Psalms 53

1 To the Overseer. — 'On a disease.' — An instruction, by David. A fool said in his heart, 'There is no God.' They have done corruptly, Yea, they have done abominable iniquity, There is none doing good.

Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Al-mahalath. Maskila nataon’ i Davida. Ny adala manao anakampo hoe: tsy misy Andriamanitra. Manao izay ratsy sy vetaveta izy, tsy misy manao ny tsara.

2 God from the heavens looked on the sons of men, To see if there be an understanding one, [One] seeking God.

Eny an-danitra Andriamanitra miondrika mijery ny zanak’ olombelona, mba hizaha na misy hendry mitady an’ Andriamanitra.

3 Every one went back, together they became filthy, There is none doing good — not even one.

Samy efa nivily izy rehetra ka tonga vetaveta avokoa; tsy misy manao ny tsara, na dia iray akory aza.

4 Have not workers of iniquity known, Those eating my people have eaten bread, God they have not called.

Tsy mahalala va ny mpanao ratsy, izay mihinana ny oloko toy ny fihinan-kanina, ary Andriamanitra tsy antsoiny?

5 There they feared a fear — there was no fear, For God hath scattered the bones of him Who is encamping against thee, Thou hast put to shame, For God hath despised them.

Indreo, matahotra dia matahotra ireny, nefa tsy nisy tokony hatahorany; fa Andriamanitra efa nanely ny taolan’ izay nitoby hamely anao; nampahamenatra azy ianao, satria efa narian’ Andriamanitra izy.

6 Who doth give from Zion the salvation of Israel? When God turneth back [to] a captivity of His people, Jacob doth rejoice — Israel is glad!

Enga anie ka hivoaka avy ao Ziona ny famonjena ny Isiraely! raha ampodin’ Andriamanitra avy amin’ ny fahababoana ny olony, dia ho faly Jakoba, ary ho ravoravo Isiraely.
