1 Fools say in their hearts, There is no God.They are corrupt and do evil things;not one of them does anything good.
2 The Lord looks down from heaven on humansto see if anyone is wise,to see if anyone seeks God,
3 but all of them have turned bad.Everyone is corrupt.No one does good—not even one person!
4 Are they dumb, all these evildoers,devouring my peoplelike they are eating breadbut never calling on the Lord?
5 Count on it: they will be in utter panicbecause God is with the righteous generation.
6 You evildoers may humiliatethe plans of those who suffer,but the Lord is their refuge.
7 Let Israel’s salvation come out of Zion!When the Lord changeshis people’s circumstances for the better,Jacob will rejoice;Israel will celebrate!
