1 Cantique des degrés. Bienheureux quiconque craint l’ Éternel, [et] marche dans ses voies!

2 Car tu mangeras du travail de tes mains; tu seras bienheureux, et tu seras entouré de biens.

3 Ta femme sera au-dedans de ta maison comme une vigne féconde; tes fils seront comme des plants d’oliviers autour de ta table.

4 Voici, ainsi sera béni l’homme qui craint l’ Éternel.

5 L’ Éternel te bénira de Sion. Et puisses-tu voir le bien de Jérusalem tous les jours de ta vie,

6 Et voir des fils de tes fils! La paix soit sur Israël!
