| 2 | It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, and the excellency of our God. | il se couvrira de fleurs et tressaillira, il poussera des cris de joie. La gloire du Liban lui sera donnée, avec la magnificence du Carmel et de Saron. Ils verront la gloire de Yahweh, la magnificence de notre Dieu! | It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing; the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon: they shall see the glory of Jehovah, the excellency of our God. |
| 3 | Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees. | Fortifiez les mains défaillantes, et affermissez les genoux qui chancellent ! | Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees. |
| 4 | Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you. | Dites à ceux qui ont le coeur troublé; "Prenez courage, ne craignez point : Voici votre Dieu; la vengeance vient, une revanche divine, il vient lui-même et vous sauvera." | Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come [with] vengeance, [with] the recompense of God; he will come and save you. |
| 5 | Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. | Alors s'ouvriront les yeux des aveugles, alors s'ouvriront les oreilles des sourds. | Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. |
| 6 | Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert. | Le boiteux bondira comme un cerf, et la langue du muet éclatera de joie. Car des eaux jailliront dans le désert, et des ruisseaux dans le steppe, | Then shall the lame man leap as a hart, and the tongue of the dumb shall sing; for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert. |
| 7 | And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes. | Le sol brûlé se changera en un lac, et la terre altérée en sources d'eaux ; le repaire où gîtaient les chacals deviendra un parc de roseaux et de joncs. | And the glowing sand shall become a pool, and the thirsty ground springs of water: in the habitation of jackals, where they lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes. |
| 8 | And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein. | Il y aura là une route, une voie, qu'on appellera la voie sainte; nul impur n'y passera ; elle n'est que pour eux seuls ; Ceux qui la suivront, les simples mêmes, ne s'égareront pas. | And a highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but is shall be for [the redeemed]: the wayfaring men, yea fools, shall not err [therein]. |
| 9 | No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there: | Là il n'y aura point de lion; aucune bête féroce n'y mettra le pied; on ne l'y trouvera pas. Les délivrés y marcheront, | No lion shall be there, nor shall any ravenous beast go up thereon; they shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk [there]: |
| 10 | And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away. | et les rachetés de Yahweh reviendront ; ils viendront en Sion avec des cris de joie ; une allégresse éternelle couronnera leur tête ; la joie et l'allégresse les envahiront, la douleur et le gémissement s'enfuiront. | and the ransomed of Jehovah shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads: they shall obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away. |
