Psalms 53

WBT

NIV

1 To the chief Musician upon Mahalath, Maschil, [A Psalm] of David. The fool hath said in his heart, [There is] no God. They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity: [there is] none that doeth good.
1 The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and their ways are vile; there is no one who does 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.
2 God looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God.
3 Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; [there is] none that doeth good, no, not one.
3 Everyone has turned away, all have become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.
4 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people [as] they eat bread! they have not called upon God.
4 Do all these evildoers know nothing? They devour my people as though eating bread; they never call on God.
5 There they were 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.
5 But there they are, overwhelmed with dread, where there was nothing to dread. God scattered the bones of those who attacked you; you put them to shame, for God despised them.
6 O 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.
6 Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When God restores his people, let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!
