詩篇 14

1 大衛的詩，交與伶長。 愚頑人心裏說：沒有上帝。 他們都是邪惡，行了可憎惡的事； 沒有一個人行善。

For the music director. A psalm of David. Only fools tell themselves, “God doesn't exist.” They are completely immoral; they commit terrible sins; not a single one of them does anything good.

2 耶和華從天上垂看世人， 要看有明白的沒有， 有尋求上帝的沒有。

The Lord watches from heaven to see whether anyone understands—if there's anyone who wants to come to God.

3 他們都偏離正路， 一同變為污穢； 並沒有行善的， 連一個也沒有。

They have all gone their own way, they are totally depraved; none of them does anything good, not even one.

4 作孽的都沒有知識嗎？ 他們吞吃我的百姓，如同吃飯一樣， 並不求告耶和華。

Won't these people who do evil ever learn? They consume my people as if they were eating bread, and refuse to pray to the Lord.

5 他們在那裏大大地害怕， 因為上帝在義人的族類中。

Look, they will become terrified, because God is with those who live right.

6 你們叫困苦人的謀算變為羞辱； 然而耶和華是他的避難所。

The wicked dismiss the plans of the poor people, but the Lord looks after them.

7 但願以色列的救恩從錫安而出。 耶和華救回他被擄的子民那時， 雅各要快樂，以色列要歡喜。

If only the Lord's salvation would come from Zion! When the Lord restores his people, the people of Jacob will celebrate, and the people of Israel will be glad.
