Psalms 53

1 TO THE OVERSEER. “ON A DISEASE.” AN INSTRUCTION OF DAVID. A fool said in his heart, “There is no God.” They have done corruptly, Indeed, they have done abominable iniquity, There is none doing good.

Kathutkung: Devit Tamipathu niteh, a lungthung hoi Cathut awm hoeh ati awh. Ka rawk niteh, panuet ka tho e payonnae hah a sak awh teh, hawinae kasakkung awm awh hoeh.

2 God looked on the sons of men from the heavens, To see if there is an understanding one, [One] seeking God.

Thaipanueknae ka tawn e tami hoi Cathut ka tawng e tami ao han vaimoe titeh panue han a ngai dawkvah, Cathut ni kalvan hoi talai van a khet cathuk.

3 Everyone went back, together they became filthy, There is none doing good—not even one.

Tami pueng koung a payon awh teh, koung a rawk awh. Hawinae kasakkung awm hoeh. Buet touh boehai awm hoeh.

4 Workers of iniquity have not known, Those eating my people have eaten bread, They have not called God.

Vaiyei ca e patetlah ka taminaw hah a ca awh teh, Cathut ka kaw hoeh e tamikathoutnaw panueknaen tawn laipalah maw ao awh.

5 There they feared a fear—there was no fear, For God has scattered the bones of him Who is encamping against you, You have put to shame, For God has despised them.

Taki hane ohoehnae koe puenghoi a taki awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang na kalup niteh, na ka tarannaw e hru teh Cathut ni paringparang a kâyat sak. Ahnimouh teh Cathut ni a takhoe dawkvah, kayayeirai phu hoi ao sak han.

6 Who gives the salvation of Israel from Zion? When God turns back [to] a captivity of His people, Jacob rejoices—Israel is glad!

Oe Isarel rungngangnae teh Zion hoi tâcawt naseh. San lah kaawm e taminaw Cathut ni bout a tâcokhai toteh, Jakop konawm naseh, Isarel lunghawi naseh.
