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!
