Chapter 112

Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.

Louez l`Éternel! Heureux l`homme qui craint l`Éternel, Qui trouve un grand plaisir à ses commandements.

His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

Sa postérité sera puissante sur la terre, La génération des hommes droits sera bénie.

Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

Il a dans sa maison bien-être et richesse, Et sa justice subsiste à jamais.

Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

La lumière se lève dans les ténèbres pour les hommes droits, Pour celui qui est miséricordieux, compatissant et juste.

A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion.

Heureux l`homme qui exerce la miséricorde et qui prête. Qui règle ses actions d`après la justice.

Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

Car il ne chancelle jamais; La mémoire du juste dure toujours.

He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.

Il ne craint point les mauvaises nouvelles; Son coeur est ferme, confiant en l`Éternel.

His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies.

Son coeur est affermi; il n`a point de crainte, Jusqu`à ce qu`il mette son plaisir à regarder ses adversaires.

He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.

Il fait des largesses, il donne aux indigents; Sa justice subsiste à jamais; Sa tête s`élève avec gloire,

The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.

Le méchant le voit et s`irrite, Il grince les dents et se consume; Les désirs des méchants périssent.
