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 of the music. A psalm of David.” The fool saith in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt; abominable are their doings; There is none that doeth good.

2 Tas Kungs skatās no debesīm uz cilvēku bērniem, raudzīt, vai jel kas būtu prātīgs, kas meklē Dievu.

Jehovah looketh down from heaven upon the children of men, To see if there are any that have understanding, That have regard to God.

3 Bet tie visi atkāpušies, visnotaļ smirdoši tapuši, neviena nav, kas labu dara, nav it neviena.

They are all gone out of the way; together are they corrupt; 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 the evil-doers be requited, Who devour my people like bread, And call not upon Jehovah?

5 Tad tie bīdamies izbīstas, jo Dievs ir pie tās taisnās cilts.

Yea, then shall they be in great fear; For Jehovah is with the race of the righteous.

6 Jūs nievājat nabaga padomu, bet Tas Kungs ir viņa patvērums.

Ye would put to shame the counsel of the poor; But Jehovah is their 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 salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When Jehovah bringeth back the captives of his people, Then shall Jacob rejoice, and Israel be glad.
