Psalms 96
1 Sing to Yahweh a new song! [You people] throughout the earth, sing to Yahweh!
Chantez à l’Éternel un cantique nouveau! Chantez à l’Éternel, vous tous, habitants de la terre!
2 Sing to Yahweh and praise him [MTY]! Every day proclaim [to others] that he has saved/rescued us.
Chantez à l’Éternel, bénissez son nom, Annoncez de jour en jour son salut!
3 Tell about his glory/greatness to all people-groups; tell all people-groups the marvelous [things that he has done].
Racontez parmi les nations sa gloire, Parmi tous les peuples ses merveilles!
4 Yahweh is great, and he deserves to be praised very much; he should be revered more than for all the gods,
Car l’Éternel est grand et très digne de louange, Il est redoutable par-dessus tous les dieux;
5 because all the gods that other people-groups [worship] are [only] idols, but Yahweh [is truly great]; he created the skies!
Car tous les dieux des peuples sont des idoles, Et l’Éternel a fait les cieux.
6 Those who are in his presence honor him and can see that he is a great king. They can see in his temple that he is very powerful and is very beautiful.
La splendeur et la magnificence sont devant sa face, La gloire et la majesté sont dans son sanctuaire.
7 You people in nations all over the earth, praise Yahweh! Praise Yahweh for his glorious power [HEN]!
Familles des peuples, rendez à l’Éternel, Rendez à l’Éternel gloire et honneur!
8 Praise Yahweh like he deserves to be praised, Bring an offering and come to his temple.
Rendez à l’Éternel gloire pour son nom! Apportez des offrandes, et entrez dans ses parvis!
9 Bow down before Yahweh [when he appears] in his holy/sacred temple; everyone on the earth should tremble in front of him, because he is majestic and holy.
Prosternez-vous devant l’Éternel avec des ornements sacrés. Tremblez devant lui, vous tous, habitants de la terre!
10 Say to all the people-groups, “Yahweh is the king! He put the world in its place, and nothing will ever be able to move/shake it. He will judge [all] the people-groups fairly.”
Dites parmi les nations: L’Éternel règne; Aussi le monde est ferme, il ne chancelle pas; L’Éternel juge les peuples avec droiture.
11 [All the beings that are in] [MTY] the heavens should be glad, and all [the people on the] earth should rejoice. The oceans and all the creatures that are in the oceans should roar [to praise Yahweh].
Que les cieux se réjouissent, et que la terre soit dans l’allégresse, Que la mer retentisse avec tout ce qu’elle contient,
12 The fields and everything that grows in them should rejoice. When they do that, [it will be as though] all the trees in the forests will sing joyfully
Que la campagne s’égaie avec tout ce qu’elle renferme, Que tous les arbres des forêts poussent des cris de joie,
13 in front of Yahweh. That will happen when he comes to judge [everyone on] [MTY] the earth. He will judge all the people fairly/justly, according to [what he knows is] true.
Devant l’Éternel! Car il vient, Car il vient pour juger la terre; Il jugera le monde avec justice, Et les peuples selon sa fidélité.
