World English Bible Classic
For the Chief Musician. By David.
[1] The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.”They are corrupt.
They have done abominable deeds.
There is no one who does good.
[2] Yahweh looked down from heaven on the children of men,
to see if there were any who understood,
who sought after God.
[3] They have all gone aside.
They have together become corrupt.
There is no one who does good, no, not one.
[4] Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge,
who eat up my people as they eat bread,
and don’t call on Yahweh?
[5] There they were in great fear,
for God is in the generation of the righteous.
[6] You frustrate the plan of the poor,
because Yahweh is his refuge.
[7] Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion!
When Yahweh restores the fortunes of his people,
then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
King James Version
To the chief Musician, H5329 (PielPtc) A Psalm of David. H1732
[1] The fool H5036 hath said H559 (QalPerf) in his heart, H3820 there is no God. H430They are corrupt, H7843 (HiphPerf) they have done abominable H8581 (HiphPerf) works, H5949
There is none that doeth H6213 (QalActPtc) good. H2896
[2] The Lord H3068 looked down H8259 (HiphPerf) from heaven H8064 upon the children H1121 of men, H120
To see H7200 (QalInf) if there H3426 were any that did understand, H7919 (HiphPtc) And seek H1875 (QalActPtc) God. H430
[3] They are all gone aside, H5493 (QalPerf) they are all together H3162 become filthy: H444 (NiphPerf)§
There is none that doeth H6213 (QalActPtc) good, H2896 no, not one. H259
[4] Have all the workers H6466 (QalActPtc) of iniquity H205 no knowledge? H3045 (QalPerf)
Who eat up H398 (QalActPtc) my people H5971 as they eat H398 (QalPerf) bread, H3899 and call H7121 (QalPerf) not upon the Lord. H3068
[5] There were they in great H6343 fear: H6342 (QalPerf)§
For God H430 is in the generation H1755 of the righteous. H6662
[6] Ye have shamed H954 (HiphImpf) the counsel H6098 of the poor, H6041
Because the Lord H3068 is his refuge. H4268
[7] Oh that H5414 (QalImpf) the salvation H3444 of Israel H3478 were come out of Zion! H6726
When the Lord H3068 bringeth back H7725 (QalInf) the captivity H7622 of his people, H5971
Jacob H3290 shall rejoice, H1523 (QalImpf) and Israel H3478 shall be glad. H8055 (QalImpf)
