Ps 53
0 Psalm 53
For the Chief Musician; set to Mahalath. Maschil of David.
1
The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable
iniquity; There is none that 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 after God.
3
Every one of them is gone back; they are together become filthy; There is none
that does good, no, not one.
4
Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, Who eat up my people [as] they eat bread,
And call not upon God?
5
There were they in great fear, where no fear was; For God has scattered the bones
of him whom encamps against you: You have put them to shame, because of God
has rejected them.
6
Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God brings back the captivity
of his people, Then shall Jacob rejoice, [and] Israel shall be glad. Psalm
54 For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. Maschil of David; when the Ziphites
came and said to Saul, Does not David hide himself with us?
