New Living Translation NLT
King James Version KJV
1 Only fools say in their hearts, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and their actions are evil; not one of them does good!
1
The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
2 The LORD looks down from heaven on the entire human race; he looks to see if anyone is truly wise, if anyone seeks God.
2
The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.
3 But no, all have turned away; all have become corrupt. No one does good, not a single one!
3
They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4 Will those who do evil never learn? They eat up my people like bread and wouldn’t think of praying to the LORD .
4
Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.
5 Terror will grip them, for God is with those who obey him.
5
There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.
6 The wicked frustrate the plans of the oppressed, but the LORD will protect his people.
6
Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.
7 Who will come from Mount Zion to rescue Israel? When the LORD restores his people, Jacob will shout with joy, and Israel will rejoice.
7
Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
