Psalms 53

1 [Only] foolish people say to themselves, “There is no God!” People who say that are corrupt; they commit terrible sins; there is not one of them who does what is good/right.

Dāvida mācības dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim ar stabulēm. Ģeķis saka savā sirdī: Dieva nav. Tie samaitājās un sagānās ar netaisnību, nav neviena, kas labu dara.

2 God looks down from heaven and sees humans; he looks to see if anyone is [very] wise, with the result that he seeks [to know] God.

Dievs skatās no debesīm uz cilvēku bērniem, redzēt, vai jel kas esot prātīgs, kas Dievu meklē.

3 [But] they are all morally corrupt; no one does what is good/right.

Bet tie visi atkāpušies, tie kopā samaitājušies; nav, kas labu dara, it neviena.

4 Will all these evil people never learn [what God will do to them]? They act violently toward Yahweh’s people while eating the food that he provides, and they never pray to Yahweh.

Vai tad to neatzīst tie ļauna darītāji, kas manus ļaudis ēd, kā ēd maizi, bet Dievu tie nepiesauc.

5 But [some day] those people will become terrified, like they have never been terrified before, because God will cause those who are separated from him to die, and he will [disrespect them by] scattering their bones. They have rejected God, so he will cause them to be [defeated and] completely disgraced.

Tad tiem uzkrita bailes, kur bailes nebija; jo Dievs izklīdināja tavu spaidītāju kaulus; Tu tos liki kaunā, jo Dievs tos bija atmetis.

6 I wish/desire that someone from Jerusalem [MTY] would come and rescue the Israeli [people]! God, when you bless your people again, [all] the Israeli [people, all the descendants of] Jacob, will rejoice.

Ak, kaut Israēla pestīšana nāktu no Ciānas! Kad Dievs novērsīs Savu ļaužu cietumu, tad Jēkabs priecāsies un Israēls līksmosies.
