| Folly and Wickedness of Men |
| For 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] | Jehovah looked down from heaven upon the children of men, To see if there were any that did understand, 1 That did seek after God. |
| [3] | They are all gone aside; they are 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 Jehovah? |
| [5] | There were they in great fear; For God is in the generation of the righteous. |
| [6] | Ye put to shame the counsel of the poor, Because 2 Jehovah is his refuge. |
| [7] | Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When Jehovah bringeth 3 back the captivity of his people, Then shall Jacob rejoice, and Israel shall be glad. |
