Psalms 14

1 For the chief musician. A psalm of David. A fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt and have done abominable iniquity; there is no one who does good.

Ho a i Talèn-tsakera; Sabo’ i Davide Hoe ty mineñe an-tro’e ao: Tsy eo ze o Andrianañahare zao. Lo-tsereke irezay, mitoloñe an-kativañe; leo raike tsy manao soa.

2 Yahweh looks down from heaven on the children of mankind to see if there are any who understand, who seek after him.

Misary o ana’ ondatio hirik’an-dikerañ’ ao t’Iehovà, hahaoniña’e ke eo ty mahilala mpitsoeke an’ Andrianañahare.

3 They have all turned away. Together they have become corrupt. There is no one who does good, no, not one.

Sindre mandifike, mitrao-kaleorañe; tsy eo ty manao soa, leo raike.

4 Do they not know anything, those who commit iniquity, those who eat up my people as they eat bread, but who do not call on Yahweh?

Songa tsy aman-kilala o mpitolon-karatiañeo, o mampibotseke ondatikoo manahake ty filintseña’e mofo, vaho tsy mitoka Iehovà.

5 They tremble with dread, for God is with the righteous assembly!

An-gebahebak’ ao iereo, fe amy tariratse vañoñey t’i Andrianañahare.

6 You want to humiliate the poor person even though Yahweh is his refuge.

Ho naoveove’ areo ty fikabijà’ o rarakeo, fe fitsoloha’iareo t’Iehovà.

7 Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come from Zion! When Yahweh brings back his people from the captivity, then Jacob will rejoice and Israel will be glad!

Toe hiboake Tsiône ao ty fandrombaha’ Israele! ie ampitolihe’ Iehovà ty fandrohizañe ondati’eo; le hirebeke t’Iakobe, vaho hifale t’Israele!
