1 The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They have become corrupt and done abominable wrong; not one of them does good.
2 God looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see whether any had understanding, any who sought God.
3 Each of them has fallen away; all alike have turned foul; no one does good, not a single one.
4 Do the workers of iniquity know nothing, they who devour my people as they would eat bread, and do not call upon God?
5 There they were seized with dread where no dread had been; for God has scattered the bones of the one who besieges you. You have put them to shame, because God has despised them.
6 Oh, that out of Zion would come the salvation of Israel! When God restores the fortunes of his people, Jacob will rejoice and Israel be glad.
