< 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。
[Only] foolish people say to themselves, “There is no God!” People who say those things are corrupt/worthless; they do abominable/detestable deeds; there is not one [of them] who does what is good/right.
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。
Yahweh looks down from heaven and sees humans; he looks to see if anyone is very wise, with the result that he desires [to know] 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。
But they are all corrupt/evil; no one does what is good/right.
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。
Will those evil people never learn [what God will do to punish them] [RHQ]? They act violently toward Yahweh’s people while eating the food that he provides, and they never pray to Yahweh.
5 他們在那裏大大地害怕, 因為上帝在義人的族類中。
But [some day] they will become very terrified because God helps those who act righteously [and will punish those who reject him].
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。
Those who do evil may prevent helpless people from doing what they plan to do, but Yahweh protects those helpless people [MET].
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。
I wish/desire that [Yahweh] would come from Jerusalem [MTY] and rescue [us] Israeli people! Yahweh, when you bless your people again, all of us Israeli people, who are the descendants of Jacob, will rejoice.
