Translation by Bible or other Sacred Texts
Psalmus 52 (53)
Language: Latin
1 [In finem, pro Maëleth intelligentiæ David.] Dixit insipiens in corde suo: Non est Deus. 2 Corrupti sunt, et abominabiles facti sunt in iniquitatibus; non est qui faciat bonum. 3 Deus de cælo prospexit super filios hominum, ut videat si est intelligens, aut requirens Deum. 4 Omnes declinaverunt; simul inutiles facti sunt: non est qui faciat bonum, non est usque ad unum. 5 Nonne scient omnes qui operantur iniquitatem, qui devorant plebem meam ut cibum panis? 6 Deum non invocaverunt; illic trepidaverunt timore, ubi non erat timor. Quoniam Deus dissipavit ossa eorum qui hominibus placent: confusi sunt, quoniam Deus sprevit eos. 7 Quis dabit ex Sion salutare Israël? cum converterit Deus captivitatem plebis suæ, exsultabit Jacob, et lætabitur Israël.]

Psalm 52 (53)
Language: English  after the Latin
1 [Unto the end, for Maeleth, understandings to David.] The fool said in his heart: There is no God. 2 They are corrupted, and become abominable in iniquities: there is none that doth good. 3 God looked down from heaven on the children of men: to see if there were any that did understand, or did seek God. 4 All have gone aside, they are become unprofitable together, there is none that doth good, no not one. 5 Shall not all the workers of iniquity know, who eat up my people as they eat bread? 6 They have not called upon God: there have they trembled for fear, where there was no fear. For God hath scattered the bones of them that please men: they have been confounded, because God hath despised them. 7 Who will give out of Sion the salvation of Israel? when God shall bring back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
