Psalms 14

1 [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.

Bedak je rekel v svojem srcu: »Ni Boga.« Izprijeni so, počeli so gnusna dela, nikogar ni, ki dela dobro.

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

Gospod je pogledal dol z neba na človeške otroke, da vidi, ali obstaja kdorkoli, ki je razumel in išče Boga.

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

Vsi so odšli vstran, vsi skupaj so postali pokvarjeni. Nikogar ni, ki dela dobro, ne, niti enega ni.

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

Mar vsi delavci krivičnosti nimajo spoznanja? Ki žro moje ljudstvo, kakor jedo kruh, pa ne kličejo h Gospodu?

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

Bili so v velikem strahu, kajti Bog je z rodom pravičnih.

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

Sramotili ste nasvet siromašnega, zato ker je Gospod njegovo pribežališče.

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

Oh, da bi Izraelova rešitev duš prišla iz Siona! Ko Gospod privede nazaj ujete svojega ljudstva, se bo Jakob veselil in Izrael bo vesel.
