1{To the chief Musician. On Mahalath: an instruction. Of David.} The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God! They have corrupted themselves, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.
1[Ny faharatsian'ny olona sy ny faniriam-pamonjena] Ho an'ny mpiventy hira. Al-mahalath. Maskila nataon'i Davida. Ny adala manao anakampo hoe: tsy misy Andriamanitra. Manao izay ratsy sy vetaveta izy, tsy misy manao ny tsara.
2God looked down from the heavens upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
2Eny an-danitra Andriamanitra miondrika mijery ny zanak'olombelona, mba hizaha na misy hendry mitady an'Andriamanitra.
3Every one of them is gone back, they are together become corrupt: there is none that doeth good, not even one.
3Samy efa nivily izy rehetra ka tonga vetaveta avokoa; tsy misy manao ny tsara, na dia iray akory aza.
4Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, eating up my people [as] they eat bread? they call not upon God.
4Tsy mahalala va ny mpanao ratsy, izay mihinana ny oloko toy ny fihinan-kanina, ary Andriamanitra tsy antsoiny?
5There were they in great fear, where no fear was; for God scattereth the bones of him that encampeth against thee. Thou hast put [them] to shame, for God hath despised them.
5Indreo, matahotra dia matahotra ireny, nefa tsy nisy tokony hatahorany; fa Andriamanitra efa nanely ny taolan'izay nitoby hamely anao; nampahamenatra azy ianao, satria efa narian'Andriamanitra izy.Enga anie ka hivoaka avy ao Ziona ny famonjena ny Isiraely! raha ampodin'Andriamanitra avy amin'ny fahababoana ny olony, dia ho faly Jakoba, ary ho ravoravo Isiraely.
6Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God turneth again the captivity of his people, Jacob shall be glad, Israel shall rejoice.
6Enga anie ka hivoaka avy ao Ziona ny famonjena ny Isiraely! raha ampodin'Andriamanitra avy amin'ny fahababoana ny olony, dia ho faly Jakoba, ary ho ravoravo Isiraely.
