1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no Elohim. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
2 יהוה looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek Elohim.
3 They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon יהוה.
5 There were they in great fear: for Elohim is in the generation of the righteous.
6 Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because יהוה is his refuge.
7 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when יהוה bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
