Psalms 14

1 To the Overseer. — By David. A fool hath said in his heart, 'God is not;' They have done corruptly, They have done abominable actions, There is not a doer of 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 Jehovah from the heavens Hath looked on the sons of men, To see if there is a wise one — seeking God.

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

3 The whole have turned aside, Together they have been filthy: There is not a doer of good, not even one.

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

4 Have all working iniquity not known? Those consuming my people have eaten bread, Jehovah they have not called.

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

5 There they have feared a fear, For God [is] in the generation of the righteous.

Balitya nnyo! Kubanga Katonda abeera wamu n’abatuukirivu.

6 The counsel of the poor ye cause to stink, Because Jehovah [is] his refuge.

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

7 'Who doth give from Zion the salvation of Israel? When Jehovah doth turn back [To] a captivity of His people, Jacob doth rejoice — Israel is glad!

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