< 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.
【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 forth from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any man of understanding, that did seek after God.
上主由高天俯視世人之子,察看有無尋覓天主的智者。
3 They are all corrupt, they are together become impure; 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 'Shall not all the workers of iniquity know it, who eat up My people as they eat bread, and call not upon 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 are they in great fear; for God is with the righteous generation.
他們必然要驚慌失措,因上主喜愛義人家族。
6 Ye would put to shame the counsel of the poor, but the LORD is his refuge.
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 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.
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。
