< Psalms 14 >

1 To the chief music-maker. Of David. The foolish man has said in his heart, God will not do anything. They are unclean, they have done evil works; there is not one who does good.
Kuom jatend wer. Zaburi mar Daudi. Ngʼat mofuwo wacho e chunye niya, “Nyasaye onge.” Gin joma okethore, timbegi richo mokalo tongʼ, onge kata ngʼato achiel matimo maber.
2 The Lord was looking down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there were any who had wisdom, searching after God.
Jehova Nyasaye ngʼiyo ji duto gie polo, mondo oneye ka bende nitie moro kuomgi ma nigi winjo, kata ka bende nitie moro kuomgi mamanyo Nyasaye.
3 They have all gone out of the way together; they are unclean, there is not one who does good, no, not one.
Ji duto osebaro, giduto kaachiel gisedoko joma okethore; onge ngʼama timo maber, onge kata achiel.
4 Have all the workers of evil no knowledge? they take my people for food as they would take bread; they make no prayer to the Lord.
Bende joma timo timbe maricho dipuonjre adier? Gin joma kidho joga kaka ji chamo kuon; kendo gin joma ok luong Jehova Nyasaye mondo okonygi.
5 Then were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the upright.
Negie kaka luoro dwaro negogi, nikech Nyasaye nitie e chokruok mar joma kare.
6 You have put to shame the thoughts of the poor, but the Lord is his support.
Un joma timo gik maricho, uketho chenro joma odhier, to Jehova Nyasaye e kar pondo margi.
7 May the salvation of Israel come out of Zion! when the fate of his people is changed by the Lord, Jacob will have joy and Israel will be glad.
Yaye, mad warruok mar Israel obi koa Sayun! Kinde ma Jehova Nyasaye duogo ne joge mwandugi, onego joka Jakobo obed moil kendo Israel obed mamor!
