Psalmi 14

1 Načelniku godbe; Davidova. Nespametni govori v srci svojem: Ni ga Boga: pohujšujejo, ostudna dela doprinašajo, ni ga, da bi delal dobro.

For the leader. Of David. Fools say in their heart, ‘There is no God.’ Vile, hateful their life is; not one does good.

2 Gospod gleda z nebes na sinove človeške, da bi videl, je li kateri, ki bi bil razumen, ki bi iskal Boga.

From heaven the Lord looks out on humans, to see if any are wise, and care for God.

3 Vsak je odstopil, izpridili so se vsi vkup; ni ga, da bi delal dobro, enega samega ne.

But all have turned bad, the taint is on all; not one does good, no, not one.

4 Ali si niso v svesti vsi, kateri delajo krivico, ker žró ljudstvo moje kruh jedóč, ne kličejo Gospoda?

Have they learned their lesson, those workers of evil? Who ate up my people, eating, devouring, never calling to the Lord.

5 Tu se preplašijo od groze, ker Bog je na strani pravičnemu rodu.

Sore afraid will they be; for God is among those who are righteous,

6 Naklep siromaka ubozega bodete osramotili, seveda! ker Gospod je zavetje njegovo.

you may mock the plans of the poor, but the Lord is their refuge.

7 Kdo naj dá rešenje sè Sijona Izraelu? Ko bode nazaj peljal iz sužnjosti ljudstva svojega krdelo, radoval se bode Jakob, veselil se Izrael.

If only help from Zion would come for Israel! When the Lord brings his people a change of fortune, how glad will be Jacob, and Israel how joyful!
