< Psalms 14 >
1 The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt. They have done abominable works. There is none that does good.
Nkunga Davidi kuidi pfumu minyimbidi. Nkua buvulu wuntubanga mu ntimꞌandi ti: Kuisiko Nzambi! Baki bivisidi, mavanga mawu madi mambimbi; kuisiko mutu wumvanganga mamboti.
2 Jehovah looked down from heaven upon the sons of men to see if there were any who understood, who sought after God.
Yave, ku yilu ku kadi, wulembo tadi bana ba batu mu tala kani wulenda mona wumosi wunsundika, kani wumosi wuntombanga Nzambi.
3 They are all gone aside. They are together become filthy. There is none who does good, no, not one.
Baboso bavengama ayi bamana kibivisa va kimosi; kuisiko mutu wumvanganga mamboti, kadi mutu wumosi.
4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon Jehovah?
Batu boso bamvanganga mambu mambimbi basi nzayilu ko e? Bobo balembo dia batu bama, banga batu bandia dipha ayi bobo batelanga dizina di Yave ko.
5 There they were in great fear, for God is in the generation of the righteous.
Buna kuna bela tita mu diambu di tsisi bila Nzambi widi va khatitsika dikabu di batu basonga.
6 Ye put to shame the counsel of the poor because Jehovah is his refuge.
Beno mimvangi mi mambimbi, lulenda vunza zikhanu zi nsukami. Vayi Yave niandi suamunu kiandi.
7 O that the salvation of Israel came out of Zion! When Jehovah brings back the captivity of his people, then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
A enati phulusu yi Iseli yitotukila ku Sioni! Mu thangu Yave kela vutula kiuka ki batu bandi Bika Yakobi kamona khini ayi Iseli kayangadala.
