Psalms 99

1 The LORD reigns! Let the peoples tremble. He sits enthroned amongst the cherubim. Let the earth be moved.

Yahweh est roi: les peuples tremblent; il est assis sur les Chérubins; la terre chancelle.

2 The LORD is great in Zion. He is high above all the peoples.

Yahweh est grand dans Sion, il est élevé au dessus de tous les peuples.

3 Let them praise your great and awesome name. He is Holy!

Qu'on célèbre ton nom grand et redoutable! — Il est saint!

4 The King’s strength also loves justice. You establish equity. You execute justice and righteousness in Jacob.

Qu'on célèbre la puissance du Roi qui aime la justice! Tu affermis la droiture, tu exerces en Jacob la justice et l'équité.

5 Exalt the LORD our God. Worship at his footstool. He is Holy!

Exaltez Yahweh, notre Dieu, et prosternez-vous devant l'escabeau de ses pieds. — Il est saint!

6 Moses and Aaron were amongst his priests, Samuel was amongst those who call on his name. They called on the LORD, and he answered them.

Moïse et Aaron étaient parmi ses prêtres, et Samuel parmi ceux qui invoquaient son nom. Ils invoquaient Yahweh, et il les exauçait,

7 He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud. They kept his testimonies, the statute that he gave them.

il leur parlait dans la colonne de nuée. Ils observaient ses commandements, et la loi qu'il leur avait donnée.

8 You answered them, LORD our God. You are a God who forgave them, although you took vengeance for their doings.

Yahweh, notre Dieu, tu les exauças, tu fus pour eux un Dieu clément, et tu les punis de leurs fautes.

9 Exalt the LORD, our God. Worship at his holy hill, for the LORD, our God, is holy!

Exaltez Yahweh, notre Dieu, et prosternez-vous devant sa montagne sainte, car il est saint, Yahweh notre Dieu!
