For the director of music. According to mahalath. A maskil of David.
1Foolish people say in their hearts, ‘There is no God.’ They do all kinds of horrible and evil things. No one does anything good.2God looks down from heaven on all people. He wants to see if there are any who understand. He wants to see if there are any who trust in God.3All of them have turned away. They have all become evil. No one does anything good, no one at all.4Don’t these people who do evil know anything? They eat up my people as if they were eating bread. They never call out to God for help.5Just look at them! They are filled with terror even when there is nothing to be afraid of! People of Israel, God scattered the bones of those who attacked you. You put them to shame, because God hated them.6How I pray that the God who saves Israel will come out of Zion! God will bless his people with great success again. Then let the people of Jacob be filled with joy! Let Israel be glad!
English Standard Version
There Is None Who Does Good
1To the choirmaster: according to Mahalath. A Maskil* of David. The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity; there is none who does good.2God looks down from heaven on the children of man to see if there are any who understand,* who seek after God.3They have all fallen away; together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one.4Have those who work evil no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and do not call upon God?5There they are, in great terror, where there is no terror! For God scatters the bones of him who encamps against you; you put them to shame, for God has rejected them.6Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When God restores the fortunes of his people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.
