Ouvi wovandu
(Psa 14)Komuimburise otja kombosiro yo Mahalat. Epsalme ra David.
1 Ovandu omayova ve rihungirira nai:
“Kaku na Ndjambi.”
Owo va zunḓaka nu ovitjitwa vyawo ovivi
kape na umwe wawo ngu tjita ousemba.
2 Ndjambi u tara kovandu okuza meyuru,
okutara kutja pena umwe omunazondunge,
ngu rikotamena ku ye.
3 Nungwari avehe va poka ku ye,
nu va zunḓaka pupeṱa;
kape na umwe ngu tjita ousemba,
nangarire umwe ke po.
4 Ndjambi ma pura nai:
“Kave nokutjiwa are?
Ovatjite vouvi avehe mba kave nozondunge are?
Owo ve punda otjiwaṋa tjandje
tjimuna mave ri omboroto,
nu kave kumbu ku ami.”
5 Nungwari owo mave urumisiwa
komeho yaindu rutenga,
orondu Ndjambi ma rimbi omaṱupa
wovanavita notjiwaṋa tje.
Ndjambi we ve nakaura,
nu komuhingo mbwi Israel otji
matji ve havere okumana.
6 Andakuzu Ndjambi ma eta
ombatero kOvaisrael okuza kOsion!
Tjiri, Ovaisrael mave yoroka,
Ndjambi tje ve ṋingaparisa rukwao!
(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.
