< Psalms 14 >
1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. The foole hath said in his heart, There is no God: they haue corrupted, and done an abominable worke: there is none that doeth good.
【無神者最愚蠢】愚妄人心中說:沒有天主;他們喪盡天良,恣意作惡;行善的人實在找不到一個!
2 The Lord looked downe from heauen vpon the children of men, to see if there were any that would vnderstand, and seeke God.
上主由高天俯視世人之子,察看有無尋覓天主的智者。
3 All are gone out of the way: they are all corrupt: there is none that doeth good, no not one.
都離棄了正道,趨向邪惡:沒有一人行善,實在沒有一個。
4 Doe not all the workers of iniquitie know that they eate vp my people, as they eate bread? they call not vpon the Lord.
那些作奸犯科的人,吞我民如食饅頭;總不呼號上主的人,豈不是愚蠢胡塗?
5 There they shall be taken with feare, because God is in the generation of the iust.
他們必然要驚慌失措,因上主喜愛義人家族。
6 You haue made a mocke at the counsell of the poore, because the Lord is his trust.
你們儘可鄙視貧苦者的主張,但上主卻要自作他們的保障。
7 Oh giue saluation vnto Israel out of Zion: when the Lord turneth the captiuitie of his people, then Iaakob shall reioyce, and Israel shall be glad.
唯以色列人的救援來自熙雍! 一旦上主將自己民族的命運變更,雅各伯必將喜慶,以色列必將歡騰。
