< Salmi 14 >
1 Al Capo de’ musici. Di Davide. Lo stolto ha detto nel suo cuore: Non c’è Dio. Si sono corrotti, si son resi abominevoli nella loro condotta; non v’è alcuno che faccia il bene.
For the end, Psalm of David. The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They have corrupted [themselves], and become abominable in their devices; there is none that does goodness, there is not even so much as one.
2 L’Eterno ha riguardato dal cielo sui figliuoli degli uomini per vedere se vi fosse alcuno che avesse intelletto, che cercasse Iddio.
The Lord looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any that understood, or sought after god.
3 Tutti si sono sviati, tutti quanti si son corrotti, non v’è alcuno che faccia il bene, neppur uno.
They are all gone out of the way, they are together become good for nothing, there is none that does good, no not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness; their feet are swift to shed blood: destruction and misery are in their ways; and the way of peace they have not known: there is no fear of God before their eyes.
4 Son essi senza conoscenza tutti questi operatori d’iniquità, che mangiano il mio popolo come mangiano il pane e non invocano l’Eterno?
Will not all the workers of iniquity know, who eat up my people as they would eat bread? they have not called upon the Lord.
5 Ecco là, son presi da grande spavento perché Iddio è con la gente giusta.
There were they alarmed with fear, where there was no fear; for God is in the righteous generation.
6 Voi, invece, fate onta al consiglio del misero, perché l’Eterno è il suo rifugio.
You have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the Lord is his hope.
7 Oh, chi recherà da Sion la salvezza d’Israele? Quando l’Eterno ritrarrà dalla cattività il suo popolo, Giacobbe festeggerà, Israele si rallegrerà.
Who will bring the salvation of Israel out of Sion? when the Lord brings back the captivity of his people, let Jacob exult, and Israel be glad.
