. Rejoice in the Lord, O ye just: praise becometh the upright.
1De David. Cantique. Heureux celui à qui la transgression est remise, A qui le péché est pardonné!
2Give praise to the Lord on the harp; sing to him with the psaltery, the instrument of ten strings.
2Heureux l’homme à qui l’Éternel n’impute pas d’iniquité, Et dans l’esprit duquel il n’y a point de fraude!
3Sing to him a new canticle, sing well unto him with a loud noise.
3Tant que je me suis tu, mes os se consumaient, Je gémissais toute la journée;
4For the word of the Lord is right, and all his works are done with faithfulness.
4Car nuit et jour ta main s’appesantissait sur moi, Ma vigueur n’était plus que sécheresse, comme celle de l’été. — Pause.
5He loveth mercy and judgment; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.
5Je t’ai fait connaître mon péché, je n’ai pas caché mon iniquité; J’ai dit: J’avouerai mes transgressions à l’Éternel! Et tu as effacé la peine de mon péché. — Pause.
6By the word of the Lord the heavens were established; and all the power of them by the spirit of his mouth:
6Qu’ainsi tout homme pieux te prie au temps convenable! Si de grandes eaux débordent, elles ne l’atteindront nullement.
7Gathering together the waters of the sea, as in a vessel; laying up the depths in storehouses.
7Tu es un asile pour moi, tu me garantis de la détresse, Tu m’entoures de chants de délivrance. — Pause.
8Let all the earth fear the Lord, and let all the inhabitants of the world be in awe of him.
8Je t’instruirai et te montrerai la voie que tu dois suivre; Je te conseillerai, j’aurai le regard sur toi.
9For he spoke and they were made: he commanded and they were created.
9Ne soyez pas comme un cheval ou un mulet sans intelligence; On les bride avec un frein et un mors, dont on les pare, Afin qu’ils ne s’approchent point de toi.
10The Lord bringeth to naught the counsels of nations; and he rejecteth the devices of people, and casteth away the counsels of princes.
10Beaucoup de douleurs sont la part du méchant, Mais celui qui se confie en l’Éternel est environné de sa grâce.
11But the counsel of the Lord standeth for ever: the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
11Justes, réjouissez-vous en l’Éternel et soyez dans l’allégresse! Poussez des cris de joie, vous tous qui êtes droits de cœur!
12Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord: the people whom he hath chosen for his inheritance.
