< Psalms 14 >
1 For the choirmaster. Of David. The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt; their acts are vile. There is no one who does good.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Omusirusiru ayogera mu mutima gwe nti, “Tewali Katonda.” Aboogera bwe batyo boonoonefu, bakola ebitasaana tekuli n’omu ku bo akola kirungi.
2 The LORD looks down from heaven upon the sons of men to see if any understand, if any seek God.
Mukama atunuulira abantu bonna mu nsi ng’asinziira mu ggulu, okulaba obanga mulimu mu bo ategeera, era abanoonya Katonda.
3 All have turned away, they have together become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.
Naye bonna bakyamye boonoonese; teri akola kirungi, era teri n’omu.
4 Will the workers of iniquity never learn? They devour my people like bread; they refuse to call upon the LORD.
Abo bonna abakola ebibi tebaliyiga? Kubanga basaanyaawo abantu bange ng’abalya emmere; so tebakoowoola Mukama.
5 There they are, overwhelmed with dread, for God is in the company of the righteous.
Balitya nnyo! Kubanga Katonda abeera wamu n’abatuukirivu.
6 You sinners frustrate the plans of the oppressed, yet the LORD is their shelter.
Mulemesa entegeka z’omwavu, songa Mukama kye kiddukiro kye.
7 Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come from Zion! When the LORD restores His captive people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad!
Singa obulokozi bwa Isirayiri butuuse mu kiseera kino nga buva mu Sayuuni! Mukama bw’alirokola abantu be, Yakobo alijaguza ne Isirayiri alisanyuka.
