Psalms 14

1 To the victorie of Dauid. The vnwise man seide in his herte, God is not. Thei ben corrupt, and ben maad abhomynable in her studies; noon is that doith good, noon is til to oon.

Mpumbavu husema moyoni mwake, “Hakuna Mungu.” Wamepotoka nakufanya uovu haramu; hakuna hata mmoja atendaye dhambi.

2 The Lord bihelde fro heuene on the sones of men; that he se, if ony is vndurstondynge, ethir sekynge God.

Yahwe anatazama chini kwa wanadamu kutoka mbinguni aone kama kuna yeyote anayeelewa, amtafutaye Mungu.

3 Alle bowiden awei, togidere thei ben maad vnprofitable; noon is that doth good, noon is `til to oon. The throte of hem is an open sepulcre, thei diden gilefuli with her tungis; the venym of snakis is vndur her lippis. Whos mouth is ful of cursyng and bittirnesse; her feet ben swift to schede out blood. Sorewe and cursidnesse is in the weies of hem, and thei knewen not the weie of pees; the drede of God is not bifor her iyen.

Wote wamegeukia njia nyingine. Kwa pamoja wamepotoka. Hakuna yeyote atendaye mema, hakuna, hata mmoja.

4 Whether alle men that worchen wickidnesse schulen not knowe; that deuowren my puple, as mete of breed?

Je, hawajui lolote, wale wafanyao uovu, wale wanao kula watu wangu kama vile wanakula mkate, lakini hao hawamuiti Yahwe?

5 Thei clepeden not the Lord; thei trembliden there for dreed, where was no drede;

Wao wana tetemeka kwa hofu. Kwa kuwa Mungu yuko pamoja na kusanyiko la wenye haki!

6 for the Lord is in a riytful generacioun. Thou hast schent the counsel of a pore man; for the Lord is his hope.

Ninyi mnataka kumfedhehesha mtu maskini japo kuwa Yahwe ni kimbilio lake.

7 Who schal yyue fro Syon helthe to Israel? Whanne the Lord hath turned awei the caitifte of his puple; Jacob schal `fulli be ioiful, and Israel schal be glad.

Oh, kwamba wokovu wa Israeli ungetokea Sayuni! Wakati Yahwe akiwarudisha watu wake kutoka utumwani, ndipo Yakobo atashangilia na Israeli itakuwa na furaha!
