< Psalmi 14 >
1 Dāvida dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim. Ģeķi saka savā sirdī Dieva nav; tie ir samaitājušies un sagānījušies ar savu darbošanos, neviena nav, kas labu dara.
For the Leader. A Psalm of David. The fool hath said in his heart: 'There is no God'; they have dealt corruptly, they have done abominably; there is none that doeth good.
2 Tas Kungs skatās no debesīm uz cilvēku bērniem, raudzīt, vai jel kas būtu prātīgs, kas meklē Dievu.
The LORD looked forth from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any man of understanding, that did seek after God.
3 Bet tie visi atkāpušies, visnotaļ smirdoši tapuši, neviena nav, kas labu dara, nav it neviena.
They are all corrupt, they are together become impure; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4 Vai tad nav nekādas atzīšanas tiem ļauna darītājiem, kas ēd manus ļaudis, tā kā ēd maizi, bet To Kungu tie nepiesauc?
'Shall not all the workers of iniquity know it, who eat up My people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD?'
5 Tad tie bīdamies izbīstas, jo Dievs ir pie tās taisnās cilts.
There are they in great fear; for God is with the righteous generation.
6 Jūs nievājat nabaga padomu, bet Tas Kungs ir viņa patvērums.
Ye would put to shame the counsel of the poor, but the LORD is his refuge.
7 Ak! Kaut no Ciānas nāktu Israēla pestīšana! Kad Tas Kungs atkal atved Savus cietuma ļaudis, tad Jēkabs priecāsies un Israēls līksmosies.
Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When the LORD turneth the captivity of His people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.
