< Psalms 128 >

1 (Happy are/Yahweh is pleased with) those of you who revere him and do what he wants you to do [IDM].
Une chanson d'ascension. Heureux celui qui craint Yahvé, qui marche dans ses voies.
2 You will [be able to earn the money] that you [MTY] need to buy food; you will be happy and you will be prosperous.
Car vous mangerez le travail de vos mains. Vous serez heureux, et tout ira bien pour vous.
3 Your wife will be like a grapevine that bears many grapes [SIM]; she will give birth to many children. Your children who sit around your table will be like a strong olive [tree that has many] shoots [growing up around it] [SIM].
Ta femme sera comme une vigne féconde dans l'intérieur de ta maison, vos enfants comme des pousses d'olives autour de votre table.
4 Every man who reveres Yahweh will be blessed like that.
Voici comment est béni l'homme qui craint Yahvé.
5 I wish/hope that Yahweh will bless all of you from [where he dwells] (on Zion [Hill]/[in Jerusalem]) and that you will see [the people of] Jerusalem prospering every day that you live!
Que Yahvé vous bénisse de Sion, et que tu puisses voir le bien de Jérusalem tous les jours de ta vie.
6 I desire that you will live many years, long enough to see your grandchildren. I desire/hope that things will go well for [the people in] Israel!
Oui, vous pouvez voir les enfants de vos enfants. Que la paix soit avec Israël.
