1 Fools say to themselves, |There is no God.| They are corrupt and commit evil deeds; not one of them practices what is 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 looks down from the heavens upon humanity to see if anyone shows discernment as he searches for 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 have turned away, together they have become corrupt; no one practices what is good, not even 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 Will those who do evil ever learn? They devour my people like they devour bread, and never call on 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 are seized with terror, because God is with those who are righteous. 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 would frustrate the plans of the oppressed, but the LORD is their refuge. 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 May Israel's deliverance come from Zion! When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people, Jacob will rejoice, and Israel will 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!
