1Benzi rakati mumoyo maro, Mwari haako. Vakaora, vakabata mabasa anonyangadza; Hapana anoita zvakanaka.
1The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
2Jehovha ari kudenga, akatarira pasi kuvana vavanhu, Kuti aone kana akachenjera aripo, Anotsvaka Mwari.
2The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.
3Vakatsauka vose, vakasvibiswa pamwechete; Hapana anoita zvakanaka, kunyange nomumwe.
3They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4Ko vaiti vose vezvakaipa havana zivo here? Ivo vanodya vanhu vangu sezvavanodya chingwa, Vasingadani kuna Jehovha.
4Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.
5Vakanga vachitya zvikuru ipapo; nekuti Mwari anogara parudzi rwavakarurama.
5There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.
6Munonyadzisa zano romurombo, Asi Jehovha ndiye utiziro hwake.
6Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.
7Dai kuponeswa kwalsiraeri kwaibva paZiyoni! Kana Jehovha achidzosa vanhu vake pakutapwa, Ipapo Jakove achafarisisa kwazvo, naIsiraeri achafara.
7Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
