La Bible Ostervald (1996)
Tous les enfants d'Israël virent descendre le feu et la gloire de l'Éternel sur la maison; et ils se courbèrent, le visage en terre, sur le pavé, se prosternèrent, et louèrent l'Éternel, en disant: Car il est bon, car sa miséricorde demeure éternellement!
Darby's French Translation
Et tous les fils d'Israël, voyant descendre le feu, et la gloire de l'Éternel sur la maison, s'inclinèrent le visage en terre sur le pavement, et se prosternèrent, et célébrèrent l'Éternel: Car il est bon, car sa bonté demeure à toujours!
La Bible David Martin (1744)
Et tous les enfants d'Israël voyant comment le feu descendait, et comment la gloire de l'Eternel était sur la maison, se courbèrent le visage en terre sur le pavé, et se prosternèrent, et célébrèrent l'Eternel, [en disant] : Ô! qu'il est bon, parce que sa gratuité demeure éternellement.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And when all the children of Israel saw how the fire came down,.... From heaven upon the sacrifice, and consumed it, which was all visible to the eye; or it may be this was a distinct fire from the former, since it seems to have come down upon the house, and so may denote a bright, shining, glorious light; the same with what follows:

and the glory of the Lord upon the house; for not only the house was filled with the glory, but there was a bright stream of light and glory over it, very dazzling and surprising:

they bowed themselves with their faces to the ground upon the pavement; of the great court, where they were assembled:

and worshipped and praised the Lord: worshipped him by praising him:

saying, for he is good; in his nature, promises, and blessings; is good, and does good:

for his mercy endureth for ever; this was the close of their song of praise.
