1 ପ୍ରଧାନ ବାଦ୍ୟକର ନିମନ୍ତେ ଦାଉଦଙ୍କର ଗୀତ। ମୂଢ଼ ମନେ ମନେ କହିଅଛି, “ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ନାହାନ୍ତି।” ସେମାନେ ଭ୍ରଷ୍ଟ, ସେମାନେ ଘୃଣାଯୋଗ୍ୟ କର୍ମ କରିଅଛନ୍ତି; ସୁକର୍ମକାରୀ କେହି ନାହିଁ।
Unto the end. A Psalm of David. The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They were corrupted, and they have become abominable in their studies. There is no one who does good; there is not even one.
2 ବିବେଚକ ଓ ପରମେଶ୍ୱରଙ୍କ ଅନ୍ୱେଷଣକାରୀ କେହି ଅଛି କି ନାହିଁ, ଏହା ଦେଖିବା ପାଇଁ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗରୁ ମନୁଷ୍ୟ-ସନ୍ତାନଗଣ ପ୍ରତି ନିରୀକ୍ଷଣ କରନ୍ତି।
The Lord has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any who were considering or seeking God.
3 ସେମାନେ ସମସ୍ତେ ବିପଥରେ ଯାଇଅଛନ୍ତି; ସେମାନେ ଏକତ୍ର ଅଶୁଚି ହୋଇଅଛନ୍ତି; ସୁକର୍ମକାରୀ କେହି ନାହିଁ, ନା, ଜଣେ ହେଁ ନାହିଁ।
They have all gone astray; together they have become useless. There is no one who does good; there is not even one. Their throat is an open sepulcher. With their tongues, they have been acting deceitfully; the venom of asps is under their lips. Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness. Their feet are swift to shed blood. Grief and unhappiness are in their ways; and the way of peace, they have not known. There is no fear of God before their eyes.
4 ଅଧର୍ମାଚାରୀ ସମସ୍ତଙ୍କର କି କିଛି ଜ୍ଞାନ ନାହିଁ? ସେମାନେ ମୋʼ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଆହାର ପରି ଗ୍ରାସ କରନ୍ତି ଓ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ନିକଟରେ ପ୍ରାର୍ଥନା କରନ୍ତି ନାହିଁ।
Will they never learn: all those who work iniquity, who devour my people like a meal of bread?
5 ସେଠାରେ ସେମାନେ ମହାଭୟଗ୍ରସ୍ତ ହୋଇଥିଲେ; କାରଣ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ଧାର୍ମିକ-ବଂଶ ମଧ୍ୟରେ ଅଛନ୍ତି।
They have not called upon the Lord. There, they have trembled in fear, where there was no fear.
6 ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଦୁଃଖୀର ମନ୍ତ୍ରଣାକୁ ଲଜ୍ଜାର ବିଷୟ କରୁଅଛ, ମାତ୍ର ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ତାହାର ଆଶ୍ରୟ ଅଟନ୍ତି।
For the Lord is with the just generation. You have confounded the counsel of the needy because the Lord is his hope.
7 ଆହା, ସିୟୋନଠାରୁ ଇସ୍ରାଏଲର ପରିତ୍ରାଣ ଉପସ୍ଥିତ ହେଉ! ଯଦି ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଆପଣା ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ବନ୍ଦୀତ୍ୱରୁ ଫେରାଇ ଆଣନ୍ତି ତେବେ ଯାକୁବ ଉଲ୍ଲାସ କରିବ ଓ ଇସ୍ରାଏଲ ଆନନ୍ଦିତ ହେବ।
Who will grant the salvation of Israel from Zion? When the Lord turns away the captivity of his people, Jacob will exult, and Israel will rejoice.
