< Psalms 14 >
1 For the Chief Musician. By David. The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt. They have done abominable deeds. There is no one who does good.
Sinasabi ng mangmang sa kaniyang puso, “Walang Diyos.” (Sila) ay masama at nakagawa ng kasuklam-suklam na kasalanan; walang sinuman ang gumagawa ng mabuti.
2 The LORD looked down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there were any who understood, who sought after God.
Si Yahweh ay tumingin sa baba mula sa langit sa mga anak ng sangkatauhan para makita kung mayroong sinuman ang nakauunawa, kung sino ang naghahanap sa kaniya.
3 They have all gone aside. They have together become corrupt. There is no one who does good, no, not one.
Ang lahat ay tumalikod; ang lahat ay naging marumi; walang sinuman ang gumagawa ng mabuti, wala, kahit isa.
4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and do not call on the LORD?
Hindi ba nila alam ang kahit na ano, (sila) na nakagawa ng kasalanan, (sila) na nilalamon ang aking mga tao gaya ng pagkain ng tinapay, pero hindi tumatawag kay Yahweh?
5 There they were in great fear, for God is in the generation of the righteous.
(Sila) ay nanginginig ng may pangamba, dahil kasama ng Diyos ang matuwid na kapulungan!
6 You frustrate the plan of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.
Gusto mong hiyain ang taong mahirap kahit na si Yahweh ang kaniyang kanlungan.
7 Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion! When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people, then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
Oh, ang kaligtasan ng Israel ay manggagaling mula sa Sion! Kapag binalik ni Yahweh ang kaniyang bayan mula sa pagkakabihag, magagalak si Jacob at matutuwa ang Israel!
