Psalmi 14

1 Bedak je rekel v svojem srcu: »Ni Boga.« Izprijeni so, počeli so gnusna dela, nikogar ni, ki dela dobro.

To the chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They have corrupted themselves, they have done abominable works: there is none that doeth good.

2 Gospod je pogledal dol z neba na človeške otroke, da vidi, ali obstaja kdorkoli, ki je razumel in išče Boga.

Jehovah looked down from the heavens upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.

3 Vsi so odšli vstran, vsi skupaj so postali pokvarjeni. Nikogar ni, ki dela dobro, ne, niti enega ni.

They have all gone aside, they are together become corrupt: there is none that doeth good, not even one.

4 Mar vsi delavci krivičnosti nimajo spoznanja? Ki žro moje ljudstvo, kakor jedo kruh, pa ne kličejo h Gospodu?

Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, eating up my people [as] they eat bread? They call not upon Jehovah.

5 Bili so v velikem strahu, kajti Bog je z rodom pravičnih.

There were they in great fear; for God is in the generation of the righteous.

6 Sramotili ste nasvet siromašnega, zato ker je Gospod njegovo pribežališče.

Ye have shamed the counsel of the afflicted, because Jehovah [was] his refuge.

7 Oh, da bi Izraelova rešitev duš prišla iz Siona! Ko Gospod privede nazaj ujete svojega ljudstva, se bo Jakob veselil in Izrael bo vesel.

Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When Jehovah turneth again the captivity of his people, Jacob shall be glad, Israel shall rejoice.
