¹Laulujuhatajale: kurval viisil laulda; Taaveti õpetuslaul.

¹The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity. There is no one who does good.

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

²God looks down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there are any who understood, who seek after God.

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

³Every one of them has gone back. They have become filthy together. There is no one who does good, no, not one.

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

⁴Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and don’t call on God?

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

⁵There they were in great fear, where no fear was, for God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you. You have put them to shame, because God has rejected them.

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.

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

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