Salmos 53

1 Dijo el insensato en su corazón: No hay Dios; corrompiéronse, e hicieron abominable maldad: no hay quien haga bien.

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 Dios desde los cielos miró sobre los hijos de Adam: por ver si hay algún entendido, que busque a Dios.

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

3 Cada uno se había vuelto atrás, a una se habían dañado: no hay quien haga bien, no hay ni aun uno.

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

4 No tienen conocimiento todos los que obran iniquidad, que comen a mi pueblo como si comiesen pan: a Dios no invocan,

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

5 Allí se despavorieron de pavor donde no había pavor: porque Dios esparció los huesos del que asentó campo contra ti: avergonzáste los, porque Dios los desechó.

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 ¿Quién diese de Sión saludes a Israel? En volviendo Dios la cautividad de su pueblo, regocijarse ha Jacob, y alegrarse ha Israel.

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.
