Mga Awit 14

1 Ang mangmang ay nagsabi sa kaniyang puso, walang Dios: sila'y nangapapahamak, sila'y nagsigawa ng kasuklamsuklam na mga gawa; walang gumagawa ng mabuti,

To the chief music-maker. 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 Tinutunghan ng Panginoon ang mga anak ng mga tao mula sa langit, upang tingnan, kung may sinomang nakakaunawa, na hinahanap ng Dios.

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

3 Silang lahat ay nagsihiwalay; sila'y magkakasama na naging kahalayhalay; walang gumagawa ng mabuti, wala, wala kahit isa.

They have all gone out of the way together; they are unclean, there is not one who does good, no, not one.

4 Wala bang kaalaman ang lahat na manggagawa ng kasamaan? na siyang nagsisikain sa aking bayan na tila nagsisikain ng tinapay, at hindi nagsisitawag sa Panginoon.

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

5 Doo'y nangapasa malaking katakutan (sila) sapagka't ang Dios ay nasa lahi ng matuwid.

Then were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the upright.

6 Inyong inilalagay sa kahihiyan ang payo ng dukha, sapagka't ang Panginoon ang kaniyang kanlungan.

You have put to shame the thoughts of the poor, but the Lord is his support.

7 Oh kung ang kaligtasan ng Israel ay nanggagaling sa Sion! Kung ibabalik ng Panginoon ang nangabihag ng kaniyang bayan, magagalak nga ang Jacob, at masasayahan ang Israel.

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