¹Ang mangmang ay nagsabi sa puso niya, Walang Dios. Nangapahamak sila, at nagsigawa ng kasuklamsuklam na kasamaan; walang gumawa ng mabuti.

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.

²Tinunghan ng Dios ang mga anak ng mga tao mula sa langit, upang tignan kung may sinomang nakakaunawa, na humanap sa Dios.

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

³Bawa't isa sa kanila ay tumalikod: sila'y magkakasamang naging mahahalay; walang gumawa ng mabuti, wala, wala kahit isa.

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

⁴Wala bang kaalaman ang mga manggagawa ng kasamaan? na siyang kumakain ng aking bayan na tila kumakain ng tinapay, at hindi nagsisitawag sa Dios.

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

⁵Doo'y nangapasa malaking katakutan sila na hindi kinaroroonan ng takot: sapagka't pinangalat ng Dios ang mga buto niya na humahantong laban sa iyo; iyong inilagay sila sa kahihiyan, sapagka't itinakuwil sila ng Dios.

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.

⁶Oh kung ang kaligtasan ng Israel ay lumabas sa Sion. Pagka ibabalik ng Dios ang nangabihag ng kaniyang bayan, magagalak nga ang Jacob at matutuwa ang Israel.

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.
