< Dagiti Salmo 14 >
1 Kuna ti maag a tao iti pusona, “Awan ti Dios.” Dakesda ken nakaaramidda iti makarimon a basol; awan ti uray maysa nga agar-aramid iti nasayaat.
[Only] foolish people say to themselves, “There is no God!” People who say those things are corrupt/worthless; they do abominable/detestable deeds; there is not one [of them] who does what is good/right.
2 Tumantannawag ni Yahweh manipud langit kadagiti annak ti sangkatao-an tapno kitaenna no adda iti siasinoman a makaawat, a mangbiruk kenkuana.
Yahweh looks down from heaven and sees humans; he looks to see if anyone is very wise, with the result that he desires [to know] God.
3 Simmina ti tunggal maysa; nagbalinda amin a narugit; awan ti uray maysa nga agar-aramid iti naimbag, awan, uray maysa.
But they are all corrupt/evil; no one does what is good/right.
4 Awan kadi ti aniaman a banag nga ammoda, dagiti agar-aramid iti kinadakes, dagiti mang-mangan kadagiti tattaok a kas iti pannanganda iti tinapay, ken dagiti saan nga umaw-awag kenni Yahweh?
Will those evil people never learn [what God will do to punish them] [RHQ]? They act violently toward Yahweh’s people while eating the food that he provides, and they never pray to Yahweh.
5 Agpigergerda iti buteng, ta adda ti Dios kadagiti nalinteg a taripnong!
But [some day] they will become very terrified because God helps those who act righteously [and will punish those who reject him].
6 Kayatyo nga ibabain ti napanglaw a tao uray no ni Yahweh ti kamangna.
Those who do evil may prevent helpless people from doing what they plan to do, but Yahweh protects those helpless people [MET].
7 O, tapno umay koma ti pannakaisalakan ti Israel manipud iti Sion! Inton isubli ni Yahweh dagiti tattaona manipud iti pannakaibalud, ket agrag-onto ni Jacob ken agragsakto ti Israel.
I wish/desire that [Yahweh] would come from Jerusalem [MTY] and rescue [us] Israeli people! Yahweh, when you bless your people again, all of us Israeli people, who are the descendants of Jacob, will rejoice.
