Psalms 14

1 Fún adarí orin. Ti Dafidi. Aṣiwèrè wí nínú ọkàn rẹ̀ pé, “Ko sí Ọlọ́run.” Wọ́n díbàjẹ́, iṣẹ́ wọn sì burú; kò sí ẹnìkan tí yóò ṣe rere.

Unto the end. A Psalm of David. The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They were corrupted, and they have become abominable in their studies. There is no one who does good; there is not even one.

2 Olúwa sì bojú wolẹ̀ láti ọ̀run wá lórí àwọn ọmọ ènìyàn bóyá ó le rí ẹni tí òye yé, ẹnikẹ́ni tó ń wá Ọlọ́run.

The Lord has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any who were considering or seeking God.

3 Gbogbo wọn sì ti yípadà, gbogbo wọn sì ti díbàjẹ́; kò sì ṣí ẹni tí ó ń ṣe rere, kò sí ẹnìkan.

They have all gone astray; together they have become useless. There is no one who does good; there is not even one. Their throat is an open sepulcher. With their tongues, they have been acting deceitfully; the venom of asps is under their lips. Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness. Their feet are swift to shed blood. Grief and unhappiness are in their ways; and the way of peace, they have not known. There is no fear of God before their eyes.

4 Ǹjẹ́ olùṣe búburú kò ha ní ìmọ̀? Àwọn tí ó ń pa ènìyàn mi jẹ bí ẹní jẹun; wọn kò sì ké pe Olúwa?

Will they never learn: all those who work iniquity, who devour my people like a meal of bread?

5 Wọ́n wà níbẹ̀, tí a bò mọ́lẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ẹ̀rù, nítorí Ọlọ́run wà ní àwùjọ àwọn olódodo.

They have not called upon the Lord. There, they have trembled in fear, where there was no fear.

6 Ẹ̀yin olùṣe búburú da èrò àwọn tálákà rú, ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa ni ààbò wọn.

For the Lord is with the just generation. You have confounded the counsel of the needy because the Lord is his hope.

7 Ìgbàlà àwọn Israẹli yóò ti Sioni wá! Nígbà tí Olúwa bá mú ìkólọ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ padà, jẹ́ kí Jakọbu kí ó yọ̀, kí inú Israẹli kí ó dùn!

Who will grant the salvation of Israel from Zion? When the Lord turns away the captivity of his people, Jacob will exult, and Israel will rejoice.
