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. [A Psalm] of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works; there is none that doeth 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 looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did 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 are all gone aside; they are together become filthy; there is none that doeth 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 the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.

5 Tusruk elos ac fah muta in sangeng lulap, Mweyen God El welulos na su aksol.

There were they in great fear: 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.

Ye put to shame the counsel of the poor, because 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 were come out of Zion! when the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, then shall Jacob rejoice, [and] Israel shall be glad.
