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.

Pou chèf sanba yo. Se yon sòm David. Moun fou yo di nan kè yo: Pa gen Bondye. Yo tout fin pouri. Y'ap fè yon bann vye bagay sal. Pa gen yonn ki fè sa ki byen.

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.

Seyè a rete nan syèl la, l'ap gade lèzòm anba, pou l' wè si gen ladan yo ki gen konprann, si gen ladan yo k'ap chache l'.

3 They have all gone out of the way together; they are unclean, there is not one who does good, no, not one.

Men yo tout pèdi chemen yo. Yo tout lage kò yo nan vis. Pa gen yonn ladan yo ki fè sa ki byen, non, pa menm yon sèl ladan yo.

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.

Seyè a di: Moun sa yo k'ap fè mechanste yo, se konnen yo pa konnen? Y'ap souse pèp mwen an pou yo ka viv. Pa gen yonn ladan yo ki rele non mwen!

5 Then were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the upright.

Men tou, yo pral sezi, yo pral tranble paske Bondye la avèk moun ki mache dwat yo.

6 You have put to shame the thoughts of the poor, but the Lord is his support.

Y'ap pase sa malere yo gen lide fè a nan betiz, men se nan Seyè a malere yo mete konfyans yo.

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.

Oo! Kilè Bondye va soti sou mòn Siyon an pou l' vin delivre pèp Izrayèl la? Lè Seyè a va fè pèp li a kanpe ankò, pitit pitit Jakòb yo pral fè fèt. Se vre wi, pèp Izrayèl la pral kontan.
