Livre des Psaumes 121

JERUSALEM	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Cantique pour les montées. Je lève les yeux vers les monts: d'où viendra mon secours?	1 A Canticle in steps. I rejoiced in the things that were said to me: “We shall go into the house of the Lord.”
2 Le secours me vient de Yahvé qui a fait le ciel et la terre.	2 Our feet were standing in your courts, O Jerusalem.
3 Qu'il ne laisse broncher ton pied! qu'il ne dorme, ton gardien!	3 Jerusalem has been built as a city, whose participation is unto itself.
4 Vois, il ne dort ni ne sommeille, le gardien d'Israël.	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.
5 Yahvé est ton gardien, ton ombrage, Yahvé, à ta droite.	5 For in that place, seats have sat down in judgment, seats above the house of David.
6 De jour, le soleil ne te frappe, ni la lune en la nuit.	6 Petition for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem, and for abundance for those who love you.
7 Yahvé te garde de tout mal, il garde ton âme.	7 Let peace be in your virtue, and abundance in your towers.
8 Yahvé te garde au départ, au retour, dès lors et à jamais.	8 For the sake of my brothers and my neighbors, I spoke peace about you.
	9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I sought good things for you.
