53 ¶ (53:1) Pou chèf sanba yo. Fè yo chante ansanm, tankou timoun lekòl. Se yon sòm David. (53:2) Moun fou di nan kè yo: -Pa gen Bondye! Yo tout fin pouri. Y'ap fè yon bann mechanste. Pa gen yonn ki fè sa ki byen.

(53:3) Bondye rete nan syèl la, l'ap gade lèzòm anba, pou l' wè si gen ladan yo ki gen konprann, si gen ladan yo k'ap chache l'.

(53:4) Men, yo tout vire do bay Bondye. Yo tout yo mete tèt ansanm pou fè sa ki mal. Pa gen yonn ladan yo k'ap fè sa ki byen, non, pa menm gen yon sèl ladan yo.

(53:5) Bondye di: -Moun sa yo k'ap fè mechanste, se konnen yo pa konnen? Yo rete, y'ap souse pèp mwen an pou yo ka viv. Pa gen yonn ladan yo ki rele non mwen.

(53:6) Men tou, yo pral sezi, yo pral tranble, san pa gen rezon pou yo tranble. Men Bondye pral gaye zo tout lènmi ou yo, w'ap fè yo wont, paske Bondye lage yo.

(53:7) Oo! Kilè Bondye va soti sou mòn Siyon an pou l' delivre pèp Izrayèl li a? Lè Bondye va fè pèp li a kanpe ankò, pitit pitit Jakòb yo pral fè fèt. Se vre wi, pèp Izrayèl la pral kontan.

Psalm 53[a](A)

For the director of music. According to mahalath.[b] A maskil[c] of David.

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.

God looks down from heaven(D)
    on all mankind
to see if there are any who understand,(E)
    any who seek God.(F)
Everyone has turned away, all have become corrupt;
    there is no one who does good,
    not even one.(G)

Do all these evildoers know nothing?

They devour my people as though eating bread;
    they never call on God.
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)

Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!
    When God restores his people,
    let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!
