1Cantique. Psaume des fils de Koré.
1Unto the end, a psalm for the sons of Core.
2L’Éternel est grand, il est l’objet de toutes les louanges, Dans la ville de notre Dieu, sur sa montagne sainte.
2Hear these things, all ye nations: give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world.
3Belle est la colline, joie de toute la terre, la montagne de Sion; Le côté septentrional, c’est la ville du grand roi.
3All you that are earthborn, and you sons of men: both rich and poor together.
4Dieu, dans ses palais, est connu pour une haute retraite.
4My mouth shall speak wisdom: and the meditation of my heart understanding.
5Car voici, les rois s’étaient concertés: Ils n’ont fait que passer ensemble.
5I will incline my ear to a parable; I will open my proposition on the psaltery.
6Ils ont regardé, tout stupéfaits, Ils ont eu peur, et ont pris la fuite.
6Why shall I fear in the evil day? the iniquity of my heel shall encompass me.
7Là un tremblement les a saisis, Comme la douleur d’une femme qui accouche.
7They that trust in their own strength, and glory in the multitude of their riches,
8Ils ont été chassés comme par le vent d’orient, Qui brise les navires de Tarsis.
8No brother can redeem, nor shall man redeem: he shall not give to God his ransom,
9Ce que nous avions entendu dire, nous l’avons vu Dans la ville de l’Éternel des armées, Dans la ville de notre Dieu: Dieu la fera subsister à toujours. — Pause.
9Nor the price of the redemption of his soul: and shall labour for ever,
10O Dieu, nous pensons à ta bonté Au milieu de ton temple.
10And shall still live unto the end.
11Comme ton nom, ô Dieu! Ta louange retentit jusqu’aux extrémités de la terre; Ta droite est pleine de justice.
11He shall not see destruction, when he shall see the wise dying: the senseless and the fool shall perish together: And they shall leave their riches to strangers:
12La montagne de Sion se réjouit, Les filles de Juda sont dans l’allégresse, A cause de tes jugements.
12And their sepulchres shall be their houses for ever. Their dwelling places to all generations: they have called their lands by their names.
13Parcourez Sion, parcourez-en l’enceinte, Comptez ses tours,
13And man when he was in honour did not understand; he is compared to senseless beasts, and is become like to them.
14Observez son rempart, Examinez ses palais, Pour le raconter à la génération future.
14This way of theirs is a stumblingblock to them: and afterwards they shall delight in their mouth.
15Voilà le Dieu qui est notre Dieu éternellement et à jamais; Il sera notre guide jusqu’à la mort.
15They are laid in hell like sheep: death shall feed upon them. And the just shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their help shall decay in hell from their glory.
