Wickedness of Men. Psalm 53(v52) | |||
1 | The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity; there is none that does good. | ||
2 | God looks down from heaven upon the sons of men to see if there are any that are wise, that seek after God. | ||
3 | They have all fallen away; they are all alike depraved; there is none that does good, no, not one. | ||
4 | Have those who work evil no understanding, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and do not call upon God? | ||
5 | There they are, in great terror, in terror such as has not been! For God will scatter the bones of the ungodly; they will be put to shame, for God has rejected them. | ||
6 | O that deliverance for Israel would come from Zion! When God restores the fortunes of his people, Jacob will rejoice and Israel be glad. | ||
