14
For the chief musician. A psalm of David.
1 A fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”
They are corrupt and have done abominable iniquity;
there is no one who does good.
2 Yahweh looks down from heaven on the children of mankind
to see if there are any who understand,
who seek after him.
3 They have all turned away. Together they have become corrupt.
There is no one who does good, no, not one.
4 Do they not know anything, those who commit iniquity,
those who eat up my people as they eat bread,
but who do not call on Yahweh?
5 They tremble with dread,
for God is with the righteous assembly!
6 You want to humiliate the poor person
even though Yahweh is his refuge.
7 Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come from Zion!
When Yahweh brings back his people from the captivity,
then Jacob will rejoice and Israel will be glad!
