1 א למנצח על-מחלת משכיל לדוד br
2 ב אמר נבל בלבו אין אלהים br השחיתו והתעיבו עול-- אין עשה-טוב br
3 ג אלהים-- משמים השקיף על-בני-אדם br לראות היש משכיל-- דרש את-אלהים br
4 ד כלו סג יחדו נאלחו אין עשה-טוב אין גם-אחד br
5 ה הלא ידעו פעלי-און אכלי עמי אכלו לחם אלהים לא קראו br
6 ו שם פחדו פחד-- לא-היה-פחד br כי-אלהים--פזר עצמות חנך הבשתה כי-אלהים מאסם br [ (Psalms 53:7) ז מי יתן מציון ישעות ישראל br בשוב אלהים שבות עמו יגל יעקב ישמח ישראל ]
1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.
2 God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
3 Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread: they have not called upon God.
5 There were they in great fear, where no fear was: for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee: thou hast put them to shame, because God hath despised them.
6 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
