JERUSALEM	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Du maître de chant. Psaume de David.	1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David.
2 Qu'il te réponde, Yahvé, au jour d'angoisse, qu'il te protège, le nom du Dieu de Jacob!	2 In your virtue, Lord, the king will rejoice, and over your salvation, he will exult exceedingly.
3 Qu'il t'envoie du sanctuaire un secours et de Sion qu'il te soutienne!	3 You have granted him the desire of his heart, and you have not cheated him of the wish of his lips.
4 Qu'il se rappelle toutes tes offrandes, ton holocauste, qu'il le trouve savoureux!	4 For you have gone ahead of him with blessings of sweetness. You have placed a crown of precious stones on his head.
5 Qu'il te donne selon ton coeur et tous tes desseins, qu'il les seconde!	5 He petitioned you for life, and you have granted him length of days, in the present time, and forever and ever.
6 Que nous criions de joie en ton salut, qu'au nom de notre Dieu nous pavoisions! Que Yahvéaccomplisse toutes tes requêtes!	6 Great is his glory in your salvation. Glory and great adornment, you will lay upon him.
7 Maintenant je connais que Yahvé donne le salut à son messie, des cieux de sainteté il lui répondrapar les gestes sauveurs de sa droite.	7 For you will give him as a blessing forever and ever. You will make him rejoice with gladness in your presence.
8 Aux uns les chars, aux autres les chevaux, à nous d'invoquer le nom de Yahvé notre Dieu.	8 Because the king hopes in the Lord, and in the mercy of the Most High, he will not be disturbed.
9 Eux, ils plient, ils tombent, nous, debout, nous tenons.	9 May your hand be found by all your enemies. May your right hand discover all those who hate you.
10 Yahvé, sauve le roi, réponds-nous au jour de notre appel.	10 You will make them like an oven of fire, in the time of your presence. The Lord will stir them up with his wrath, and fire will devour them.
	11 You will destroy their fruit from the earth and their offspring from the sons of men.
	12 For they have turned evils upon you; they have devised plans, which they have not been able to accomplish.
	13 For you will make them turn their back; with your remnants, you will prepare their countenance.
	14 Be exalted, Lord, by your own power. We will play music and sing psalms to your virtues.
