Psalms 14

1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David. The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They were corrupted, and they have become abominable in their studies. There is no one who does good; there is not even one.

Disse o néscio no seu coração: Não há Deus. Teem-se corrompido, fazem-se abomináveis em suas obras, não há ninguém que faça o bem.

2 The Lord has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any who were considering or seeking God.

O Senhor olhou desde os céus para os filhos dos homens, para ver se havia algum que tivesse entendimento e buscasse a Deus.

3 They have all gone astray; together they have become useless. There is no one who does good; there is not even one. Their throat is an open sepulcher. With their tongues, they have been acting deceitfully; the venom of asps is under their lips. Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness. Their feet are swift to shed blood. Grief and unhappiness are in their ways; and the way of peace, they have not known. There is no fear of God before their eyes.

Desviaram-se todos e juntamente se fizeram imundos: não há quem faça o bem, não há sequer um

4 Will they never learn: all those who work iniquity, who devour my people like a meal of bread?

Não terão conhecimento os que obram a iniquidade? os quais comem o meu povo, como se comessem pão, e não invocam ao Senhor.

5 They have not called upon the Lord. There, they have trembled in fear, where there was no fear.

Ali se acharam em grande pavor, porque Deus está na geração dos justos.

6 For the Lord is with the just generation. You have confounded the counsel of the needy because the Lord is his hope.

Vós envergonhais o conselho dos pobres, porquanto o Senhor é o seu refúgio.

7 Who will grant the salvation of Israel from Zion? When the Lord turns away the captivity of his people, Jacob will exult, and Israel will rejoice.

Oh, se de Sião tivera já vindo a redenção de Israel! quando o Senhor fizer voltar os cativos do seu povo, se regozijará Jacob e se alegrará Israel.
