Psalms 53

1 For the Leader; upon Mahalath. Maschil of David. The fool hath said in his heart: 'There is no God'; they have dealt corruptly, and have done abominable iniquity; there is none that doeth good.

Načelniku godbe na piščal; pesem Davidova ukovita. Nespametni govori v srci svojem: Ni ga Boga; pohujšujejo in ostudno krivico doprinašajo, ni ga, da bi delal dobro.

2 God looked forth from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any man of understanding, that did seek after God.

Bog z neba gleda dol na sinove človeške, da bi videl, je li kateri, da bi bil razumen, da bi iskal Boga.

3 Every one of them is unclean, they are together become impure; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

Vsak je odstopil, izpridili so se vsi vkup: ni ga, da bi delal dobro, ne enega samega.

4 'Shall not the workers of iniquity know it, who eat up My people as they eat bread, and call not upon God?'

Ali si niso v svesti, kateri delajo krivico, ker žró ljudstvo moje kruh jedóč, ne kličejo Boga?

5 There are they in great fear, where no fear was; for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee; Thou hast put them to shame, because God hath rejected them.

Tam se preplašijo od groze, kjer ni groze; ker Bog razsuje kosti vsakega, kateri ima šatorišče svoje zoper tebe; osramotiš jih, ker Bog jih zameta.

6 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God turneth the captivity of His people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.

O kdó naj dá blaginjo sè Sijona Izraelu? Ko bode nazaj peljal iz sužnjosti ljudstva svojega krdelo, veselil se bode Jakob, radoval se Izrael.
