Foolishness and Wickedness of People.

For the music director. A Psalm of David.

1The foolH5036 has 1saidH559 in his heartH3820, “ThereH369 isH369 noH369 GodH430.” They areH7843 corruptH7843, they have committedH8581 detestableH8581 actsH5949; ThereH369 isH369 2noH369 oneH369 who doesH6213 goodH2896.2The LordH3068 has 3lookedH8259 downH8259 from heavenH8064 upon the sonsH1121 of mankindH120 To seeH7200 if thereH3426 areH3426 anyH3426 who 45understandH7919, Who 6seekH1875 GodH430.3They have allH3605 7turnedH5493 asideH5493, togetherH3164 they are corruptH444; ThereH369 isH369 8noH369 oneH369 who doesH6213 goodH2896, not evenH1571 oneH259.

4Do allH3605 the workersH6466 of injusticeH205 9not knowH3045, Who 10devourH398 my peopleH5971 as they eatH398 breadH3899, And 11do not callH7121 upon the LordH3068?5ThereH8033 they areH6342 inH6342 greatH6343 dreadH6342, For GodH430 is with a 12righteousH6662 generationH1755.6You would putH954 toH954 shameH954 the planH6098 of the poorH6041, But the LordH3068 is his 13refugeH4268.

7OhH4310H5414, that 14the salvationH3444 of IsraelH3478 would come out of ZionH6726! When the LordH3068 15restoresH7725 the fortunesH7622 of His peopleH5971, JacobH3290 will rejoiceH1523, IsraelH3478 will beH8055 gladH8055.
