Psalms 113

1 Praise Yahweh! You people who serve Yahweh, praise him! Praise (him/his name)!

Alléluiah! Louez le Seigneur, enfants, louez le nom du Seigneur.

2 Yahweh should be praised now and forever!

Béni soit le nom du Seigneur, maintenant et dans tous les siècles.

3 People who live in the east and people who live in the west, everyone, should praise Yahweh [MTY]!

De l'Orient à l'Occident, le nom du Seigneur est digne de louange.

4 Yahweh rules [MTY] over all the nations, and high in the heavens he shows that his glory is very great.

Le Seigneur est élevé sur toutes les nations; et sa gloire, au-dessus des cieux.

5 There is no one [RHQ] who is like Yahweh, our God, who lives/sits/rules in the highest heaven,

Qui est comme le Seigneur notre Dieu, qui habite les hauteurs des cieux,

6 and looks far down through the heavens and sees the [people on] the earth.

Et regarde les humbles dans le ciel et sur la terre?

7 [Sometimes] he lifts poor people up [so that they no longer sit in] the dirt; he helps needy [people so that they no longer sit on] heaps of ashes

Il retire l'indigent de la poussière, il relève le pauvre de la fange,

8 and causes them to [be honored] by sitting next to princes, the sons of the kings [who rule] their people.

Pour les faire asseoir avec les princes, avec les princes de son peuple.

9 He also enables women who have no children to have a family; he causes them to be happy mothers. Praise Yahweh!

Il fait demeurer la femme stérile dans sa maison, où elle trouve les joies d'une mère en ses enfants.
