Psalms 53

1 For the chief musician; set to Mahalath. A maschil 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.

大衛的訓誨詩，交與伶長。調用麻哈拉。 愚頑人心裏說：沒有上帝。 他們都是邪惡，行了可憎惡的罪孽； 沒有一個人行善。

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

上帝從天上垂看世人，要看有明白的沒有？ 有尋求他的沒有？

3 They have all turned away. Together they have become corrupt. There is not one who does good, not even one.

他們各人都退後，一同變為污穢； 並沒有行善的，連一個也沒有。

4 Do those who commit iniquity have no understanding— those who devour my people as if they were eating bread and they do not call on God?

作孽的沒有知識嗎？ 他們吞吃我的百姓如同吃飯一樣，並不求告上帝。

5 They were in great fear, although no reason to fear was there; for God will scatter the bones of whoever will camp against you; such people will be put to shame because God has rejected them.

他們在無可懼怕之處就大大害怕， 因為上帝把那安營攻擊你之人的骨頭散開了。 你使他們蒙羞，因為上帝棄絕了他們。

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

但願以色列的救恩從錫安而出。 上帝救回他被擄的子民那時， 雅各要快樂，以色列要歡喜。
