| | 1 | For the director of music. Of David. The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good. | |
| | 2 | The LORD looks down from heaven on the sons of men to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God. | |
| | 3 | All have turned aside, they have together become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one. | |
| | 4 | Will evildoers never learn--those who devour my people as men eat bread and who do not call on the LORD? | |
| | 5 | There they are, overwhelmed with dread, for God is present in the company of the righteous. | |
| | 6 | You evildoers frustrate the plans of the poor, but the LORD is their refuge. | |
| | 7 | Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people, let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad! | |
