1 Godless fools say in their hearts,“There is no God.”They are corrupt.They do disgusting things.There is no one who does good things.
2 God looks down from heaven on Adam’s descendantsto see if there is anyone who acts wisely,if there is anyone who seeks help from God.
3 Everyone has fallen away.Together they have become rotten to the core.No one, not even one person, does good things.
4 Are all those troublemakers,those who devour my people as if they were devouring food,so ignorant that they do not call on God?
5 There they are—panic-stricken—⌊but⌋ there was no reason to panic,because God has scattered the bonesof those who set up camp against you.You put them to shame.After all, God has rejected them.
6 If only salvation for Israel would come from Zion!When God restores the fortunes of his people,Jacob will rejoice.Israel will be glad.
