Псалми 53

1 Рече безумник у срцу свом: Нема Бога; проневаљалише се и загрдеше у безакоњу, нема никога добро да твори.

For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Mahalath.” A contemplation by David. The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity. There is no one who does good.

2 Бог с неба погледа на синове човечије да види има ли који разуман, и тражи ли који Бога.

God looks down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there are any who understood, who seek after God.

3 Сви застранише, сви се покварише, нема никога добро да твори, нема ни једног.

Every one of them has gone back. They have become filthy together. There is no one who does good, no, not one.

4 Зар неће да се оразуме који год чине безакоње, једу народ мој као што једу хлеб, и не призивају Бога?

Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and don’t call on God?

5 Дрхтаће од страха где страха нема. Јер ће Бог расути кости оних који устају на тебе. Ти ћеш их посрамити, јер их Бог одврже.

There they were in great fear, where no fear was, for God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you. You have put them to shame, because God has rejected them.

6 Ко ће послати са Сиона спасење Израиљу? Кад Бог поврати заробљени народ свој, радоваће се Јаков, веселиће се Израиљ.

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