1A fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”
They are corrupt and have done abominable iniquity;
there is no one who does good.

2Yahweh looks down from heaven on the children of mankind
to see if there are any who understand,
who seek after him.

3They have all turned away. Together they have become corrupt.
There is no one who does good, no, not one.

4Do they not know anything, those who commit iniquity,
those who eat up my people as they eat bread,
but who do not call on Yahweh?

5They tremble with dread,
for God is with the righteous assembly!

6You want to humiliate the poor person
even though Yahweh is his refuge.

7Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come from Zion!
When Yahweh brings back his people from the captivity,
then Jacob will rejoice and Israel will be glad!
