< Psalms 53 >
1 Unto the end. For Mahalath: the thoughts of David. The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They were corrupted, and they became abominable with iniquities. There is no one who does good.
愚かなるものは心のうちに神なしといへり かれらは腐れたりかれらは憎むべき不義をおこなへり善をおこなふ者なし
2 God gazed down from heaven on the sons of men, to see if there were any who were considering or seeking God.
神は天より人の子をのぞみて悟るものと神をたづぬる者とありやなしやを見たまひしに
3 All have gone astray; together they have become useless. There is no one who does good; there is not even one.
みな退ぞきてことごとく汚れたり善をなすものなし一人だになし
4 Will they never learn: all those who work iniquity, who devour my people like a meal of bread?
不義をおこなふものは知覺なきか かれらは物くふごとくわが民をくらひ また神をよばふことをせざるなり
5 They have not called upon God. In that place, they have trembled in fear, where there was no fear. For God has scattered the bones of those who please men. They have been confounded, because God has spurned them.
かれらは懼るべきことのなきときに大におそれたり 神はなんぢにむかひて營をつらぬるものの骨をちらしたまへばなり 神かれらを棄たまひしによりて汝かれらを辱かしめたり
6 Who will grant from Zion the salvation of Israel? Jacob will exult, when God will convert the captivity of his people; and Israel will rejoice.
願くはシオンよりイスラエルの救のいでんことを 神その民のとらはれたるを返したまふときヤコブはよろこびイスラエルは樂まん
