1The fool hath said in his heart, There is no ¹⁴⁶God! They have corrupted themselves, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.

2¹⁴⁷God looked down from the heavens upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek ¹⁴⁸God.

3Every one of them is gone back, they are together become corrupt: there is none that doeth good, not even one.

4Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, eating up my people [as] they eat bread? they call not upon ¹⁴⁹God.

5There were they in great fear, where no fear was; for ¹⁵⁰God scattereth the bones of him that encampeth against thee. Thou hast put [them] to shame, for ¹⁵¹God hath despised them.

6Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When ¹⁵²God turneth again the captivity of his people, Jacob shall be glad, Israel shall rejoice.
