Psalms 14

1 For the chief musician. A psalm of David. A fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt and have done abominable iniquity; there is no one who does good.

Ki he Takimuʻa, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. Kuo pehē ʻe he vale ʻi hono loto, “ʻOku ʻikai ha ʻOtua.” Kuo kovi ʻakinautolu, kuo nau fai ʻae ngaahi ngāue fakalielia, ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku fai lelei.

2 Yahweh looks down from heaven on the children of mankind to see if there are any who understand, who seek after him.

Naʻe ʻafio hifo ʻe Sihova mei he langi ki he fānau ʻae tangata, ke ʻafio pē ʻoku ai ha niʻihi ʻoku ʻilo, mo kumi ki he ʻOtua.

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

Kuo ʻalu hē kotoa pē, kuo nau hoko ʻo fakalielia kotoa pē: ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku fai lelei, ʻoku ʻikai ʻaupito ha taha.

4 Do they not know anything, those who commit iniquity, those who eat up my people as they eat bread, but who do not call on Yahweh?

“ʻOku ʻikai ha ʻilo ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku fai kovi? ʻAkinautolu ʻoku kai ʻo ʻosi hoku kakai ʻo hangē ko ʻenau kai mā, pea ʻoku ʻikai te nau ui kia Sihova.”

5 They tremble with dread, for God is with the righteous assembly!

Pea naʻa nau manavahē ai ʻi he manavahē lahi: he ʻoku ʻi he toʻutangata ʻoe māʻoniʻoni ʻae ʻOtua.

6 You want to humiliate the poor person even though Yahweh is his refuge.

Naʻa mou manukiʻi ʻae fakakaukau ʻoe masiva, ka ko hono hūfanga ʻa Sihova.

7 Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come from Zion! When Yahweh brings back his people from the captivity, then Jacob will rejoice and Israel will be glad!

Ko hai te ne foaki mei Saione ʻae fakamoʻui ki ʻIsileli? ʻOka toe ʻomi ʻe Sihova hono kakai kuo pōpula, ʻe fiefia ai ʻa Sēkope, pea nekeneka ʻa ʻIsileli.
