Salmos 53

1 El necio ha dicho en su corazón: no hay Dios. Se han corrompido, han hecho malas obras; no hay uno que haga el bien.

To the chief music-maker; put to Mahalath. Maschil. Of David. The foolish man has said in his heart, God will not do anything. They are unclean, they have done evil works; there is not one who does good.

2 Dios estaba mirando desde los cielos a los hijos de los hombres, para ver si había alguno que tuviese sabiduría, buscando a Dios.

God was looking down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there were any who had wisdom, searching after God.

3 Todos ellos han regresado; se han corrompido: no hay quien haga el bien, no, no uno.

Every one of them has gone back; they are unclean: there is not one who does good, no, not one.

4 ¿No tienen conocimiento todos los hacedores del mal, que devoran a mi pueblo como si fuera pan, y a Dios no invocan?

Have the workers of evil no knowledge? they take my people for food, as they would take bread; they make no prayer to God.

5 Tenían gran temor, donde no había motivo para temer: porque los huesos de los que te hacen la guerra han sido quebrantados por Dios; los has avergonzado, porque Dios no los deshecho.

They were in great fear, where there was no cause for fear: for the bones of those who make war on you have been broken by God; you have put them to shame, because God has no desire for them.

6 ¡Que la salvación de Israel salga de Sión! Cuando Dios hiciere volver de la cautividad a su pueblo, Jacob se alegrará e Israel se alegrará.

May the salvation of Israel come out of Zion! When the fate of his people is changed by God, Jacob will have joy, and Israel will be glad.
