Folly of the Godless, and God’s Final Triumph
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
The afool has said in his heart,
“There is no God.”
They are corrupt,
They have done abominable works,
There is none who does good.
2 aThe Lord looks down from heaven upon the children of men,
To see if there are any who understand, who seek God.
3 aThey have all turned aside,
They have together become corrupt;
There is none who does good,
No, not one.
4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge,
Who eat up my people as they eat bread,
And ado not call on the Lord?
5 There they are in great fear,
For God is with the generation of the righteous.
6 You shame the counsel of the poor,
But the Lord is his arefuge.
7 aOh, that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion!
bWhen the Lord brings back the captivity of His people,
Let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad.
