Psalms 99

1 The LORD reigns; let the nations tremble! He is enthroned above the cherubim; let the earth quake!

Yahweh est roi: les peuples tremblent; il est assis sur les Chérubins; la terre chancelle.

2 Great is the LORD in Zion; He is exalted above all the peoples.

Yahweh est grand dans Sion, il est élevé au dessus de tous les peuples.

3 Let them praise Your great and awesome name— He is holy!

Qu’on célèbre ton nom grand et redoutable! — Il est saint!

4 The mighty King loves justice. You have established equity; You have exercised justice and righteousness in Jacob.

Qu’on célèbre la puissance du Roi qui aime la justice! Tu affermis la droiture, tu exerces en Jacob la justice et l’équité.

5 Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at His footstool; He is holy!

Exaltez Yahweh, notre Dieu, et prosternez-vous devant l’escabeau de ses pieds. — Il est saint!

6 Moses and Aaron were among His priests; Samuel was among those who called on His name. They called to the LORD and He answered.

Moïse et Aaron étaient parmi ses prêtres, et Samuel parmi ceux qui invoquaient son nom. Ils invoquaient Yahweh, et il les exauçait,

7 He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept His decrees and the statutes He gave them.

il leur parlait dans la colonne de nuée. Ils observaient ses commandements, et la loi qu’il leur avait donnée.

8 O LORD our God, You answered them. You were a forgiving God to them, yet an avenger of their misdeeds.

Yahweh, notre Dieu, tu les exauças, tu fus pour eux un Dieu clément, et tu les punis de leurs fautes.

9 Exalt the LORD our God and worship at His holy mountain, for the LORD our God is holy.

Exaltez Yahweh, notre Dieu, et prosternez-vous devant sa montagne sainte, car il est saint, Yahweh notre Dieu!
