Psalms 24
1 The earth and everything in it belongs to Yahweh; all the people in the world belong to him, too,
Psaume de David. À Yahweh est la terre et ce qu’elle renferme, le monde et tous ceux qui l’habitent.
2 because he caused the ground to be above the water, above the water that was deep below the surface of the earth.
Car c’est lui qui l’a fondée sur les mers, qui l’a affermie sur les fleuves.
3 Who will be allowed to go up on Zion Hill [in Jerusalem], in order to stand [and worship] in Yahweh’s holy temple?
Qui montera à la montagne de Yahweh? qui se tiendra dans son lieu saint? —
4 [Only] those whose actions [MTY] and thoughts are pure, who have not worshiped idols, and who do not tell lies when they have solemnly promised [to tell the truth].
Celui qui a les mains innocentes et le cœur pur; celui qui ne livre pas son âme au mensonge, et qui ne jure pas pour tromper.
5 (They will be blessed by Yahweh/Yahweh will bless them). When God [judges them], he, who has saved them, will say that they (have done nothing wrong/are without fault).
Il obtiendra la bénédiction de Yahweh, la justice du Dieu de son salut.
6 They are the ones who approach God, they are the ones who may worship God, the one [we] Israelis worship.
Telle est la race de ceux qui le cherchent, de ceux qui cherchent la face du Dieu de Jacob. — Séla.
7 Open up [APO] the [temple] gates in order that our glorious king may enter!
Portes, élevez vos linteaux; élevez-vous, portes antiques: que le Roi de gloire fasse son entrée! —
8 [Do you know] who the glorious king is? He is Yahweh, the one who is very strong [DOU]; He is Yahweh, who conquers [all his enemies] in battles!
Quel est ce Roi de gloire? — Yahweh fort et puissant, Yahweh puissant dans les combats.
9 Open up the [temple] gates in order that our glorious king may enter!
Portes, élevez vos linteaux; élevez-vous, portes antiques: que le Roi de gloire fasse son entrée! —
10 [Do you know] who the glorious king is? He is Yahweh almighty; he is our glorious king!
Quel est ce Roi de gloire? — Yahweh des armées, voilà le Roi de gloire! — Séla.
