| 1 | Woe to thee that spoilest, and thou wast not spoiled; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! when thou shalt cease to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; and when thou shalt make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee. | Malheur à toi qui fourrages, et qui n'as point été fourragé, et à toi, qui agis avec perfidie, et envers qui on n'a point usé de perfidie; sitôt que tu auras achevé de fourrager, tu seras fourragé; et sitôt que tu auras achevé d'agir avec perfidie, on te traitera avec perfidie. | Woe to thee that destroyest, and thou wast not destroyed; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! When thou hast ceased to destroy, thou shalt be destroyed; and when thou hast made an end of dealing treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee. |
| 2 | O LORD, be gracious unto us; we have waited for thee: be thou their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble. | Eternel aie pitié de nous; nous nous sommes attendus à toi; sois leur bras dès le matin, et notre délivrance au temps de la détresse. | O Jehovah, be gracious unto us; we have waited for thee: be thou our arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble. |
| 3 | At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered. | Les peuples se sont écartés à cause du son bruyant, les nations se sont dispersées à cause que tu t'es élevé. | At the noise of the tumult the peoples are fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations are scattered. |
| 4 | And your spoil shall be gathered like the gathering of the caterpiller: as the running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them. | Et votre butin sera ramassé comme l'on ramasse les vermisseaux, on sautera sur lui comme sautellent les sauterelles. | And your spoil shall be gathered as the caterpillar gathereth: as locusts leap shall men leap upon it. |
| 5 | The LORD is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness. | L'Eternel s'en va être exalté, car il habite en un lieu haut élevé; il remplira Sion de jugement et de justice. | Jehovah is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with justice and righteousness. |
| 6 | And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the LORD is his treasure. | Et la certitude de ta durée, et la force de tes délivrances sera la sagesse et la science; la crainte de l'Eternel sera son trésor. | And there shall be stability in thy times, abundance of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge: the fear of Jehovah is thy treasure. |
| 7 | Behold, their valiant ones shall cry without: the ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly. | Voici, leurs hérauts crient dehors, et les messagers de paix pleurent amèrement. | Behold, their valiant ones cry without; the ambassadors of peace weep bitterly. |
| 8 | The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth: he hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man. | Les chemins ont été réduits en désolation, les passants ne passent plus par les sentiers; il a rompu l'alliance, il a rejeté les villes, il ne fait pas même cas des hommes. | The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth: [the enemy] hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth not man. |
| 9 | The earth mourneth and languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed and hewn down: Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits. | On mène deuil; la terre languit, le Liban est sec et coupé; Saron est devenu comme une lande; et Basan et Carmel ont été ébranlés. | The land mourneth and languisheth; Lebanon is confounded and withereth away; Sharon is like a desert; and Bashan and Carmel shake off [their leaves]. |
| 10 | Now will I rise, saith the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself. | Maintenant je me lèverai, dira l'Eternel, maintenant je serai exalté, maintenant je serai élevé. | Now will I arise, saith Jehovah; now will I lift up myself; now will I be exalted. |
| 11 | Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath, as fire, shall devour you. | Vous concevrez de la balle, et vous enfanterez du chaume; votre souffle vous dévorera comme le feu. | Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath is a fire that shall devour you. |
| 12 | And the people shall be as the burnings of lime: as thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire. | Et les peuples seront comme des fourneaux de chaux; ils seront brûlés au feu comme des épines coupées. | And the peoples shall be as the burnings of lime, as thorns cut down, that are burned in the fire. |
| 13 | Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge my might. | Vous qui êtes loin, écoutez ce que j'ai fait; et vous qui êtes près, connaissez ma force. | Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge my might. |
| 14 | The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? | Les pécheurs seront effrayés dans Sion, et le tremblement saisira les hypocrites, tellement qu'ils diront; Qui est-ce d'entre nous qui pourra séjourner avec le feu dévorant? Qui est-ce d'entre nous qui pourra séjourner avec les ardeurs éternelles? | The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the godless ones: Who among us can dwell with the devouring fire? who among us can dwell with everlasting burnings? |
| 15 | He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil; | Celui qui observe la justice, et qui profère des choses droites; celui qui rejette le gain déshonnête d'extorsion, et qui secoue ses mains pour ne prendre point de présents; celui qui bouche ses oreilles pour n'ouïr point le sang, et qui ferme ses yeux pour ne voir point le mal; | He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from taking a bribe, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil: |
| 16 | He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure. | Celui-là habitera en des lieux haut élevés; des forteresses assises sur des rochers seront sa haute retraite; son pain lui sera donné, et ses eaux ne lui manqueront point. | He shall dwell on high; his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given [him]; his waters shall be sure. |
| 17 | Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off. | Tes yeux contempleront le Roi en sa beauté; et ils regarderont la terre éloignée. | Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold a land that reacheth afar. |
| 18 | Thine heart shall meditate terror. Where is the scribe? where is the receiver? where is he that counted the towers? | Ton coeur méditera-t-il la frayeur? en disant; où est le secrétaire? où est celui qui pèse? où est celui qui tient le compte des tours? | Thy heart shall muse on the terror: Where is he that counted, where is he that weighed [the tribute]? where is he that counted the towers? |
| 19 | Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, that thou canst not understand. | Tu ne verras point le peuple fier, peuple de langage inconnu, qu'on n'entend point; et de langue bégayante, qu'on ne comprend point. | Thou shalt not see the fierce people, a people of a deep speech that thou canst not comprehend, of a strange tongue that thou canst not understand. |
| 20 | Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be taken down; not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken. | Regarde Sion, la ville de nos fêtes solennelles, que tes yeux voient Jérusalem, séjour tranquille, tabernacle qui ne sera point transporté, et dont les pieux ne seront jamais ôtés, ni aucun de ses cordeaux ne sera rompu. | Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be plucked up, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken. |
| 21 | But there the glorious LORD will be unto us a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby. | Car c'est là vraiment que l'Eternel nous est magnifique; c'est le lieu des fleuves, et des rivières très larges, dans lequel n'ira point de navire à rame, et où aucun gros navire ne passera point. | But there Jehovah will be with us in majesty, a place of broad rivers and streams, wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby. |
| 22 | For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he will save us. | Parce que l'Eternel est notre Juge, l'Eternel est notre Législateur, l'Eternel est notre Roi; c'est lui qui vous sauvera. | For Jehovah is our judge, Jehovah is our lawgiver, Jehovah is our king; he will save us. |
| 23 | Thy tacklings are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey. | Tes cordages sont lâchés, et ainsi ils ne tiendront point ferme leur mât, et on n'étendra point la voile; alors la dépouille d'un grand butin sera partagée; les boiteux même pilleront le butin. | Thy tacklings are loosed; they could not strengthen the foot of their mast, they could not spread the sail: then was the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame took the prey. |
| 24 | And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity. | Et celui qui fera sa demeure dans la maison, ne dira point; je suis malade; le peuple qui habitera en elle, sera déchargé d'iniquité. | And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity. |
