Psalms 99

1 A Psalm of David himself. The Lord has reigned: let the peoples be angry. He sits upon the cherubim: let the earth be moved.

L'Eternel règne, que les peuples tremblent; il est assis entre les Chérubins, que la terre soit ébranlée.

2 The Lord is great in Zion, and he is high above all peoples.

L'Eternel est grand en Sion, et il est élevé par-dessus tous les peuples.

3 May they confess to your great name, for it is terrible and holy.

Ils célébreront ton Nom, grand et terrible; car il est saint;

4 And the honor of the king loves judgment. You have prepared guidance. You have accomplished judgment and justice in Jacob.

Et la force du Roi, [car] il aime la justice; tu as ordonné l'équité, tu as prononcé des jugements justes en Jacob.

5 Exalt the Lord our God, and adore the footstool of his feet, for it is holy.

Exaltez l'Eternel notre Dieu, et prosternez-vous devant son marchepied; il est saint.

6 Moses and Aaron are among his priests, and Samuel is among those who call upon his name. They called upon the Lord, and he heeded them.

Moïse et Aaron ont été entre ses Sacrificateurs; et Samuel entre ceux qui invoquaient son Nom; ils invoquaient l'Eternel, et il leur répondait.

7 He spoke to them in the pillar of the cloud. They kept his testimonies and the precept that he gave them.

Il parlait à eux de la colonne de nuée; ils ont gardé ses témoignages et l'ordonnance qu'il leur avait donnée.

8 You heeded them, O Lord our God. You were a forgiving God to them, though taking vengeance on all their inventions.

Ô Eternel mon Dieu! tu les as exaucés, tu leur as été un [Dieu] Fort, leur pardonnant, et faisant vengeance de leurs actes.

9 Exalt the Lord our God, and adore on his holy mountain. For the Lord our God is holy.

Exaltez l'Eternel notre Dieu, et prosternez-vous en la montagne de sa Sainteté, car l'Eternel, notre Dieu est saint.
