< Psalms 53 >

1 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.
Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Namaimbirwo eMaharati. Rwiyo rweMasikiri rwaDhavhidhi. Benzi rinoti mumwoyo maro, “Mwari hakuna.” Vakaora, uye nzira dzavo dzakaipa; hakuna anoita zvakanaka.
2 God looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any that understood, or sought after God.
Mwari anotarira ari kudenga, pavanakomana vavanhu, kuti aone kana aripo anonzwisisa, kana aripo anotsvaka Mwari.
3 They have all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that does good, there is not even one.
Mumwe nomumwe wavo akadzokera shure, vakava vakaora pamwe chete; hakuna anoita zvakanaka, kunyange nomumwe.
4 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:
Ko, vaiti vezvakaipa havangadzidzi here, vaya vanodya vanhu vangu savanhu vanodya chingwa, uye vasingadani kuna Mwari?
5 or God has scattered the bones of the men-pleasers; they were ashamed, for God despised them.
Havo, vakazadzwa nokutya, ipo pasina chavangatya. Mwari akaparadzira mapfupa avanhu vaikurwisa; makavanyadzisa, nokuti Mwari akavazvidza.
6 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.
Haiwa, dai ruponeso rwaIsraeri rwabuda kubva muZioni; Mwari paachadzosera nhaka yavanhu vake; Jakobho ngaafarisise uye Israeri ngaafarisise!
