There Is No One Who Does Good
For the choir director. According to Mahalath. A Maskil of David.
aThe wicked fool says in his heart, “There is no God,”
They act corruptly, and commit abominable injustice;
bThere is no one who does good.
2 God looks down from heaven upon the sons of men
To see if there is aanyone who has insight,
Anyone who bseeks after God.
3 aEvery one of them has turned back; together they have become worthless;
There is no one who does good, not even one.
4 Do the workers of iniquity anot know,
Who eat up my people as they eat bread
And do not call upon God?
5 There they were in great dread awhere no dread had been;
For God bscattered the bones of him who encamped against you;
You cput them to shame, because dGod had rejected them.
6 Oh, that athe salvation of Israel would come out of Zion!
When God restores His captive people,
May Jacob rejoice, may Israel be glad.
