Psalms 53

1 To the chief music-maker; put to Mahalath. Maschil. Of David. The foolish man has said in his heart, God will not do anything. They are unclean, they have done evil works; there is not one who does good.

Dāvida mācības dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim ar stabulēm. Ģeķis saka savā sirdī: Dieva nav. Tie samaitājās un sagānās ar netaisnību, nav neviena, kas labu dara.

2 God was looking down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there were any who had wisdom, searching after God.

Dievs skatās no debesīm uz cilvēku bērniem, redzēt, vai jel kas esot prātīgs, kas Dievu meklē.

3 Every one of them has gone back; they are unclean: there is not one who does good, no, not one.

Bet tie visi atkāpušies, tie kopā samaitājušies; nav, kas labu dara, it neviena.

4 Have the workers of evil no knowledge? they take my people for food, as they would take bread; they make no prayer to God.

Vai tad to neatzīst tie ļauna darītāji, kas manus ļaudis ēd, kā ēd maizi, bet Dievu tie nepiesauc.

5 They were in great fear, where there was no cause for fear: for the bones of those who make war on you have been broken by God; you have put them to shame, because God has no desire for them.

Tad tiem uzkrita bailes, kur bailes nebija; jo Dievs izklīdināja tavu spaidītāju kaulus; Tu tos liki kaunā, jo Dievs tos bija atmetis.

6 May the salvation of Israel come out of Zion! When the fate of his people is changed by God, Jacob will have joy, and Israel will be glad.

Ak, kaut Israēla pestīšana nāktu no Ciānas! Kad Dievs novērsīs Savu ļaužu cietumu, tad Jēkabs priecāsies un Israēls līksmosies.
