Psalms 53

For the choir director: A meditation; a psalma of David.

Only fools say in their hearts,
“There is no God.”
They are corrupt, and their actions are evil;
not one of them does good!

There Is None Who Does Good

To the choirmaster: according to Mahalath. A Maskila of David.

The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”
They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity;
there is none who does good.

God looks down from heaven
on the entire human race;
he looks to see if anyone is truly wise,
if anyone seeks God.

God looks down from heaven
on the children of man
to see if there are any who understand,b
who seek after God.

But no, all have turned away;
all have become corrupt.b
No one does good,
not a single one!

They have all fallen away;
together they have become corrupt;
there is none who does good,
not even one.

Will those who do evil never learn?
They eat up my people like bread
and wouldn’t think of praying to God.

Have those who work evil no knowledge,
who eat up my people as they eat bread,
and do not call upon God?

Terror will grip them,
terror like they have never known before.
God will scatter the bones of your enemies.
You will put them to shame, for God has rejected them.

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.

Who will come from Mount Zion to rescue Israel?
When God restores his people,
Jacob will shout with joy, and Israel will rejoice.

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.
