Psalms 53

1 To the choirmaster on Mahalath a poem of David. He says a fool in heart his there not [is] a god they act corruptly and they act abominably unrighteousness there not [is one who] does good.

Isithutha sithi enhliziyweni yaso: KakulaNkulunkulu. Bonakele, benza ububi obunengekayo; kakho owenza okuhle.

2 God from heaven he looks down on [the] children of humankind to see ¿ [is] there [one who] acts prudently [one who] seeks God.

UNkulunkulu wakhangela phansi esemazulwini phezu kwabantwana babantu, ukubona ukuthi ukhona yini oqedisisayo, odinga uNkulunkulu.

3 All of it he turns back together they are corrupt there not [is one who] does good there not also [is] one.

Bonke ngamunye wabo babuyele emuva, bonke bonakele; kakho owenza okuhle, kakho loyedwa.

4 ¿ Not do they know [those who] do wickedness [those who] devour people my they eat bread God not they call on.

Kabazi yini bonke abenzi bobubi, abadla abantu bami njengoba besidla isinkwa? Kababizi uNkulunkulu.

5 There - they feared a fear [which] not it was fear for God he has scattered [the] bones of [one who] encamped against you you have put [them] to shame for God he has rejected them.

Lapho besaba lokwesaba, kungekho okwesabekayo. Ngoba uNkulunkulu uchithachithe amathambo akhe omisa inkamba emelane lawe; ubayangisile, ngoba uNkulunkulu ubadelile.

6 Who? will he give [will be] from Zion [the] salvation of Israel when turns back God [the] captivity of people his let it be glad Jacob let it rejoice Israel.

Kungathi insindiso zikaIsrayeli zingavela eZiyoni! Lapho uNkulunkulu ebuyisa ukuthunjwa kwabantu bakhe, uJakobe uzathaba, uIsrayeli athokoze.
