1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.They are corrupt,they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
2 The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men,to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.
3 They are all gone aside,they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge?who eat up my people as they eat bread,and call not upon the Lord.
5 There were they in great fear:for God is in the generation of the righteous.
6 Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor,because the Lord is his refuge.
7 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion!When the Lord bringeth back the captivity of his people,Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
