|
1 |
The fool has said in
his heart, “There is no God.”
They are corrupt, they have committed abominable deeds;
There is no one who does good.
|
|
|
2 |
The LORD has looked
down from heaven upon the sons of men
To see if there are any who understand,
Who seek after God.
|
|
3 |
They have all turned
aside, together they have become corrupt;
There is no one who does good, not even one.
|
|
4 |
Do all the workers
of wickedness not know,
Who eat up my people as they eat bread,
And do not call upon the Lord?
|
|
5 |
There they are in
great dread,
For God is with the righteous generation.
|
|
6 |
You would put to
shame the counsel of the afflicted,
But the LORD is his refuge.
|
|
7 |
Oh, that the
salvation of Israel would come out of Zion!
When the LORD restores His captive people,
Jacob will rejoice, Israel will be glad.
