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.

¹Náčelníkovi speváckeho sboru na nápev: Machlat čiže Tambura. Vyučujúci žalm Dávidov.

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

²Blázon hovorí vo svojom srdci: Neni Boha. Zkazení sú a páchajú ohavnú neprávosť. Neni toho, kto by robil dobré.

³Every one of them is gone back, they are together become corrupt: there is none that doeth good, not even one.

³Bôh pozorujúc hľadel z nebies na synov človeka, aby videl, či je niekto rozumný medzi nimi, hľadajúci Boha.

⁴Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, eating up my people [as] they eat bread? they call not upon God.

⁴Všetci dovedna sa obrátili zpät; zkazení sú; neni toho, kto by robil dobré, neni ani jedného.

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.

⁵Či toho nevedia činitelia neprávosti, ktorí zjedajú môj ľud, ako jedia chlieb, a na Boha nevolajú?

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.

⁶Tam sa raz budú náramne desiť, kde nie je sa čoho desiť, pretože Bôh rozmece kosti tých, ktorí ťa obľahli táborom. Zahanbíš ich, lebo ich Bôh zavrhol.

⁷Bárs by bolo dané spasenie Izraelovi so Siona! Keď navráti Bôh zajatých svojho ľudu, plesať bude Jakob, bude sa radovať Izrael.
