Livre des Psaumes 2

Bible de Jérusalem	Catholic Public Domain Bible
¹ Pourquoi ces nations qui remuent, ces peuples qui murmurent en vain?	¹ Why have the Gentiles been seething, and why have the people been pondering nonsense?
² Des rois de la terre s'insurgent, des princes conspirent contre Yahvé et contre son Messie:	² The kings of the earth have stood up, and the leaders have joined together as one, against the Lord and against his Christ:
³ "Faisons sauter leurs entraves, débarrassons-nous de leurs liens! "	³ “Let us shatter their chains and cast their yoke away from us.”
⁴ Celui qui siège dans les cieux s'en amuse, Yahvé les tourne en dérision.	⁴ He who dwells in heaven will ridicule them, and the Lord will mock them.
⁵ Puis dans sa colère il leur parle, dans sa fureur il les épouvante:	⁵ Then will he speak to them in his anger and trouble them with his fury.
⁶ "C'est moi qui ai sacré mon roi sur Sion, ma montagne sainte."	⁶ Yet I have been appointed king by him over Zion, his holy mountain, preaching his precepts.
⁷ J'énoncerai le décret de Yahvé: Il m'a dit: "Tu es mon fils, moi, aujourd'hui, je t'ai engendré.	⁷ The Lord has said to me: You are my son, this day have I begotten you.
⁸ Demande, et je te donne les nations pour héritage, pour domaine les extrémités de la terre;	⁸ Ask of me and I will give to you: the Gentiles for your inheritance, and the ends of the earth for your possession.
⁹ tu les briseras avec un sceptre de fer, comme vases de potier tu les casseras."	⁹ You will rule them with an iron rod, and you will shatter them like a potter’s vessel.
¹⁰ Et maintenant, rois, comprenez, corrigez-vous, juges de la terre!	¹⁰ And now, O kings, understand. Receive instruction, you who judge the earth.
¹¹ Servez Yahvé avec crainte,	¹¹ Serve the Lord in fear, and exult in him with trembling.
¹² baisez ses pieds avec tremblement; qu'il se fâche, vous vous perdez en chemin: d'un coup flambe sacolère. Heureux qui s'abrite en lui!	¹² Embrace discipline, lest at any time the Lord might become angry, and you would perish from the way of the just.
	¹³ Though his wrath can flare up in a short time, blessed are all those who trust in him.
