Psalms 53

1 For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Mahalath.” A contemplation by David. The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity. There is no one who does good.

Načelniku godbe na piščal; pesem Davidova ukovita. Nespametni govori v srci svojem: Ni ga Boga; pohujšujejo in ostudno krivico doprinašajo, ni ga, da bi delal dobro.

2 God looks down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there are any who understood, who seek after God.

Bog z neba gleda dol na sinove človeške, da bi videl, je li kateri, da bi bil razumen, da bi iskal Boga.

3 Every one of them has gone back. They have become filthy together. There is no one who does good, no, not one.

Vsak je odstopil, izpridili so se vsi vkup: ni ga, da bi delal dobro, ne enega samega.

4 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and don’t call on God?

Ali si niso v svesti, kateri delajo krivico, ker žró ljudstvo moje kruh jedóč, ne kličejo Boga?

5 There they were in great fear, where no fear was, for God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you. You have put them to shame, because God has rejected them.

Tam se preplašijo od groze, kjer ni groze; ker Bog razsuje kosti vsakega, kateri ima šatorišče svoje zoper tebe; osramotiš jih, ker Bog jih zameta.

6 Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion! When God brings back his people from captivity, then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

O kdó naj dá blaginjo sè Sijona Izraelu? Ko bode nazaj peljal iz sužnjosti ljudstva svojega krdelo, veselil se bode Jakob, radoval se Izrael.
