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.

Ang mangmang ay nagsabi sa puso niya, Walang Dios. Nangapahamak (sila) at nagsigawa ng kasuklamsuklam na kasamaan; walang gumawa ng mabuti.

2 God looks down from heaven on the descendants of Adam, to see if there are any who are wise, who seek after God.

Tinunghan ng Dios ang mga anak ng mga tao mula sa langit, upang tignan kung may sinomang nakakaunawa, na humanap sa Dios.

3 Every one of them has gone back. They have become filthy together. There is no one who does good, no, not one.

Bawa't isa sa kanila ay tumalikod: sila'y magkakasamang naging mahahalay; walang gumawa ng mabuti, wala, wala kahit isa.

4 Have evildoers no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and do not call on God?

Wala bang kaalaman ang mga manggagawa ng kasamaan? na siyang kumakain ng aking bayan na tila kumakain ng tinapay, at hindi nagsisitawag sa Dios.

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.

Doo'y nangapasa malaking katakutan (sila) na hindi kinaroroonan ng takot: sapagka't pinangalat ng Dios ang mga buto niya na humahantong laban sa iyo; iyong inilagay (sila) sa kahihiyan, sapagka't itinakuwil (sila) ng Dios.

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.

Oh kung ang kaligtasan ng Israel ay lumabas sa Sion. Pagka ibabalik ng Dios ang nangabihag ng kaniyang bayan, magagalak nga ang Jacob at matutuwa ang Israel.
