Lyrics and translation Sir Hubert Parry - I Was Glad




I Was Glad
J'étais heureux
I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.
J'étais heureux lorsqu'ils m'ont dit: "Allons à la maison du Seigneur."
Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.
Nos pieds se tiendront à l'intérieur de tes portes, ô Jérusalem.
Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:
Jérusalem est construite comme une ville compacte:
Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the Lord.
les tribus montent, les tribus du Seigneur, pour le témoignage d'Israël, pour rendre grâce au nom du Seigneur.
For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.
Car sont établis des trônes de jugement, les trônes de la maison de David.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.
Priez pour la paix de Jérusalem: ceux qui t'aiment prospéreront.
Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.
Que la paix soit dans tes murs, et la prospérité dans tes palais.
For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.
Pour l'amour de mes frères et compagnons, je dirai maintenant: "Que la paix soit en toi."
Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek thy good.
A cause de la maison du Seigneur notre Dieu, je rechercherai ton bien.
