< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 53 >

لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ عَلَى «ٱلْعُودِ». قَصِيدَةٌ لِدَاوُدَ قَالَ ٱلْجَاهِلُ فِي قَلْبِهِ: «لَيْسَ إِلَهٌ». فَسَدُوا وَرَجِسُوا رَجَاسَةً. لَيْسَ مَنْ يَعْمَلُ صَلَاحًا. ١ 1
For the leader. On mahalath. A maskil of David. Fools say in their heart, ‘There is no God.’ Vile, hateful their life is; not one does good.
ٱللهُ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ أَشْرَفَ عَلَى بَنِي ٱلْبَشَرِ لِيَنْظُرَ: هَلْ مِنْ فَاهِمٍ طَالِبِ ٱللهِ؟ ٢ 2
From heaven God looks out on humans, to see if any are wise, and care for God.
كُلُّهُمْ قَدِ ٱرْتَدُّوا مَعًا، فَسَدُوا. لَيْسَ مَنْ يَعْمَلُ صَلَاحًا، لَيْسَ وَلَا وَاحِدٌ. ٣ 3
But all have turned bad, the taint is on all; not one does good, no, not one.
أَلَمْ يَعْلَمْ فَاعِلُو ٱلْإِثْمِ، ٱلَّذِينَ يَأْكُلُونَ شَعْبِي كَمَا يَأْكُلُونَ ٱلْخُبْزَ، وَٱللهَ لَمْ يَدْعُوا؟ ٤ 4
Have they learned their lesson, those workers of evil? Who ate up my people, eating, devouring, never calling to the Lord.
هُنَاكَ خَافُوا خَوْفًا، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ خَوْفٌ، لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ قَدْ بَدَّدَ عِظَامَ مُحَاصِرِكَ. أَخْزَيْتَهُمْ لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ قَدْ رَفَضَهُمْ. ٥ 5
Sore afraid will they be, where no fear was; when God scatters the bones of the godless people. They will be put to shame, when God rejects them.
لَيْتَ مِنْ صِهْيَوْنَ خَلَاصَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. عِنْدَ رَدِّ ٱللهِ سَبْيَ شَعْبِهِ، يَهْتِفُ يَعْقُوبُ، وَيَفْرَحُ إِسْرَائِيلُ. ٦ 6
If only help from Zion would come for Israel! When God brings his people a change of fortune, how glad will be Jacob, and Israel how joyful!
