The Folly and Wickedness of Men |
| Ps. 53.1-6 |
| To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. |
|
| 1 |
The fool hath said in his heart,
| | |
There is no God. |
|
They are corrupt, |
|
they have done abominable works, |
|
there is none that doeth good. |
|
|
| 2 |
The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men,
| | |
to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. |
|
|
| 3 |
They are all gone aside,
| | |
they are all together become filthy: |
|
there is none that doeth good, no, not one. Rom. 3.10-12 |
|
|
| 4 |
Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge?
| | |
who eat up my people as they eat bread, |
|
and call not upon the LORD. |
|
|
| 5 |
There were they in great fear:
| | |
for God is in the generation of the righteous. |
|
|
| 6 |
Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor,
| | |
because the LORD is his refuge. |
|
|
| 7 |
Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion!
| | |
When the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, |
|
Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad. |
