Ecclésiaste (Siracide) 44, 1-15

Louons maintenant les grands hommes,
les pères de nos origines…

Le Maître a créé tant de gloire,
pour sa grandeur depuis toujours !
Des chefs qui tiennent leur royaume,
des hommes fameux pour leur force,
des conseillers pleins de finesse,
des prophètes pleins d'éloquence,
des guides prudents pour le peuple,
une éducation raffinée,
de sage dictons pour l'instruire,
des inventeurs de mélodies
et des narrateurs d’épopées,
des riches débordant de force,
vivant en paix dans leur domaine.

À l'époque on les a chantés,
de leur vivant on était fier.
Quelques-uns ont laissé un nom
qui leur vaut encore des éloges.

On n'a pas souvenir des autres
comme s'ils n'avaient pas été
pas plus que leurs enfants ensuite,

mais les hommes de compassion,
leur justice est inoubliable !

Elle accompagne leur lignée,
fait la joie de leurs héritiers.
Leur lignée entre dans l'alliance
et leurs petits-enfants, grâce à eux,
leur lignée demeure à jamais.
Rien ne peut effacer leur gloire.

Leur corps est inhumé en paix,
leur nom se transmet d'âge en âge,
les peuples citent leur sagesse,
les assemblées font leur éloge.

Ecclesiasticus (Sirach) 44, 1-15

Let us now praise famous men,
and our fathers that begat us.

The Lord hath wrought great glory
by them through his great power from the beginning.
Such as did bear rule in their kingdoms,
men renowned for their power,
giving counsel by their understanding,
and declaring prophecies:
Leaders of the people by their counsels,
and by their knowledge of learning meet for the people,
wise and eloquent are their instructions:
Such as found out musical tunes,
and recited verses in writing:
Rich men furnished with ability,
living peaceably in their habitations:

All these were honoured in their generations,
and were the glory of their times.
There be of them, that have left a name behind them,
that their praises might be reported.

And some there be, which have no memorial;
who are perished, as though they had never been;
and are become as though they had never been born;
and their children after them.
But these were merciful men,
whose righteousness hath not been forgotten.

With their seed shall continually remain
a good inheritance,
and their children are within the covenant.
Their seed standeth fast, and their children for their sakes.
Their seed shall remain for ever,
and their glory shall not be blotted out.

Their bodies are buried in peace;
but their name liveth for evermore.
The people will tell of their wisdom,
and the congregation will shew forth their praise.
