< Psalms 75 >
1 We give thanks to you; our God, we thank you. You are close to us, and we proclaim to others the wonderful things that you have done [for us].
Au chef de musique. Al-Tashkheth. Psaume d’Asaph. Cantique. Nous te célébrons, ô Dieu! nous te célébrons, et ton nom est proche: tes merveilles le racontent.
2 [You have said], “I have appointed a time when I will judge people, and I will judge [everyone] fairly.
Quand je recevrai l’assemblée, je jugerai avec droiture.
3 When the earth shakes and all the creatures on the earth tremble, I am the one who will (keep its foundations steady/prevent it from being destroyed).
La terre et tous ses habitants se sont fondus; moi, j’affermis ses piliers. (Sélah)
4 I say to people who (boast/talk proudly about themselves), ‘Stop bragging!’ and I say to wicked people, ‘Do not proudly [do things to] show how great you are [IDM]!
J’ai dit à ceux qui se glorifient: Ne vous glorifiez pas; et aux méchants: N’élevez pas [votre] corne;
5 Do not be arrogant, and do not speak so boastfully!’”
N’élevez pas en haut votre corne, ne parlez pas avec arrogance, d’un cou [roide].
6 The one who judges people does not come from the east or from the west, and he does not come from the desert.
Car ce n’est ni du levant, ni du couchant, ni du midi, que vient l’élévation.
7 God is the one who judges people; he says that some have sinned and must be punished, and that others have not done what is wrong.
Car c’est Dieu qui juge; il abaisse l’un, et élève l’autre.
8 [It is as though] Yahweh holds a cup in his hand; it is filled with wine that [has spices] mixed in it [to cause those who drink it to become more drunk]; and when Yahweh pours it out, he will force all the wicked people to drink it; they will drink every drop of it, [which means that he will give them all the punishment that they deserve].
Car une coupe est dans la main de l’Éternel, et elle écume de vin; elle est pleine de mixtion, et il en verse: oui, tous les méchants de la terre en suceront la lie, ils la boiront.
9 But [as for me], I will never stop saying what the God whom Jacob [worshiped has done]; I will never quit singing to praise him.
Mais moi, je raconterai [ces choses] à toujours; je chanterai au Dieu de Jacob.
10 He will destroy the power [IDM] of wicked people, but he will cause righteous people to become more powerful.
Et toutes les cornes des méchants, je les abattrai; [mais] les cornes des justes seront élevées.
