1 For the one directing. Of David. <span class=|reftext|><a href=|#|><b>1</b></a> The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt; they have done abominable deeds; there is no one doing good.2 YHWH looks down from the heavens upon the sons of man, to see, is there one understanding, seeking God?3 All have turned aside, together they have become corrupt; there is no one doing good, not even one.4 All those working iniquity, have they not know? They devour my people they have eaten bread; on YHWH they do not call.5 There they tremble with dread, for God [is] in the generation of the righteous.6 The counsel of the poor you⁺ have shamed, for YHWH [is] his place of refuge.7 Who gives from Zion the salvation of Israel? In YHWH turning back the captivity of His people, let Jacob rejoice; let Israel be glad!
