Folly and Wickedness of Men.

For the choir director. A Psalm of David.

1The foolH5036 has 1saidH559 in his heartH3820, “ThereH369 is noH369 GodH430.” They are corruptH7843, they have committedH8581 abominableH8581 2deedsH5949; ThereH369 is 3noH369 oneH369 who doesH6213 goodH2896.2The LordH3068 has 4lookedH8259 downH8259 from heavenH8064 upon the sonsH1121 of menH120 To seeH7200 if thereH3426 are anyH3426 who 56understandH7919, Who 7seekH1875 after GodH430.3They have allH3605 8turnedH5493 asideH5493, togetherH3164 they have becomeH444 corruptH444; ThereH369 is 9noH369 oneH369 who doesH6213 goodH2896, not evenH1571 oneH259.

4Do allH3605 the workersH6466 of wickednessH205 10not knowH3045, Who 11eatH398 up my peopleH5971 as they eatH398 breadH3899, And 12do not callH7121 upon the LordH3068?5ThereH8033 they are in greatH6343 dreadH6342, For GodH430 is with the 13righteousH6662 generationH1755.6You would putH954 to shameH954 the counselH6098 of the afflictedH6041, But the LordH3068 is his 14refugeH4268.

7OhH4310H5414, that 15the salvationH3444 of IsraelH3478 16would come out of ZionH6726! When the LordH3068 1718restoresH7725 His captiveH7622 peopleH5971, JacobH3290 will rejoiceH1523, IsraelH3478 will be gladH8055.
