New International Version NIV
New Living Translation NLT
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.
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!
2 God looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God.
2
God looks down from heaven on the entire human race; he looks to see if anyone is truly wise, if anyone seeks God.
3 Everyone has turned away, all have become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.
3
But no, all have turned away; all have become corrupt. No one does good, not a single one!
4 Do all these evildoers know nothing? They devour my people as though eating bread; they never call on God.
4
Will those who do evil never learn? They eat up my people like bread and wouldn’t think of praying to God.
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.
5
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.
6 Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When God restores his people, let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!
6
Who will come from Mount Zion to rescue Israel? When God restores his people, Jacob will shout with joy, and Israel will rejoice.
