To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
1
The fool hath said in his heart, there is no God.They are corrupt, they have done abominable works,There is none that doeth good.
2
The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men,To see if there were any that did understand, And seek God.
3
They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy:There is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4
Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge?Who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.
5
There were they in great fear:For God is in the generation of the righteous.
6
Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor,Because the LORD is his refuge.
7
Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion!When the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people,Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
