Psalms 84
1 Lord, you who are the Commander of the armies of angels, your temple is very beautiful!
Jusqu'à la Fin, sur les pressoirs, psaume des fils de Koré. Que tes tabernacles sont aimables. Seigneur, Dieu des armées!
2 I [SYN] would like to be there; Yahweh, I desire that very much [DOU]. With all of my inner being I sing joyfully to you, the all-powerful God.
Mon âme succombe à désirer les parvis du Seigneur; mon cœur et ma chair ont tressailli dans le Dieu vivant.
3 Even sparrows and swallows have built nests [near your temple, where you protect them] [DOU]; they take care of their young babies near the altars [where people offer sacrifices to] you, who are the commander of the armies of heaven, and my king and my God.
Car le passereau a trouvé pour lui une demeure, et la tourterelle un nid où elle dépose sa couvée. Tes autels, Seigneur, Dieu des armées, ô mon roi, ô mon Dieu!
4 (Happy are/You are pleased with) those who (live/continually worship) in your temple, constantly singing to praise you.
Heureux ceux qui demeurent en ta maison; ils te loueront dans tous les siècles des siècles.
5 Happy are those who [know that] you are the one who causes them to be strong, those who strongly desire to (make the trip/go) to Zion [Hill].
Heureux l'homme dont l'aide vient de toi, Seigneur; il a disposé en son cœur des degrés pour monter
6 While they travel through the [dry] Baca Valley, [you cause] it to become a place where there are springs of water, where the rains (in the autumn/before the cold season) fill the valley with pools of water.
En la vallée des pleurs, au lieu que le Seigneur a établi.
7 [As a result, those who travel through there] become stronger/refreshed [knowing that] they will appear in your presence (on Zion [Hill]/in Jerusalem).
Car le législateur leur donnera des bénédictions; ils iront de vertus en vertus, et le Dieu des dieux leur apparaîtra en Sion.
8 Yahweh, commander of the armies of heaven, listen to my prayer; God, who [is worshiped by us (descendants of] Jacob/Israeli people), hear [IDM] what I am saying!
Seigneur, Dieu des armées, écoute ma prière; prête-moi l'oreille, Dieu de Jacob!
9 God, be kind to [IDM] our king, the one who protects us [MTY], the one whom you have chosen [MTY] [to rule us].
Notre protecteur, ô mon Dieu, vois et regarde la face de ton Christ.
10 [For me], spending one day in your temple is better than spending 1,000 days somewhere else; [standing] at the entrance to your temple, [ready to go inside], is better than living in the tents/homes where wicked [people live].
Car un seul jour dans tes parvis est meilleur qu'un millier de jours; j'ai mieux aimé être humble dans la saison de Dieu que d'habiter sous les tentes des pécheurs;
11 Yahweh our God is [like] the sun [that shines on us] and [like] a shield [that protects us] [MET]; he is kind to [us] and honors [us]. Yahweh does not refuse to give any good thing/blessing to those who do what is right.
Parce que le Seigneur aime la miséricorde et la vérité; Dieu est le distributeur de la grâce et de la gloire.
12 Yahweh, commander of the armies of heaven, (happy are/you are pleased with) those who trust in you!
Dieu ne fera pas attendre ses biens à ceux qui marchent dans l'innocence; Seigneur, Dieu des armées, heureux l'homme qui espère en toi!
