Psalms - Chapter 53 | English Standard Version

  • 1. To the choirmaster: according to Mahalath. A Maskil of David. The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity; there is none who does good.
  • 2. God looks down from heaven on the children of man to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God.
  • 3. They have all fallen away; together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one.
  • 4. Have those who work evil no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and do not call upon God?
  • 5. There they are, in great terror, where there is no terror! For God scatters the bones of him who encamps against you; you put them to shame, for God has rejected them.
  • 6. Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When God restores the fortunes of his people, Let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.
