	BISHOPS Bishops' Bible of 1568	ESV English Standard Version	NIV New International Version
1	To the chiefe musition vpon Mahalah, a wise instruction of Dauid. The foole hath sayde in his heart there is no God: they haue corrupted them selues, & haue made their wickednes abhominable, he is not that doeth good.	The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity; there is none who does good.	For the director of music. According to mahalath. A maskil of David. The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and their ways are vile; there is no one who does good.
2	The Lorde looked downe from heauen vpon the chyldren of men: to see if there were any that did vnderstand and seeke after the Lorde.	God looks down from heaven on the children of man to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God.	God looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God.
3	But they dyd all go out of the way, they dyd altogether become abhomible: there was also none that would do good, no not one.	They have all fallen away; together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one.	Everyone has turned away, all have become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.
4	Wyll not the workers of iniquitie vnderstande, eating vp my people as if they eated bread: that they do not call vpon God?	Have those who work evil no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and do not call upon God?	Do all these evildoers know nothing? They devour my people as though eating bread; they never call on God.
5	They shalbe greatly there afraide where no cause of feare is: for the Lord wyll breake the bones of hym that besiegeth thee, thou wylt put them to shame, because the Lorde hath despised them.	There they are, in great terror, where there is no terror! For God scatters the bones of him who encamps against you; you put them to shame, for God has rejected them.	But 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.
6	Who is he that wyll geue saluation vnto Israel out of Sion? when the Lord wyll reduce his people out of captiuitie, Iacob wyll reioyce, and Israel wyll be glad.	Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When God restores the fortunes of his people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.	Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When God restores his people, let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!
