1 The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds, there is none who does good.
2 The Lord looks down from heaven on the children of man,to see if there are any who understand,who seek after God.
3 They have all turned aside; together they have become corrupt;there is none who does good,not even one.
4 Have they no knowledge, all the evildoerswho eat up my people as they eat breadand do not call upon the Lord?
5 There they are in great terror,for God is with the generation of the righteous.
6 You would shame the plans of the poor,but the Lord is his refuge.
7 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.
