< Žalmy 14 >

1 Přednímu zpěváku, píseň Davidova. Říká blázen v srdci svém: Není Boha. Porušeni jsou, a ohavní v snažnostech; není, kdo by činil dobré.
For the end, Psalm of David. The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They have corrupted [themselves], and become abominable in their devices; there is none that does goodness, there is not even so much as one.
2 Hospodin s nebe popatřil na syny lidské, aby viděl, byl-li by kdo rozumný a hledající Boha.
The Lord looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any that understood, or sought after god.
3 Všickni se odvrátili, napořád neužiteční učiněni jsou; není, kdo by činil dobré, není ani jednoho.
They are all gone out of the way, they are together become good for nothing, there is none that does good, no not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness; their feet are swift to shed blood: destruction and misery are in their ways; and the way of peace they have not known: there is no fear of God before their eyes.
4 Zdaliž nevědí všickni činitelé nepravosti, že zžírají lid můj, jako by chléb jedli? Hospodina pak nevzývají.
Will not all the workers of iniquity know, who eat up my people as they would eat bread? they have not called upon the Lord.
5 Tehdáž se náramně strašiti budou; nebo Bůh jest v rodině spravedlivého.
There were they alarmed with fear, where there was no fear; for God is in the righteous generation.
6 Radu chudého potupujete, ale Hospodin jest naděje jeho.
You have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the Lord is his hope.
7 Ó by z Siona dáno bylo spasení Izraelovi. Když Hospodin zase přivede zajaté lidu svého, plésati bude Jákob, a veseliti se Izrael.
Who will bring the salvation of Israel out of Sion? when the Lord brings back the captivity of his people, let Jacob exult, and Israel be glad.
