¹The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.

¹Laulujuhatajale: kurval viisil laulda; Taaveti õpetuslaul.

²God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.

²Meeletu ütleb oma südames: 'Jumalat ei ole!' Nad talitavad riivatult ja jõledasti, ei ole kedagi, kes head teeb.

³Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

³Jumal vaatab taevast inimlaste peale, et näha, kas on mõistlikku, kedagi, kes otsib Jumalat.

⁴Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread: they have not called upon God.

⁴Kõik nad on taganenud, üheskoos on nad läinud raisku; ei ole kedagi, kes head teeb, mitte ühtainustki.

⁵There were they in great fear, where no fear was: for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee: thou hast put them to shame, because God hath despised them.

⁵Kas seda siis ei mõista need, kes teevad nurjatust, kes söövad mu rahvast, nagu süüakse leiba? Jumala poole nad ei hüüa.

⁶Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

⁶Seal valdab neid hirm, kus ei ole hirmu põhjust, sest Jumal pillab laiali selle luud, kes seab leeri sinu vastu. Sa saadad nad häbisse, sest Jumal on nad hüljanud.

⁷Oh, et Iisraelile tuleks pääste Siionist! Kui Jumal oma rahva vangipõlve pöörab, siis hakkab Jaakob ilutsema, Iisrael saab rõõmsaks.
