| 1 | {To the chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David.} The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They have corrupted themselves, they have done abominable works: there is none that doeth good. |
| 2 | Jehovah looked down from the heavens upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God. |
| 3 | They have all gone aside, they are together become corrupt: there is none that doeth good, not even one. |
| 4 | Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, eating up my people [as] they eat bread? They call not upon Jehovah. |
| 5 | There were they in great fear; for God is in the generation of the righteous. |
| 6 | Ye have shamed the counsel of the afflicted, because Jehovah [was] his refuge. |
| 7 | Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When Jehovah turneth again the captivity of his people, Jacob shall be glad, Israel shall rejoice. |
