La beauté poético-musicale des psaumes au service de la théologie : le cas du Ps 85

This article deals with the poetic-musical beauty of the psalms with Psalm 85 as a paradigm. It essentially shows that the theological valence of the psalms largely depends on their poetic composition. The phenomenon of semantic, grammatical, lexical and sonorous parallelisms that is evident in these texts imposes a certain musicality, the content of which inspires and imprints in the mind of the informed reader a religious message that refers to the incomparable God. The poetic analysis of Psalm 85 which is made in this article sufficiently proves the inseparability of the two essential dimensions of the psalms, poetry and prayer.
