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.

Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi. Bazoba bamilobelaka: « Nzambe azali te. » Makanisi na bango esila kobeba, basalaka makambo ya nkele, mpe moko te asalaka bolamu.

2 The Lord looked downe from heauen vpon the children of men, to see if there were any that would vnderstand, and seeke God.

Wuta na Likolo, Yawe atalaka bato mpo na koluka koyeba soki ezali ata na moko oyo azali na mayele, oyo atalelaka Nzambe.

3 All are gone out of the way: they are all corrupt: there is none that doeth good, no not one.

Bango nyonso babunga nzela, bango nyonso bamibebisa; moko te asalaka bolamu, ata moto moko te!

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.

Boni, bato wana nyonso ya misala mabe bayebi eloko te? Bato baliaka bato na ngai ndenge baliaka lipa, babelelaka Yawe te!

5 There they shall be taken with feare, because God is in the generation of the iust.

Somo monene ekangi bango, pamba te Nzambe azali kati na bato ya sembo.

6 You haue made a mocke at the counsell of the poore, because the Lord is his trust.

Bino, bato ya misala mabe, bobebisaka mabongisi ya mobola kasi Yawe azali ebombamelo na ye.

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.

Tika ete lobiko ya Isalaele ebimela na Siona! Tango Yawe akobongisa bato na Ye, bakitani ya Jakobi bakosepela, mpe Isalaele ekozala na esengo.
