1 Přednímu zpěváku, píseň Davidova. Říká blázen v srdci svém: Není Boha. Porušeni jsou, a ohavní v snažnostech; není, kdo by činil dobré.
Unto the end, a psalm for David. The fool hath said in his heart: There is no God, They are corrupt, and are become abominable in their ways: there is none that doth good, no not one.
2 Hospodin s nebe popatřil na syny lidské, aby viděl, byl-li by kdo rozumný a hledající Boha.
The Lord hath looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there be any that understand and seek God.
3 Všickni se odvrátili, napořád neužiteční učiněni jsou; není, kdo by činil dobré, není ani jednoho.
They are all gone aside, they are become unprofitable together: there is none that doth good, no not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre: with their tongues they acted deceitfully; the poison of asps is under their lips. Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness; their feet are swift to shed blood. Destruction and unhappiness in their ways: and the way of peace they have not known: there is no fear of God before their eyes.
4 Zdaliž nevědí všickni činitelé nepravosti, že zžírají lid můj, jako by chléb jedli? Hospodina pak nevzývají.
Shall not all they know that work iniquity, who devour my people as they eat bread?
5 Tehdáž se náramně strašiti budou; nebo Bůh jest v rodině spravedlivého.
They have not called upon the Lord: there have they trembled for fear, where there was no fear.
6 Radu chudého potupujete, ale Hospodin jest naděje jeho.
For the Lord is in the just generation: you have confounded the counsel of the poor man, but the Lord is his hope.
7 Ó by z Siona dáno bylo spasení Izraelovi. Když Hospodin zase přivede zajaté lidu svého, plésati bude Jákob, a veseliti se Izrael.
Who shall give out of Sion the salvation of Israel? when the Lord shall have turned away the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice and Israel shall be glad.
