Psalm 53
Psalm 53
1 The fool[1] hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good[2].
2 God looked down from heaven[3] upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God[4].
3 Every one of them is gone back[5]: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge[6]? who eat up my people as they eat bread: they have not called upon God.
5 There were they in great fear, where no fear was: for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee: thou hast put them to shame, because God hath despised them.
6 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
