Psalmen 53
Het Boek
53 Een leerzaam gedicht van David voor de koordirigent. Op de wijs van ‘De rietpijp.’
2 Dwaze mensen denken dat God niet bestaat.
Ze doen vreselijk onrechtvaardige dingen.
Zelfs niet één ervan doet wat goed is.
3 God kijkt vanuit de hemel naar alle mensen.
Hij zoekt of er misschien één bij is die verstandig is,
wellicht één die God zoekt.
4 Maar allemaal hebben zij zich van Hem afgekeerd.
Allemaal hebben zij Hem verlaten,
niemand van hen doet goed, nog niet een.
5 Weten zij dan helemaal niets, al die zondaars?
Zij eten mijn volk op alsof het brood is.
Zij piekeren er niet over God aan te roepen.
6 Zij schrikken terwijl er niets te schrikken is.
God strooit de beenderen van uw vijanden uit,
u laat hen beschaamd staan.
God heeft hen al verworpen.
7 Wij zien uit naar de redding van Israël,
die vanuit Jeruzalem zal komen.
Wanneer God zijn volk redding biedt,
zal Jakob jubelen en Israël vol vreugde zijn.
Salmos 53
Nueva Versión Internacional
(A)Al director musical. Según majalat. Masquil de David.
53 Dice el necio en su corazón:
«No hay Dios».
Están corrompidos, sus injusticias son detestables;
¡no hay uno solo que haga lo bueno!
2 Desde el cielo Dios contempla a los mortales,
para ver si hay alguien
que sea sensato y busque a Dios.
3 Pero todos se han descarriado;
a una se han corrompido.
No hay nadie que haga lo bueno;
¡no hay uno solo!
4 ¿Acaso no tienen entendimiento esos malhechores,
esos que devoran a mi pueblo como si fuera pan?
¡Jamás invocan a Dios!
5 Allí los tienen, sobrecogidos de miedo,
cuando no hay nada que temer.
Dios dispersó los huesos de quienes te atacaban;
tú los avergonzaste, porque Dios los rechazó.
6 ¡Oh, si de Sión saliera la salvación de Israel!
Cuando Dios restaure a su pueblo,[a]
¡Jacob se regocijará, Israel se alegrará!

Psalm 53
New International Version
Psalm 53[a](A)
For the director of music. According to mahalath.[b] A maskil[c] of David.
1 The fool(B) says in his heart,
“There is no God.”(C)
They are corrupt, and their ways are vile;
there is no one who does good.
2 God looks down from heaven(D)
on all mankind
to see if there are any who understand,(E)
any who seek God.(F)
3 Everyone has turned away, all have become corrupt;
there is no one who does good,
not even one.(G)
4 Do all these evildoers know nothing?
They devour my people as though eating bread;
they never call on God.
5 But there they are, overwhelmed with dread,
where there was nothing to dread.(H)
God scattered the bones(I) of those who attacked you;(J)
you put them to shame,(K) for God despised them.(L)
6 Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!
When God restores his people,
let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!

Psalm 53
New King James Version
Folly of the Godless, and the Restoration of Israel(A)
To the Chief Musician. Set to “Mahalath.” A [a]Contemplation of David.
53 The (B)fool has said in his heart,
“There is no God.”
They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity;
(C)There is none who does good.
2 God looks down from heaven upon the children of men,
To see if there are any who understand, who (D)seek God.
3 Every one of them has turned aside;
They have together become corrupt;
There is none who does good,
No, not one.
4 Have the workers of iniquity (E)no knowledge,
Who eat up my people as they eat bread,
And do not call upon God?
5 (F)There they are 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 despised them.
6 (G)Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion!
When God brings back [b]the captivity of His people,
Let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad.
