Salmos 53

1 Al Músico principal: sobre Mahalath: Masquil de David. DIJO el necio en su corazón: No hay Dios. Corrompiéronse é hicieron abominable maldad: no hay quien haga bien.

Unto the end. For Mahalath: the thoughts of David. The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They were corrupted, and they became abominable with iniquities. There is no one who does good.

2 Dios desde los cielos miró sobre los hijos de los hombres, por ver si hay algún entendido que busque á Dios.

God gazed down from heaven on the sons of men, to see if there were any who were considering or seeking God.

3 Cada uno se había vuelto atrás; todos se habían corrompido: no hay quien haga bien, no hay ni aun uno.

All have gone astray; together they have become useless. There is no one who does good; there is not even one.

4 ¿No tienen conocimiento todos esos que obran iniquidad? que comen á mi pueblo [como si] comiesen pan: á Dios no han invocado.

Will they never learn: all those who work iniquity, who devour my people like a meal of bread?

5 Allí se sobresaltaron de pavor donde no había miedo: porque Dios ha esparcido los huesos del que asentó campo contra ti: los avergonzaste, porque Dios los desechó.

They have not called upon God. In that place, they have trembled in fear, where there was no fear. For God has scattered the bones of those who please men. They have been confounded, because God has spurned them.

6 ¡Oh quién diese de Sión saludes á Israel! En volviendo Dios la cautividad de su pueblo, gozarse ha Jacob, y alegraráse Israel.

Who will grant from Zion the salvation of Israel? Jacob will exult, when God will convert the captivity of his people; and Israel will rejoice.
