1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. The foole hath said in his heart, There is no God: they haue corrupted, & done an abominable worke: there is none that doeth good. The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds; there is none who does good. For the director of music. Of David. The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good.
2 The Lord looked downe from heauen vpon the children of men, to see if there were any that would vnderstand, and seeke God. The LORD looks down from heaven on the children of man, to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God. The LORD looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God.
3 All are gone out of the way: they are all corrupt: there is none that doeth good, no not one. They have all turned aside; together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one. All have turned away, all have become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.
4 Doe not all the workers of iniquitie know that they eate vp my people, as they eate bread? They call not vpon the Lord. Have they no knowledge, all the evildoers who eat up my people as they eat bread and do not call upon the LORD? Do all these evildoers know nothing? They devour my people as though eating bread; they never call on the LORD.
5 There they shall be taken with feare, because God is in the generation of the iust. There they are in great terror, for God is with the generation of the righteous. But there they are, overwhelmed with dread, for God is present in the company of the righteous.
6 You haue made a mocke at the counsell of the poore, because the Lord is his trust. You would shame the plans of the poor, but the LORD is his refuge. You evildoers frustrate the plans of the poor, but the LORD is their refuge.
7 Oh giue saluation vnto Israel out of Zion: when the Lorde turneth the captiuitie of his people, then Iaakob shall reioyce, and Israel shall be glad. Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad. Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When the LORD restores his people, let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!
