1To the Overseer. — By David. A fool hath said in his heart, 'God is not;' They have done corruptly, They have done abominable actions, There is not a doer of good.
2Jehovah from the heavens Hath looked on the sons of men, To see if there is a wise one — seeking God.
3The whole have turned aside, Together they have been filthy: There is not a doer of good, not even one.
4Have all working iniquity not known? Those consuming my people have eaten bread, Jehovah they have not called.
5There they have feared a fear, For God is in the generation of the righteous.
6The counsel of the poor ye cause to stink, Because Jehovah is his refuge.
7Who doth give from Zion the salvation of Israel? When Jehovah doth turn back To a captivity of His people, Jacob doth rejoice — Israel is glad!
