Zaburi 53

1 Kwa mwimbishaji. Mtindo wa mahalathi. Utenzi wa Daudi. Mpumbavu anasema moyoni mwake, “Hakuna Mungu.” Wameharibika, na njia zao ni za uovu kabisa, hakuna hata mmoja atendaye mema.

Ki he Takimuʻa ʻi he Mahalati, ko e Saame akonaki ʻa Tevita. Kuo pehē ʻe he vale ʻi hono loto, “ʻOku ʻikai ha ʻOtua.” Kuo kovi ʻakinautolu, pea kuo nau fai ʻae kovi fakalielia: ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku fai lelei.

2 Mungu anawachungulia wanadamu chini kutoka mbinguni aone kama wako wenye akili, wowote wanaomtafuta Mungu.

Naʻe ʻafio hifo ʻae ʻOtua mei he langi ki he fānau ʻae tangata, ke vakai pe ʻoku ai ha niʻihi ʻoku ʻilo, mo kumi ki he ʻOtua.

3 Kila mmoja amegeukia mbali, wameharibika wote pamoja, hakuna atendaye mema. Naam, hakuna hata mmoja!

Kuo foki kotoa pē kimui ʻakinautolu: kuo nau hoko ʻo fakalielia kotoa pē: ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku fai lelei, ʻoku ʻikai ʻaupito ha taha.

4 Je, watendao mabaya kamwe hawatajifunza: wale ambao huwala watu wangu kama watu walavyo mkate, hao ambao hawamwiti Mungu?

“ʻOku ʻikai ha ʻilo ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku fai kovi? ʻAkinautolu ʻoku kai ʻo ʻosi hoku kakai ʻo hangē ko ʻenau kai mā: naʻe ʻikai te nau ui ki he ʻOtua.”

5 Hapo waliingiwa na hofu kuu, ambapo hapakuwa cha kutetemesha. Mungu alitawanya mifupa ya wale waliokushambulia; uliwaaibisha, kwa sababu Mungu aliwadharau.

Pea naʻe manavahē lahi ai ʻakinautolu, ka naʻe ʻikai ha meʻa ke manavahē ai: he kuo laku kehekehe ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ngaahi hui ʻo ia naʻa ne tauʻi koe: Kuo ke fakamaaʻi ʻakinautolu, he kuo fehiʻa ʻae ʻOtua kiate kinautolu.

6 Laiti wokovu wa Israeli ungalikuja kutoka Sayuni! Wakati Mungu arejeshapo wafungwa wa watu wake, Yakobo na ashangilie, Israeli na afurahi!

Ko hai te ne foaki mei Saione ʻae fakamoʻui ki ʻIsileli? ʻOka toe ʻomi ʻe he ʻOtua hono kakai kuo pōpula, ʻe fiefia ai ʻa Sēkope, pea nekeneka ʻa ʻIsileli.
