Sòm 14

1 Pou chèf sanba yo. Se yon sòm David. Moun fou yo di nan kè yo: Pa gen Bondye. Yo tout fin pouri. Y'ap fè yon bann vye bagay sal. Pa gen yonn ki fè sa ki byen.

“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” The fool saith in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt; abominable are their doings; There is none that doeth good.

2 Seyè a rete nan syèl la, l'ap gade lèzòm anba, pou l' wè si gen ladan yo ki gen konprann, si gen ladan yo k'ap chache l'.

Jehovah looketh down from heaven upon the children of men, To see if there are any that have understanding, That have regard to God.

3 Men yo tout pèdi chemen yo. Yo tout lage kò yo nan vis. Pa gen yonn ladan yo ki fè sa ki byen, non, pa menm yon sèl ladan yo.

They are all gone out of the way; together are they corrupt; There is none that doeth good—no, not one.

4 Seyè a di: Moun sa yo k'ap fè mechanste yo, se konnen yo pa konnen? Y'ap souse pèp mwen an pou yo ka viv. Pa gen yonn ladan yo ki rele non mwen!

Shall not the evil-doers be requited, Who devour my people like bread, And call not upon Jehovah?

5 Men tou, yo pral sezi, yo pral tranble paske Bondye la avèk moun ki mache dwat yo.

Yea, then shall they be in great fear; For Jehovah is with the race of the righteous.

6 Y'ap pase sa malere yo gen lide fè a nan betiz, men se nan Seyè a malere yo mete konfyans yo.

Ye would put to shame the counsel of the poor; But Jehovah is their refuge.

7 Oo! Kilè Bondye va soti sou mòn Siyon an pou l' vin delivre pèp Izrayèl la? Lè Seyè a va fè pèp li a kanpe ankò, pitit pitit Jakòb yo pral fè fèt. Se vre wi, pèp Izrayèl la pral kontan.

Oh that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When Jehovah bringeth back the captives of his people, Then shall Jacob rejoice, and Israel be glad.
