Psalms 121

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	Le Sainte Bible Vigouroux
1 A Canticle in steps. I rejoiced in the things that were said to me: “We shall go into the house of the Lord.”	1 J'ai élevé mes yeux vers les montagnes, d'où me viendra le secours.
2 Our feet were standing in your courts, O Jerusalem.	2 Mon secours vient du Seigneur, qui a fait le ciel et la terre.
3 Jerusalem has been built as a city, whose participation is unto itself.	3 Qu'il ne permette pas que ton pied chancelle (soit ébranlé), et que celui qui te garde ne s'endorme point.
4 For to that place, the tribes ascended, the tribes of the Lord: the testimony of Israel, to confess to the name of the Lord.	4 Non (Vois), il ne sommeille ni ne dort, celui qui garde Israël.
5 For in that place, seats have sat down in judgment, seats above the house of David.	5 Le Seigneur te garde, le Seigneur te protège, se tenant à ta droite.
6 Petition for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem, and for abundance for those who love you.	6 Pendant le jour le soleil ne te brûlera pas, ni la lune pendant la nuit.
7 Let peace be in your virtue, and abundance in your towers.	7 Le Seigneur te garde de tout mal ; que le Seigneur garde ton âme.
8 For the sake of my brothers and my neighbors, I spoke peace about you.	8 Que le Seigneur garde ton entrée et ta sortie, dès maintenant et à jamais.
9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I sought good things for you.
