Псалтирь 53

1 В конец, о Маелефе, разума Давиду. Рече безумен в сердцы своем: несть Бог. Растлеша и омерзишася в беззакониих, несть творяй благое.

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 небесе приниче на сыны человеческия, видети, аще есть разумеваяй или взыскаяй Бога.

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

3 Вси уклонишася, вкупе непотребни быша: несть творяй благое, несть до единаго.

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

4 Ни ли уразумеют вси делающии беззаконие, снедающии люди моя в снедь хлеба? Господа не призваша.

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

5 Тамо устрашишася страха, идеже не бе страх: яко Бог разсыпа кости человекоугодников: постыдешася, яко Бог уничижи их.

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 Кто даст от Сиона спасение Израилево? Внегда возвратит Бог пленение людий Своих, возрадуется Иаков и возвеселится Израиль.

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