Psalmi 14

1 Dāvida dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim. Ģeķi saka savā sirdī Dieva nav; tie ir samaitājušies un sagānījušies ar savu darbošanos, neviena nav, kas labu dara.

[For the Chief Musician. By David.] The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt. They do abominable works. There is none who does good.

2 Tas Kungs skatās no debesīm uz cilvēku bērniem, raudzīt, vai jel kas būtu prātīgs, kas meklē Dievu.

YHWH looks down from heaven on the descendants of Adam, to see if there are any who are wise, who seek after God.

3 Bet tie visi atkāpušies, visnotaļ smirdoši tapuši, neviena nav, kas labu dara, nav it neviena.

They have all turned away. They have together become corrupt. There is no one who does good, no, not one.

4 Vai tad nav nekādas atzīšanas tiem ļauna darītājiem, kas ēd manus ļaudis, tā kā ēd maizi, bet To Kungu tie nepiesauc?

Have all evildoers no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread? They do not call on YHWH.

5 Tad tie bīdamies izbīstas, jo Dievs ir pie tās taisnās cilts.

There they are utterly terrified, for God is in the generation of the righteous.

6 Jūs nievājat nabaga padomu, bet Tas Kungs ir viņa patvērums.

You would frustrate the plans of the lowly, but YHWH is his refuge.

7 Ak! Kaut no Ciānas nāktu Israēla pestīšana! Kad Tas Kungs atkal atved Savus cietuma ļaudis, tad Jēkabs priecāsies un Israēls līksmosies.

Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion. When YHWH restores the fortunes of his people, may Jacob rejoice, may Israel be glad.
