Psalms 14

1 For the end, Psalm of David. The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They have corrupted [themselves], and become abominable in their devices; there is none that does goodness, there is not even so much as one.

Az éneklőmesternek; Dávidé. Azt mondja a balgatag az ő szívében: Nincs Isten. Megromlottak, útálatosságot cselekedtek; nincs, a ki jót cselekedjék.

2 The Lord looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any that understood, or sought after god.

Az Úr letekintett a mennyből az emberek fiaira, hogy meglássa, ha van-é értelmes, Istent kereső?

3 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become good for nothing, there is none that does good, no not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness; their feet are swift to shed blood: destruction and misery are in their ways; and the way of peace they have not known: there is no fear of God before their eyes.

Mindnyájan elhajlottak; egyetemben elromlottak, nincs, a ki jót cselekedjék, nincsen csak egy sem.

4 Will not all the workers of iniquity know, who eat up my people as they would eat bread? they have not called upon the Lord.

Nem tudják-é ezt mind a gonosztévők, a kik megeszik az én népemet, mintha kenyeret ennének, az Urat pedig segítségül nem hívják?

5 There were they alarmed with fear, where there was no fear; for God is in the righteous generation.

Majd rettegnek rettegéssel, mert Isten az igaz nemzetséggel van!

6 You have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the Lord is his hope.

A szegénynek tanácsát kicsúfoljátok, mert az Úr az ő bizodalma.

7 Who will bring the salvation of Israel out of Sion? when the Lord brings back the captivity of his people, let Jacob exult, and Israel be glad.

Vajha eljőne Sionból Izráelnek a szabadítás! Mikor az Úr visszahozza népének foglyait, Jákób örül majd és vigad Izráel.
