who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; who keeps truth forever;

7 Il rend justice aux opprimés, il donne la nourriture à ceux qui ont faim. Yahweh délivre les captifs,

who executes mishpat ·justice· for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry. Adonai frees the prisoners.

8 Yahweh ouvre les yeux des aveugles, Yahweh relève ceux qui sont courbés, Yahweh aime les justes.

Adonai opens the eyes of the blind. Adonai raises up those who are bowed down. Adonai 'ahav ·affectionately loves· the upright.

Adonai preserves the foreigners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, but the way of the wicked he turns upside down.

Adonai will reign forever; your God, O Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking], to all generations. Halleluyah ·praise Yah·!
