Perfection des œuvres de Dieu
111 Louez l’Eternel!
Je louerai l’Eternel de tout mon cœur,
Dans la réunion des hommes droits et dans l’assemblée.
2 Les œuvres de l’Eternel sont grandes,
Recherchées par tous ceux qui les aiment.
3 Son œuvre n’est que splendeur et magnificence,
Et sa justice subsiste à jamais.
4 Il a laissé la mémoire de ses prodiges,
L’Eternel est miséricordieux et compatissant.
5 Il a donné de la nourriture à ceux qui le craignent;
Il se souvient toujours de son alliance.
6 Il a manifesté à son peuple la puissance de ses œuvres,
En lui livrant l’héritage des nations.
7 Les œuvres de ses mains sont fidélité et justice;
Toutes ses ordonnances sont véritables,
8 Affermies pour l’éternité,
Faites avec fidélité et droiture.
9 Il a envoyé la délivrance à son peuple,
Il a établi pour toujours son alliance;
Son nom est saint et redoutable.
10 La crainte de l’Eternel est le commencement de la sagesse;
Tous ceux qui l’observent ont une raison saine.
Sa gloire subsiste à jamais.
