< 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.
Pou direktè koral la; selon mizik Mahalath Yon refleksyon pa David Moun fou a di nan kè li: “Nanpwen Bondye”. Yo konwonpi! Yo fè zak enjis ki abominab. Nanpwen ki fè sa ki bon.
2 God looks down from heaven on the descendants of Adam, to see if there are any who are wise, who seek after God.
Bondye te gade anba soti nan syèl la sou fis a lòm yo, pou wè si genyen youn ki gen bon konprann, ka p chache Bondye.
3 Every one of them has gone back. They have become filthy together. There is no one who does good, no, not one.
Yo tout te vire akote. Ansanm yo vin konwonpi. Nanpwen nan yo ki fè byen, pa menm youn.
4 Have evildoers no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and do not call on God?
Èske malfektè a mechanste (sila) yo pa gen okenn konesans, ka p manje pèp Mwen an konsi se pen yo manje, epi ki pa rele Bondye?
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.
La, yo te nan gwo laperèz kote pa te gen laperèz, paske Bondye te gaye zo a (sila) ki fè kan kont ou yo. Ou te fè yo vin wont, akoz Bondye te rejte yo.
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.
O ke delivrans Israël ta parèt sòti Sion! Lè Bondye restore pèp kaptif Li a, kite Jacob rejwi, kite Israël fè kè kontan.
