For the music leader, on Mahalath, a skillful song of David.

The fool said in his heart, 'There is no Elohim.' They acted corruptly, they acted detestably; there is no one doing good.

Elohim looked down from the heavens upon the children of man, to see if there is one understanding, one seeking after Elohim.

All of them have turned aside, together they have become corrupt; there is no one doing good, no, not even one.

Will the workers of wickedness not know? They eat my people, they eat bread; they do not call upon Elohim.

There they were seized with terror, where no terror was; for Elohim scattered the bones of him who encamps against you; you put them to shame, for Elohim has rejected them.

Oh, that the deliverances of Yisra'el would come from Tsiyon! When Elohim restores the fortunes of his people, Ya'aqov will rejoice, Yisra'el will be glad.
