< Psalmi 53 >

1 Zborovođi. Prema napjevu “Bolest”. Poučna pjesma. Davidova. Bezumnik reče u srcu: “Nema Boga!” Pokvareni rade gadosti; nitko da čini dobro.
To the chief Musician. On Mahalath: an instruction. Of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God! They have corrupted themselves, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.
2 Bog s nebesa gleda na sinove ljudske da vidi ima li tko razuman Boga da traži.
God looked down from the heavens upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
3 No svi skrenuše zajedno, svi se pokvariše: nitko da čini dobro - nikoga nema.
Every one of them is gone back, they are together become corrupt: there is none that doeth good, not even one.
4 Neće li se urazumiti svi što čine bezakonje, koji proždiru narod moj kao da jedu kruh? Boga oni ne zazivlju:
Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, eating up my people [as] they eat bread? they call not upon God.
5 od straha će drhtat' gdje straha i nema jer Bog će rasuti kosti onih koji tebe opsjedaju, bit će posramljeni jer će ih Bog odbaciti.
There were they in great fear, where no fear was; for God scattereth the bones of him that encampeth against thee. Thou hast put [them] to shame, for God hath despised them.
6 O, neka dođe sa Siona spas Izraelu! Kad Bog promijeni udes naroda svoga, klicat će Jakov, radovat' se Izrael.
Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God turneth again the captivity of his people, Jacob shall be glad, Israel shall rejoice.
