Psalms 53
1 [Only] foolish people say to themselves, “There is no God!” People who say that are corrupt; they commit terrible sins; there is not one of them who does what is good/right.
Pou chèf sanba yo. Fè yo chante ansanm, tankou timoun lekòl. Se yon sòm David. Moun fou di nan kè yo: -Pa gen Bondye! Yo tout fin pouri. Y'ap fè yon bann mechanste. Pa gen yonn ki fè sa ki byen.
2 God looks down from heaven and sees humans; he looks to see if anyone is [very] wise, with the result that he seeks [to know] God.
Bondye rete nan syèl la, l'ap gade lèzòm anba, pou l' wè si gen ladan yo ki gen konprann, si gen ladan yo k'ap chache l'.
3 [But] they are all morally corrupt; no one does what is good/right.
Men, yo tout vire do bay Bondye. Yo tout yo mete tèt ansanm pou fè sa ki mal. Pa gen yonn ladan yo k'ap fè sa ki byen, non, pa menm gen yon sèl ladan yo.
4 Will all these evil people never learn [what God will do to them]? They act violently toward Yahweh’s people while eating the food that he provides, and they never pray to Yahweh.
Bondye di: -Moun sa yo k'ap fè mechanste, se konnen yo pa konnen? Yo rete, y'ap souse pèp mwen an pou yo ka viv. Pa gen yonn ladan yo ki rele non mwen.
5 But [some day] those people will become terrified, like they have never been terrified before, because God will cause those who are separated from him to die, and he will [disrespect them by] scattering their bones. They have rejected God, so he will cause them to be [defeated and] completely disgraced.
Men tou, yo pral sezi, yo pral tranble, san pa gen rezon pou yo tranble. Men Bondye pral gaye zo tout lènmi ou yo, w'ap fè yo wont, paske Bondye lage yo.
6 I wish/desire that someone from Jerusalem [MTY] would come and rescue the Israeli [people]! God, when you bless your people again, [all] the Israeli [people, all the descendants of] Jacob, will rejoice.
Oo! Kilè Bondye va soti sou mòn Siyon an pou l' delivre pèp Izrayèl li a? Lè Bondye va fè pèp li a kanpe ankò, pitit pitit Jakòb yo pral fè fèt. Se vre wi, pèp Izrayèl la pral kontan.
