3 Seigneur, je te rendrai gloire parmi les peuples; je te chanterai des psaumes parmi les Gentils.
[I prayed], “Yahweh, I will thank you among [all] the people-groups; I will sing to praise you among the nations,
4 Car ta miséricorde est plus grande que les cieux; et ta vérité va jusqu'aux nues.
because your faithful love for us reaches up to the heavens, and your faithfully doing what you promise [is as great as the distance] up to the clouds.
5 Dieu, sois exalté au-dessus des cieux; que ta gloire soit répandue sur toute la terre!
Yahweh, [show] in the heavens that you are very great! And [show] your glory [to people] all over the earth!

Answer our [prayers] and by your power help us [MTY] [to defeat our enemies] in order that we, the people whom you love, may be saved/rescued.”
7 Dieu a parlé dans son sanctuaire; je me réjouirai, et je partagerai Sichem, et je mesurerai le val des Tabernacles.
And [Yahweh answered our prayers and] spoke from his temple, saying, “Because I have conquered [your enemies], I will joyfully [everything in] [city] and I will distribute among my people [the valuable things] in Succoth Valley.
8 A moi est Galaad, à moi Manassé; Ephraïm est l'appui de ma tête; Juda est mon roi,
The Gilead [region] is mine; the [people of the tribe of] Manasseh are mine; [the tribe of] Ephraim is [like] my war helmet, and [the tribe of Judah] is like the (scepter/stick that I hold which shows that I am the ruler) [MET];
9 Et Moab le vase de mon espérance. Je poserai ma sandale sur l'Idumée, les étrangers me sont soumis.
the Moab [region] is [like] my washbasin [MET]; I throw my sandal in the Edom [area to show that it belongs to me]; I shout triumphantly because I have defeated [the people of] the Philistia [area].”
10 Qui me ramènera dans la ville forte? Qui me guidera jusqu'à la terre d'Édom?
[Because we want to attack the people of] Edom, (who will lead my [army triumphantly] to their [capital] city that has strong walls around it?/I want someone to lead my [army triumphantly] to their [capital] city that has strong walls around it.) [RHQ]
11 N'est-ce pas toi, ô Dieu, qui nous avais repoussés; ô Dieu, toi qui ne sortais plus à la tête de nos armées?
God, we [hope that] [RHQ] you have not abandoned us, and that you will go with us when our army marches out [to fight our enemies].
12 Donne-nous ton secours pour nous tirer de la tribulation; car il est vain, le salut qui vient de l'homme.
[We need you to] help us when we fight against our enemies, because the help that humans can give us is worthless.
13 En Dieu nous mettons notre force, et lui-même réduira à néant nos ennemis.
[But] with you [helping us], we shall win; you will [enable us to] defeat our enemies.
