1123The foolH5036 has saidH559 in his heartH3820, “ThereH369 is noH369 GodH430,” They are corruptH7843, and have committedH8581 abominableH8581 injusticeH5766; 4ThereH369 is noH369 oneH369 who doesH6213 goodH2896.2GodH430 has lookedH8259 downH8259 from heavenH8064 upon the sonsH1121 of menH120 To seeH7200 if thereH3426 is 5anyone who 6understandsH7919, Who 7seeksH1875 after GodH430.38EveryH3605 oneH3605 of them has turnedH5472 asideH5472; togetherH3164 they have becomeH444 corruptH444; ThereH369 is noH369 oneH369 who doesH6213 goodH2896, not evenH1571 oneH259.
4HaveH3045 the workersH6466 of wickednessH205 9noH3808 knowledgeH3045, Who eatH398 up My peopleH5971 as though they ateH398 breadH3899 And have not calledH7121 upon GodH430?5ThereH8033 they were in greatH6343 10fearH6343 11where noH3808 12fearH6343 had beenH1961; For GodH430 13scatteredH6340 the bonesH6106 of 14him who encampedH2583 against you; You 15putH954 them to shameH954, becauseH3588 16GodH430 had rejectedH3988 them.6OhH4310H5414, that 17the salvationH3444 of IsraelH3478 18would come out of ZionH6726! When GodH430 19restoresH7725 His captiveH7622 peopleH5971, 20Let JacobH3290 rejoiceH1523, let IsraelH3478 be gladH8055.
