Псалтирь 53

1 В конец, о Маелефе, разума Давиду. Рече безумен в сердцы своем: несть Бог. Растлеша и омерзишася в беззакониих, несть творяй благое.

For the end, [a Psalm] of David upon Maeleth, of instruction. The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They have corrupted [themselves], and become abominable in iniquities: there is none that does good.

2 Бог с небесе приниче на сыны человеческия, видети, аще есть разумеваяй или взыскаяй Бога.

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

3 Вси уклонишася, вкупе непотребни быша: несть творяй благое, несть до единаго.

They have all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that does good, there is not even one.

4 Ни ли уразумеют вси делающии беззаконие, снедающии люди моя в снедь хлеба? Господа не призваша.

Will none of the workers of iniquity know, who devour my people as they would eat bread? they have not called upon God. There were they greatly afraid, where there was no fear:

5 Тамо устрашишася страха, идеже не бе страх: яко Бог разсыпа кости человекоугодников: постыдешася, яко Бог уничижи их.

or God has scattered the bones of the men-pleasers; they were ashamed, for God despised them.

6 Кто даст от Сиона спасение Израилево? Внегда возвратит Бог пленение людий Своих, возрадуется Иаков и возвеселится Израиль.

Who will bring the salvation of Israel out of Sion? When the Lord turns the captivity of his people, Jacob shall exult, and Israel shall be glad.
