לַמְנַצֵּחַ לְדָוִד אָמַר נָבָל בְּלִבּוֹ אֵין אֱלֹהִים הִשְׁחִיתוּ הִתְעִיבוּ עֲלִילָה אֵין עֹשֵׂה טוֹב:
For the conductor, of David; The fool said in his heart; they have dealt corruptly; they have committed abominable deeds; no one does good.
יְהוָה מִשָּׁמַיִם הִשְׁקִיף עַל בְּנֵי אָדָם לִרְאוֹת הֲיֵשׁ מַשְׂכִּיל דֹּרֵשׁ אֶת אֱלֹהִים:
The Lord in Heaven looked down upon the sons of men to see whether there is a man of understanding, who seeks the Lord.
הַכֹּל סָר יַחְדָּו נֶאֱלָחוּ אֵין עֹשֵׂה טוֹב אֵין גַּם אֶחָד:
All have turned away; together they have spoiled; no one does good, not even one.
הֲלֹא יָדְעוּ כָּל פֹּעֲלֵי אָוֶן אֹכְלֵי עַמִּי אָכְלוּ לֶחֶם יְהוָה לֹא קָרָאוּ:
Did not all the workers of iniquity know? Those who devoured My people partook of a feast; they did not call upon the Lord.
שָׁם פָּחֲדוּ פָחַד כִּי אֱלֹהִים בְּדוֹר צַדִּיק:
There they were in great fear, for God is in the generation of a righteous man.
עֲצַת עָנִי תָבִישׁוּ כִּי יְהוָה מַחְסֵהוּ:
You put to shame the counsel of the poor, for the Lord is his refuge.
מִי יִתֵּן מִצִּיּוֹן יְשׁוּעַת יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּשׁוּב יְהוָה שְׁבוּת עַמּוֹ יָגֵל יַעֲקֹב יִשְׂמַח יִשְׂרָאֵל:
O that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion; when the Lord returns the captivity of His people, Jacob shall rejoice, Israel shall be glad.
