 1 To the Chief Musician on Mahalath. A contemplation. A Psalm of David. The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They acted corruptly and worked abominable wickedness. There is not one doing good. 2 God looked down from Heaven on the children of mankind to see if any were discerning and were seeking God. 3 But every one has turned away. They have all become filthy. Not one is doing good. No, not even one. 4 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? They eat up my people like they eat bread. They have not called on God. 5 They dreaded with dread where no dread was. For God has scattered the bones of those who camp against you. You have put them to shame because God rejects them. 6 Who from Zion will give the salvation of Israel? When God brings back the captivity of His people, Jacob will rejoice and Israel will be glad.
