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.

Načelniku godbe na piščal; pesem Davidova ukovita. Nespametni govori v srci svojem: Ni ga Boga; pohujšujejo in ostudno krivico doprinašajo, ni ga, da bi delal dobro.

2 God looks down from heaven upon the sons of men to see if any understand, if any seek God.

Bog z neba gleda dol na sinove človeške, da bi videl, je li kateri, da bi bil razumen, da bi iskal Boga.

3 All have turned away, they have together become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.

Vsak je odstopil, izpridili so se vsi vkup: ni ga, da bi delal dobro, ne enega samega.

4 Will the workers of iniquity never learn? They devour my people like bread; they refuse to call upon God.

Ali si niso v svesti, kateri delajo krivico, ker žró ljudstvo moje kruh jedóč, ne kličejo Boga?

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.

Tam se preplašijo od groze, kjer ni groze; ker Bog razsuje kosti vsakega, kateri ima šatorišče svoje zoper tebe; osramotiš jih, ker Bog jih zameta.

6 Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come from Zion! When God restores His captive people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad!

O kdó naj dá blaginjo sè Sijona Izraelu? Ko bode nazaj peljal iz sužnjosti ljudstva svojega krdelo, veselil se bode Jakob, radoval se Izrael.
