Psalms 14

1 To 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.

Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Omusirusiru ayogera mu mutima gwe nti, “Tewali Katonda.” Aboogera bwe batyo boonoonefu, bakola ebitasaana tekuli n’omu ku bo akola kirungi.

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

Mukama atunuulira abantu bonna mu nsi ng’asinziira mu ggulu, okulaba obanga mulimu mu bo ategeera, era abanoonya Katonda.

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

Naye bonna bakyamye boonoonese; teri akola kirungi, era teri n’omu.

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

Abo bonna abakola ebibi tebaliyiga? Kubanga basaanyaawo abantu bange ng’abalya emmere; so tebakoowoola Mukama.

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

Balitya nnyo! Kubanga Katonda abeera wamu n’abatuukirivu.

6 Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD [is] his refuge.

Mulemesa entegeka z’omwavu, songa Mukama kye kiddukiro kye.

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

Singa obulokozi bwa Isirayiri butuuse mu kiseera kino nga buva mu Sayuuni! Mukama bw’alirokola abantu be, Yakobo alijaguza ne Isirayiri alisanyuka.
