Psalms 53

1 For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Mahalath.” A contemplation by David. The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity. There is no one who does good.

Al Vencedor: sobre Mahalat: Masquil de David. Dijo el loco en su corazón: No hay Dios. Se corrompieron e hicieron abominable maldad; no hay quien haga bien.

2 God looks down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there are any who understood, who seek after God.

Dios desde los cielos miró sobre los hijos de Adán, por ver si hay algún entendido que busque a Dios.

3 Every one of them has gone back. They have become filthy together. There is no one who does good, no, not one.

Cada uno se había vuelto atrás; todos se habían dañado; no hay quien haga bien, no hay ni aun uno.

4 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and don’t call on God?

¿No tienen conocimiento todos esos que obran iniquidad, que comen a mi pueblo como si comiesen pan? A Dios no invocan.

5 There they were in great fear, where no fear was, for God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you. You have put them to shame, because God has rejected them.

Allí se sobresaltaron de pavor donde no había pavor; porque Dios descoyuntó los huesos del que asentó campamento contra ti; los avergonzaste, porque Dios los desechó.

6 Oh that the salvation [yeshuat] of Israel would come out of Zion! When God brings back his people from captivity, then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

¡ Oh quién diese de Sion saludes a Israel! Volviendo Dios la cautividad de su pueblo, se gozará Jacob, y se alegrará Israel.
