< Psalms 53 >
1 To the chief Musician. On Mahalath: an instruction. Of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God! They have corrupted themselves, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.
Fún adarí orin. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí mahalati. Maskili ti Dafidi. Aṣiwèrè wí ní ọkàn rẹ̀ pé, “Ọlọ́run kò sí.” Wọ́n bàjẹ́, gbogbo ọ̀nà wọn sì burú; kò sì ṣí ẹnìkan tí ń ṣe rere.
2 God looked down from the heavens upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
Ọlọ́run bojú wo ilẹ̀ láti ọ̀run sórí àwọn ọmọ ènìyàn, láti wò bóyá ẹnìkan wà, tí ó ní òye, tí ó sì ń wá Ọlọ́run.
3 Every one of them is gone back, they are together become corrupt: there is none that doeth good, not even one.
Gbogbo ènìyàn tí ó ti yí padà, wọ́n ti parapọ̀ di ìbàjẹ́; kò sí ẹnìkan tí ó ń ṣe rere, kò sí ẹnìkan.
4 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, eating up my people [as] they eat bread? they call not upon God.
Ṣé àwọn oníṣẹ́ búburú kò ní ìmọ̀? Àwọn ẹni tí ń jẹ ènìyàn mi, bí ẹni jẹun tí wọn kò sì pe Ọlọ́run?
5 There were they in great fear, where no fear was; for God scattereth the bones of him that encampeth against thee. Thou hast put [them] to shame, for God hath despised them.
Níbẹ̀ ni ìwọ gbé wà ní ìbẹ̀rù ńlá níbi tí ẹ̀rù kò gbé sí, nítorí Ọlọ́run tí fọ́n egungun àwọn tí ó dó tì ọ́ ká; ìwọ tí dójútì wọ́n, nítorí Ọlọ́run ti kẹ́gàn wọn.
6 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God turneth again the captivity of his people, Jacob shall be glad, Israel shall rejoice.
Ìgbàlà Israẹli ìbá jáde wá láti Sioni! Nígbà tí Ọlọ́run bá mú ohun ìní àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ padà, jẹ́ kí Jakọbu yọ̀ kí inú Israẹli sì máa dùn!
