- 1
- ¶ THE fool has said in his heart, There is no God.
They are corrupt, they have been defiled by their own devices; there is none that does good.
- 2
- The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men to see if there were any that did understand and seek God.
- 3
- They are all gone astray and have been rejected all together;
there is none that does good; no, not one.
- 4
- ¶ They recognized not the workers of iniquity, who devour my people as one eats bread;
and they called not upon the LORD.
- 5
- There were they in great fear;
for God is in the generation of the righteous.
- 6
- They have reproached the counsel of the poor, because he trusts on the LORD.
- 7
- Who shall give out of Zion the salvation to Israel?
When the LORD brings back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice and Israel shall be glad.
