Psalms 14

1 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.

۱ برای سالار مغنیان. مزمور داود احمق در دل خود می‌گوید که خدایی نیست. کارهای خود را فاسد و مکروه ساخته‌اند و نیکوکاری نیست.

2 The Lord looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any that understood, or sought after god.

۲ خداوند ازآسمان بربنی آدم نظر انداخت تا ببیند که آیا فهیم و طالب خدایی هست؟

3 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.

۳ همه روگردانیده، با هم فاسد شده‌اند. نیکوکاری نیست یکی هم نی.

4 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.

۴ آیا همه گناهکاران بی‌معرفت هستند که قوم مرا می‌خورند چنانکه نان می‌خورند؟ و خداوندرا نمی خوانند؟

5 There were they alarmed with fear, where there was no fear; for God is in the righteous generation.

۵ آنگاه ترس بر ایشان مستولی شد، زیرا خدادر طبقه عادلان است.

6 Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the Lord is his hope.

۶ مشورت مسکین را خجل می‌سازید چونکه خداوند ملجای اوست.

7 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.

۷ کاش که نجات اسرائیل از صهیون ظاهرمی شد! چون خداوند اسیری قوم خویش رابرگرداند، یعقوب وجد خواهد نمود و اسرائیل شادمان خواهد گردید.
