Psalms 53

1 For the music director. According to Mahalath. A psalm (maskil) of David. Only fools tell themselves, “God doesn't exist.” They are completely immoral, they commit terrible sins, not a single one of them does anything good.

Ang mangmang ay nagsabi sa puso niya, Walang Dios. Nangapahamak (sila) at nagsigawa ng kasuklamsuklam na kasamaan; walang gumawa ng mabuti.

2 God watches from heaven to see if anyone understands, if anyone wants to come to God.

Tinunghan ng Dios ang mga anak ng mga tao mula sa langit, upang tignan kung may sinomang nakakaunawa, na humanap sa Dios.

3 They have all fallen away, they are totally depraved; none of them does anything good, not even one.

Bawa't isa sa kanila ay tumalikod: sila'y magkakasamang naging mahahalay; walang gumawa ng mabuti, wala, wala kahit isa.

4 “Won't these people who do evil ever learn? They consume my people as if they were eating bread, and refuse to pray to me.”

Wala bang kaalaman ang mga manggagawa ng kasamaan? na siyang kumakain ng aking bayan na tila kumakain ng tinapay, at hindi nagsisitawag sa Dios.

5 They will become completely terrified, more frightened than they have ever been. God will scatter the bones of those who fight against you; you will defeat them because God has rejected them.

Doo'y nangapasa malaking katakutan (sila) na hindi kinaroroonan ng takot: sapagka't pinangalat ng Dios ang mga buto niya na humahantong laban sa iyo; iyong inilagay (sila) sa kahihiyan, sapagka't itinakuwil (sila) ng Dios.

6 If only God's salvation would come from Zion! When God restores his people, the people of Jacob will celebrate, and the people of Israel will be glad.

Oh kung ang kaligtasan ng Israel ay lumabas sa Sion. Pagka ibabalik ng Dios ang nangabihag ng kaniyang bayan, magagalak nga ang Jacob at matutuwa ang Israel.
