| 1 | O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth. | Éternel, tu es mon Dieu! Je t'exalterai, je célébrerai ton nom; car tu as fait des choses merveilleuses. Tes desseins formés dès longtemps sont sûrs et fidèles. | O Jehovah, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things, [even] counsels of old, in faithfulness [and] truth. |
| 2 | For thou hast made of a city an heap; of a defenced city a ruin: a palace of strangers to be no city; it shall never be built. | Car tu as réduit la ville en monceau de pierres, et la cité forte en ruines; la citadelle des étrangers n'est plus une ville; elle ne sera plus jamais rebâtie. | For thou hast made of a city a heap, of a fortified city a ruin, a palace of strangers to be no city; it shall never be built. |
| 3 | Therefore shall the strong people glorify thee, the city of the terrible nations shall fear thee. | C'est pourquoi les peuples puissants te glorifieront; les cités des nations redoutables te craindront. | Therefore shall a strong people glorify thee; a city of terrible nations shall fear thee. |
| 4 | For thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall. | Car tu as été le refuge du faible, le refuge du pauvre en sa détresse, un abri contre la tempête, un ombrage contre le hâle, quand le souffle des puissants était comme la tempête qui frappe une muraille. | For thou hast been a stronghold to the poor, a stronghold to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shade from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall. |
| 5 | Thou shalt bring down the noise of strangers, as the heat in a dry place; even the heat with the shadow of a cloud: the branch of the terrible ones shall be brought low. | Tu abats le tumulte des étrangers, comme tombe le hâle dans une terre aride; comme le hâle sous l'ombre d'un nuage, le chant des puissants est rabaissé. | As the heat in a dry place wilt thou bring down the noise of strangers; as the heat by the shade of a cloud, the song of the terrible ones shall be brought low. |
| 6 | And in this mountain shall the LORD of hosts make unto all people a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined. | Et l'Éternel des armées fera pour tous les peuples, sur cette montagne, un banquet de viandes grasses, un banquet de vins conservés, de viandes grasses et moelleuses, de vins conservés et clarifiés. | And in this mountain will Jehovah of hosts make unto all peoples a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined. |
| 7 | And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the vail that is spread over all nations. | Et il enlèvera, sur cette montagne, le voile qui couvre la face de tous les peuples, la couverture étendue sur toutes les nations. | And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering that covereth all peoples, and the veil that is spread over all nations. |
| 8 | He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it. | Il détruira la mort pour jamais; le Seigneur, l'Éternel, essuiera les larmes de tous les visages, et fera disparaître de toute la terre l'opprobre de son peuple; car l'Éternel a parlé. | He hath swallowed up death for ever; and the Lord Jehovah will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the reproach of his people will he take away from off all the earth: for Jehovah hath spoken it. |
| 9 | And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation. | Et l'on dira, en ce jour-là: Voici, il est notre Dieu; nous avons espéré en lui, et il nous sauve. C'est l'Éternel; nous avons espéré en lui: égayons-nous, et nous réjouissons de son salut! | And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is Jehovah; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation. |
| 10 | For in this mountain shall the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down under him, even as straw is trodden down for the dunghill. | Car la main de l'Éternel reposera sur cette montagne; mais Moab sera foulé sur place, comme on foule la paille dans les eaux du fumier. | For in this mountain will the hand of Jehovah rest; and Moab shall be trodden down in his place, even as straw is trodden down in the water of the dung-hill. |
| 11 | And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst of them, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim: and he shall bring down their pride together with the spoils of their hands. | Là il étendra les mains, comme le nageur les étend pour nager; mais l'Éternel abaissera son orgueil et tout l'effort de ses bras. | And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth [his hands] to swim; but [Jehovah] will lay low his pride together with the craft of his hands. |
| 12 | And the fortress of the high fort of thy walls shall he bring down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust. | Et l'Éternel abattra le rempart élevé de tes murailles; il l'abaissera, il le jettera à terre et dans la poussière. | And the high fortress of thy walls hath he brought down, laid low, and brought to the ground, even to the dust. |
