(A special psalm by David for the music leader. To the tune “Mahalath.” )
No One Can Ignore God
1 Only a fool would say,
“There is no God!”
People like that are worthless!
They are heartless and cruel
and never do right.
2 From heaven God
looks down to see
if anyone is wise enough
to search for him.
3 But all of them
are crooked and corrupt.
Not one of them does right.
4 Won't you lawbreakers learn?
You refuse to pray,
and you gobble up
the people of God.
5 But you will be terrified
worse than ever before.
God will scatter the bones
of his enemies,
and you will be ashamed
when God rejects you.
6 I long for someone from Zion
to come and save Israel!
Our God, when you bless
your people again,
Jacob's family will be glad,
and Israel will celebrate.
Uukolokoshi waantu
(Eps. 14)Oshitewo shaDavid
1 Aagoya otaa ilombwele taa ti: “Kaku na Kalunga!”
Aantu mbaka oya shunduka noya longo omasithahoni;
kaku na nando ogumwe ta longo uuwanawa.
2 Kalunga oku li megulu noto ontamene aantu kombanda yevi,
opo a tale, ngele oku na omunandunge
nongele oku na nando ogumwe te mu simaneke.
3 Ihe ayehe oya puguma; ayehe oya yonana.
Kaku na nando gumwe ta longo shoka shi li mondjila,
nando ogumwe.
4 “Aakolokoshi mbaka inaye shi tseya nani?” Kalunga ta pula.
“Oyo haa hupu mokuyuga aantu yandje
yo ihaa galikana ndje.”
5 Oyo taa ka adhika kehaluko enene inaaye li mona nale,
oshoka Kalunga ota ka halakanitha iipongo yaambo ye tonde aantu ye.
Kalunga okwe ya ekelehi,
naIsrael ote ke ya sinda thilu.
6 Ando muSion mu zile Israel ekwatho!
Uuna Omuwa ta ka hepulutha natango aantu ye,
nena Aaisraeli otaa ka nyanyukwa ngiini!
