1 That there is not a God, the fooldoth in his heart conclude:They are corrupt, their works are vile,not one of them doth good.
2 The Lord upon the sons of menfrom heav'n did cast his eyes,To see if any one there wasthat sought God, and was wise.
3 They altogether filthy are,they all are backward gone;And there is none that doeth good,no, not so much as one.
4 These workers of iniquity,do they not know at all,That they my people eat as bread,and on God do not call?
5 Ev'n there they were afraid, and stoodwith trembling, all dismay'd,Whereas there was no cause at allwhy they should be afraid:For God his bones that thee besieg'dhath scatter'd all abroad;Thou hast confounded them, for theydespised are of God.
6 Let Isr'el's help from Sion come:when back the Lord shall bringHis captives, Jacob shall rejoice,and Israel shall sing.
