< Psalms 14 >
1 For the Leader. A Psalm of David. The fool hath said in his heart: 'There is no God'; they have dealt corruptly, they have done abominably; there is none that doeth good.
[Aka mawt ham David kah] Hlang ang loh amah lungbuei neh, “Pathen om pawh,” a ti dongah poci uh tih, a bibi khaw tueilaeh kap. A then aka saii khaw om pawh.
2 The LORD looked forth from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any man of understanding, that did seek after God.
Vaan lamkah BOEIPA loh hlang ca rhoek te hmuh hamla a dan. Pathen aka toem lungming khaw om van nim?
3 They are all corrupt, they are together become impure; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Hlang boeih loh thikat la taengphael uh tih rhonging uh. A then aka saii om pawh. Pakhat khaw om pawh.
4 'Shall not all the workers of iniquity know it, who eat up My people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD?'
Ka pilnam vaidam la aka bai tih aka yoop, BOEIPA aka khue mueh, boethae aka saii boeih loh ming mahpawt nim?
5 There are they in great fear; for God is with the righteous generation.
Aka dueng thawnpuei taengah Pathen a om dongah birhihnah neh pahoi birhih uh.
6 Ye would put to shame the counsel of the poor, but the LORD is his refuge.
Mangdaeng kah a cilsuep te na rholrhak cakhaw BOEIPA te anih kah hlipyingnah ni.
7 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When the LORD turneth the captivity of His people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.
Zion lamkah Israel khangnah u long hang khuen. BOEIPA loh a pilnam thongtla te a lat vaengah Jakob omngaih saeh lamtah Israel a kohoe saeh.
