< Psalms 112 >
1 Praise Yahweh! (Happy are/He is pleased with) those who revere him, those who happily obey his commands.
Alléluiah! Heureux l'homme qui craint le Seigneur; il se complaira en ses commandements.
2 Their children will prosper in their land; and their descendants will be blessed [by God].
Sa postérité sera puissante sur la terre; la génération des justes sera bénie.
3 Their families [MTY] will be very wealthy [DOU], and [the results of] their righteous deeds will endure forever.
La gloire et la richesse seront en sa demeure, et sa justice durera dans tous les siècles des siècles.
4 Godly/Righteous people are [like] lights [SIM] that shine in the darkness on those who are kind, merciful and righteous.
La lumière s'est levée dans les ténèbres sur les cœurs droits; le Seigneur est tendre, compatissant et juste.
5 Things [will] go well for those who generously lend money to others and who conduct their businesses honestly.
L'homme bon est miséricordieux; il prête au pauvre; il dirigera ses discours avec discernement.
6 Righteous people will not be overwhelmed/worried/distressed [because of their troubles], and they will never be forgotten [by other people].
Car il ne sera jamais ébranlé.
7 They are not afraid of [receiving] bad news; they confidently/completely trust in Yahweh.
La mémoire du juste sera éternelle; il n'aura rien à craindre des discours méchants; son cœur est disposé à espérer dans le Seigneur,
8 They are confident and not afraid, because they know that they will see [God defeat] their enemies.
En lui son cœur est affermi. Il ne craindra point à la vue de ses ennemis.
9 They give things generously to poor/needy [people]; [the results of] their kind deeds will endure forever, and they [will] be exalted and honored.
Il a distribué et donné ses biens aux pauvres; sa justice demeure dans les siècles des siècles; son front sera élevé en gloire.
10 Wicked people see those things and are angry; they gnash their teeth [angrily], but they [will] disappear [and die]. The [wicked] things that they want to do [will] never happen.
Le pécheur le verra, et s'en irritera; il grincera des dents, et sera consumé; le désir des pécheurs périra.
