< 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. La terre appartient à l'Éternel, et ce qu'elle contient, le monde et 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 il l'a fondée au-dessus des mers, et l'a affermie au-dessus des 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 pourra monter à la montagne de l'Éternel? Et qui se tiendra dans le lieu de sa sainteté?
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].
C'est l'homme qui a les mains nettes et le cœur pur, dont l'âme ne se porte pas vers la fausseté, 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 recevra la bénédiction de l'Éternel, et la justice de Dieu, son Sauveur.
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 recherchent ta face, la race de Jacob. (Sélah)
7 Open up [APO] the [temple] gates in order that our glorious king may enter!
Portes, élevez vos linteaux! Haussez-vous, portes éternelles, et le roi de gloire entrera.
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!
Qui est ce roi de gloire? L'Éternel, le fort, le puissant, l'Éternel puissant dans les combats.
9 Open up the [temple] gates in order that our glorious king may enter!
Portes, élevez vos linteaux! Élevez-les, portes éternelles, et le roi de gloire entrera.
10 [Do you know] who the glorious king is? He is Yahweh almighty; he is our glorious king!
Qui est-il, ce roi de gloire? L'Éternel des armées; c'est lui qui est le roi de gloire! (Sélah)
