Sòm 14

1 Pou direktè koral la; yon sòm David Moun fou a di nan kè l: “Nanpwen Bondye.” Yo konwonpi. Yo te fè zak abominab. Nanpwen ki fè sa ki bon.

“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 SENYÈ a te gade anba soti nan syèl la sou fis a lòm yo pou wè si genyen ki konprann, k ap chache Bondye.

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 Yo tout te vire akote. Ansanm yo te vin konwonpi. Nanpwen ki fè sa ki bon, pa menm youn.

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

4 Èske tout malfektè inikite yo pa konnen, (sila) Ki manje pèp mwen yo tankou y ap manje pen an, san yo pa rele SENYÈ a?

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

5 La, yo nan gwo danje, paske Bondye rete avèk jenerasyon ki dwat la.

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

6 Nou meprize bezwen aflije a, men SENYÈ a se refij li.

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

7 O ke sali Israël la ta sòti nan Sion! Lè SENYÈ a restore pèp kaptif li a, Jacob va rejwi, e Israël va gen kè 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.
