1 For the Conductor, by David. The fool says in his heart, "There is no God!" [Man's] deeds have become corrupt and abominable, no one does good.
2 The Lord looked down from heaven upon mankind, to see if there was any wise man who searches for God.
3 They have all gone astray together, they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one.
4 Indeed, all the evildoers, who devour My people as they devour bread, who do not call upon the Lord, will [ultimately] come to know [the consequences of their actions].
5 There they will be seized with fright, for God is with the righteous generation.
6 You scorn the counsel of the lowly, that he puts his trust in the Lord.
7 O that out of Zion would come Israel's deliverance! When the Lord returns the captivity of His people, Jacob will exult, Israel will rejoice.
