1 Only fools think there is no God. People like that are evil and do terrible things. They never do what is right.
2 The Lord looks down from heaven to see if there is anyone who is wise, anyone who looks to him for help.
3 But everyone has gone the wrong way. Everyone has turned bad. No one does anything good. No, not one person!
4 Those who are evil treat my people like bread to be eaten. And they never ask for the Lord’S help. Don’t they know what they are doing?
5 They will have plenty to fear, because God is with those who do what is right.
6 You wicked people want to spoil the hopes of the poor, but the Lord will protect them.
