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.

愚かなるものは心のうちに神なしといへり かれらは腐れたりかれらは憎むべき不義をおこなへり善をおこなふ者なし

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

神は天より人の子をのぞみて悟るものと神をたづぬる者とありやなしやを見たまひしに

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

みな退ぞきてことごとく汚れたり善をなすものなし一人だになし

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

不義をおこなふものは知覺なきか かれらは物くふごとくわが民をくらひ また神をよばふことをせざるなり

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.

かれらは懼るべきことのなきときに大におそれたり 神はなんぢにむかひて營をつらぬるものの骨をちらしたまへばなり 神かれらを棄たまひしによりて汝かれらを辱かしめたり

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

願くはシオンよりイスラエルの救のいでんことを 神その民のとらはれたるを返したまふときヤコブはよろこびイスラエルは樂まん
