Psalms 14

1 For the Chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works; there is none that doeth good.

Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi. Bazoba bamilobelaka: « Nzambe azali te. » Makanisi na bango esila kobeba, basalaka makambo ya nkele, mpe moko te asalaka bolamu.

2 The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek after God.

Wuta na Likolo, Yawe atalaka bato mpo na koluka koyeba soki ezali ata na moko oyo azali na mayele, oyo atalelaka Nzambe.

3 They are all gone aside; they are together become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

Bango nyonso babunga nzela, bango nyonso bamibebisa; moko te asalaka bolamu, ata moto moko te!

4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.

Boni, bato wana nyonso ya misala mabe bayebi eloko te? Bato baliaka bato na ngai ndenge baliaka lipa, babelelaka Yawe te!

5 There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.

Somo monene ekangi bango, pamba te Nzambe azali kati na bato ya sembo.

6 Ye put to shame the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.

Bino, bato ya misala mabe, bobebisaka mabongisi ya mobola kasi Yawe azali ebombamelo na ye.

7 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, then shall Jacob rejoice, [and] Israel shall be glad.

Tika ete lobiko ya Isalaele ebimela na Siona! Tango Yawe akobongisa bato na Ye, bakitani ya Jakobi bakosepela, mpe Isalaele ekozala na esengo.
