< Psalms 53 >
1 For the choirmaster. According to Mahalath. A Maskil of David. The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt; their ways are vile. There is no one who does good.
in finem pro Melech intellegentiae David dixit insipiens in corde suo non est Deus corrupti sunt et abominabiles facti sunt in iniquitatibus non est qui faciat bonum
2 God looks down from heaven upon the sons of men to see if any understand, if any seek God.
Deus de caelo prospexit in filios hominum ut videat si est intellegens aut requirens Deum
3 All have turned away, they have together become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.
omnes declinaverunt simul inutiles facti sunt non est qui faciat bonum non est usque ad unum
4 Will the workers of iniquity never learn? They devour my people like bread; they refuse to call upon God.
nonne scient omnes qui operantur iniquitatem qui devorant plebem meam ut cibum panis
5 There they are, overwhelmed with dread, where there was nothing to fear. For God has scattered the bones of those who besieged you. You put them to shame, for God has despised them.
Deum non invocaverunt illic trepidabunt timore ubi non fuit timor quoniam Deus dissipavit ossa eorum qui hominibus placent confusi sunt quoniam Deus sprevit eos
6 Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come from Zion! When God restores His captive people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad!
quis dabit ex Sion salutare Israhel dum convertit Deus captivitatem plebis suae exultabit Iacob et laetabitur Israhel
