Salamo 14

1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Nataon’ i Davida.

For the chief musician. A psalm of David. A fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt and have done abominable iniquity; there is no one who does good.

2 Eny an-danitra Jehovah miondrika mijery ny zanak’ olombelona, mba hizaha na misy hendry mitady an’ Andriamanitra.

Yahweh looks down from heaven on the children of mankind to see if there are any who understand, who seek after him.

3 Samy efa nivily izy rehetra ka tonga vetaveta avokoa; tsy misy manao ny tsara, na dia iray akory aza.

They have all turned away. Together they have become corrupt. There is no one who does good, no, not one.

4 Tsy mahalala va ny mpanao ratsy rehetra, izay mihinana ny oloko toy ny fihinan-kanina, ary Jehovah tsy antsoiny?

Do they not know anything, those who commit iniquity, those who eat up my people as they eat bread, but who do not call on Yahweh?

5 Indreo, matahotra dia matahotra izy, satria Andriamanitra no eo amin’ ny taranaka marina.

They tremble with dread, for God is with the righteous assembly!

6 Na dia foananareo aza ny fisainan’ ny ory, Jehovah kosa no arony.

You want to humiliate the poor person even though Yahweh is his refuge.

7 Enga anie ka hivoaka avy ao Ziona ny famonjena ny Isiraely! Raha ampodin’ i Jehovah avy amin’ ny fahababoana ny olony, dia ho faly Jakoba, ary ho ravoravo Isiraely.

Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come from Zion! When Yahweh brings back his people from the captivity, then Jacob will rejoice and Israel will be glad!
