3Every one of them has turned aside; together they have become corrupt; There is no one who does good, not even one.3Everyone has turned away, all have become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.
4Have the workers of wickedness no knowledge, Who eat up My people as though they ate bread And have not called upon God?4Do all these evildoers know nothing? They devour my people as though eating bread; they never call on God.
5There they were in great fear where no fear had been; For God scattered the bones of him who encamped against you; You put them to shame, because God had rejected them.5But there they are, overwhelmed with dread, where there was nothing to dread. God scattered the bones of those who attacked you; you put them to shame, for God despised them.
6Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion! When God restores His captive people, Let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.6Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When God restores his people, let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!
