1 Fools say to themselves,“There is no God.”They are all corrupt,and they have done terrible things;there is no one who does what is right.
2 The Lord looks down from heaven at human beingsto see if there are any who are wise,any who worship him.
3 But they have all gone wrong;they are all equally bad.Not one of them does what is right,not a single one.
4 “Don't they know?” asks the Lord.“Are all these evildoers ignorant?They live by robbing my people,and they never pray to me.”
5 But then they will be terrified,for God is with those who obey him.
6 Evildoers frustrate the plans of the humble,but the Lord is their protection.
