< Psalms 14 >
1 Unto the end, a psalm for David. The fool hath said in his heart: There is no God, They are corrupt, and are become abominable in their ways: there is none that doth good, no not one.
Ang mangmang ay nagsabi sa kaniyang puso, walang Dios: sila'y nangapapahamak, sila'y nagsigawa ng kasuklamsuklam na mga gawa; walang gumagawa ng mabuti,
2 The Lord hath looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there be any that understand and seek God.
Tinutunghan ng Panginoon ang mga anak ng mga tao mula sa langit, upang tingnan, kung may sinomang nakakaunawa, na hinahanap ng Dios.
3 They are all gone aside, they are become unprofitable together: there is none that doth good, no not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre: with their tongues they acted deceitfully; the poison of asps is under their lips. Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness; their feet are swift to shed blood. Destruction and unhappiness in their ways: and the way of peace they have not known: there is no fear of God before their eyes.
Silang lahat ay nagsihiwalay; sila'y magkakasama na naging kahalayhalay; walang gumagawa ng mabuti, wala, wala kahit isa.
4 Shall not all they know that work iniquity, who devour my people as they eat bread?
Wala bang kaalaman ang lahat na manggagawa ng kasamaan? na siyang nagsisikain sa aking bayan na tila nagsisikain ng tinapay, at hindi nagsisitawag sa Panginoon.
5 They have not called upon the Lord: there have they trembled for fear, where there was no fear.
Doo'y nangapasa malaking katakutan (sila) sapagka't ang Dios ay nasa lahi ng matuwid.
6 For the Lord is in the just generation: you have confounded the counsel of the poor man, but the Lord is his hope.
Inyong inilalagay sa kahihiyan ang payo ng dukha, sapagka't ang Panginoon ang kaniyang kanlungan.
7 Who shall give out of Sion the salvation of Israel? when the Lord shall have turned away the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice and Israel shall be glad.
Oh kung ang kaligtasan ng Israel ay nanggagaling sa Sion! Kung ibabalik ng Panginoon ang nangabihag ng kaniyang bayan, magagalak nga ang Jacob, at masasayahan ang Israel.
