1TO THE OVERSEER. “ON A DISEASE.” AN INSTRUCTION OF DAVID. A fool said in his heart, “There is no God.” They have done corruptly, || Indeed, they have done abominable iniquity, || There is none doing good.

2God looked on the sons of men from the heavens, || To see if there is an understanding one, || [One] seeking God.

3Everyone went back, together they became filthy, || There is none doing good—not even one.

4Workers of iniquity have not known, || Those eating my people have eaten bread, || They have not called God.

5There they feared a fear—there was no fear, || For God has scattered the bones of him || Who is encamping against you, || You have put to shame, || For God has despised them.

6Who gives the salvation of Israel from Zion? When God turns back [to] a captivity of His people, || Jacob rejoices—Israel is glad!
