< Psalm 14 >
1 [Psalm lal David] Mwet lalfon elos fahk insialos, “Wangin God!” Elos nukewa koluklana, Ac elos oru ma na srungayuk; Wangin sie selos oru ma suwohs.
[For the Chief Musician. By David.] The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt. They do abominable works. There is none who does good.
2 LEUM GOD El muta inkusrao ac ngeti nu fin mwet uh In liye lah oasr mwet lalmwetmet, Ku oasr mwet alu nu sel.
The LORD looks down from heaven on the descendants of Adam, to see if there are any who are wise, who seek after God.
3 Tusruktu, elos nukewa kuhfla liki inkanek pwaye; Mwet nukewa oana sie ke koluk lalos. Wangin sie selos oru ma suwohs, Tia siefanna.
They have all turned away. They have together become corrupt. There is no one who does good, no, not one.
4 LEUM GOD El siyuk, “Ya elos tia etu? Ya pwaye mwet orekma koluk inge nukewa wangin nanka? Elos moulkin ma elos pisre sin mwet luk, Ac elos tiana pre nu sik.”
Have all evildoers no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread? They do not call on the LORD.
5 Tusruk elos ac fah muta in sangeng lulap, Mweyen God El welulos na su aksol.
There they are utterly terrified, for God is in the generation of the righteous.
6 Mwet orekma koluk elos akfohsye pwapa lun mwet pusisel, Tusruktu LEUM GOD El nien molela lalos.
You would frustrate the plans of the lowly, but the LORD is his refuge.
7 Nga arulana pre tuh kutangla In tuku nu sin mwet Israel Zion me. Ac fuka lupan engan lun mwet Israel Ke LEUM GOD El ac sifilpa akkasrupyalos!
Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion. When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people, may Jacob rejoice, may Israel be glad.
