Psalms 53

1 [For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Mahalath." A contemplation by David.] The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity. There is no one who does good.

マハラツ（樂器の名、あるひはいふ調べの名）にあはせて伶長にうたはしめたるダビデの教訓のうた 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 looks down from heaven on the descendants of Adam, to see if there are any who are wise, who seek after 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 Every one of them has gone back. They have become filthy together. There is no one who does good, no, not 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 Have evildoers no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and do not call on God?

不義をおこなふものは知見なきか 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 will be in great fear, where no fear had been, for God will scatter the bones of those who encamp against you. You will put them to shame, because God has rejected 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営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 Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion. When God brings back his people from captivity, may Jacob rejoice, may Israel be 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
