< Psalms 92 >

1 Yahweh, it is good for people to thank you and to sing to praise you [MTY] who are greater than any other god.
Psaume. — Cantique pour le jour du Sabbat. Il est bon de célébrer l'Éternel, Et de psalmodier à la gloire de ton nom, ô Très-Haut,
2 It is good to proclaim every morning that you faithfully love us, and each night [to sing songs that] declare that you always do what you have promised to do,
D'annoncer dès le matin ta bonté. Et pendant la nuit, ta fidélité,
3 accompanied by [musicians playing] harps that have ten strings, and by the sounds made by a lyre.
Au son de la lyre, aux accords du luth Et de la harpe!
4 Yahweh, you have caused me to be glad; I sing joyfully because of what you [SYN] have done.
Éternel, tu m'as rempli de joie Par la grandeur de tes oeuvres; Je célèbre avec allégresse les ouvrages de tes mains.
5 Yahweh, the things that you do are great! But it is difficult for us to understand [all] that you think.
Que tes oeuvres sont grandes, ô Éternel! Tes pensées sont merveilleusement profondes!
6 There are things [that you do] that foolish people cannot know about, things that stupid people cannot understand.
L'homme dépourvu de sens ne peut les connaître; L'insensé ne saurait les comprendre.
7 They do not understand that although the number of wicked [people] increases [like blades of] grass do [SIM], and they prosper, they will be completely destroyed.
Si les méchants croissent comme l'herbe, Et si tous les ouvriers d'iniquité fleurissent, C'est pour être détruits à jamais.
8 But Yahweh, you [will] exalted/be honored/rule) forever.
Mais toi, ô Éternel, tu es éternellement le Très-Haut.
9 Yahweh, your enemies will [certainly] die, and those who do wicked things will be defeated/scattered.
Tes ennemis, ô Éternel, Tes ennemis périront! Tous les ouvriers d'iniquité seront dispersés.
10 But you have caused me to be as strong [MTY] as [SIM] a wild ox; you have caused me to be very joyful [MTY].
Mais tu me donnes la force du buffle; Je suis oint d'une huile fraîche.
11 I [SYN] have seen you defeat my enemies; d I have heard those evil men wail/scream while they were being slaughtered.
Mon oeil pourra contempler ceux qui m'épient; Mes oreilles entendront sans crainte Les méchants qui s'élèvent contre moi.
12 But righteous [people] will prosper like [SIM] palm trees that grow well, or like [SIM] cedar [trees] that grow in Lebanon.
Les justes croîtront comme le palmier; Ils s'élèveront comme le cèdre du Liban.
13 [They are like the trees] that grow near the temple of Yahweh [in Jerusalem], those trees that are close to the courtyard of the temple of our God.
Plantés dans la maison de l'Éternel, Dans les parvis de notre Dieu, ils se couvriront de fleurs.
14 [Even] when righteous people become old, they do many things [IDM] [that please God]. They remain strong and full of energy, [like trees that] [MET] remain full of sap.
Ils porteront encore des fruits dans la blanche vieillesse; Ils seront vigoureux et verdoyants,
15 That shows that Yahweh is just; he is [like a huge] rock [under which I am safe/protected], and he never does anything that is wicked/wrong.
Pour annoncer que l'Éternel juge avec équité. C'est lui qui est mon rocher, et il n'y a point en lui d'injustice.
