< Psalms 53 >

1 Unto the end. For Mahalath: the thoughts of David. The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They were corrupted, and they became abominable with iniquities. There is no one who does good.
למנצח על-מחלת משכיל לדוד ב אמר נבל בלבו אין אלהים השחיתו והתעיבו עול-- אין עשה-טוב
2 God gazed down from heaven on the sons of men, to see if there were any who were considering or seeking God.
אלהים-- משמים השקיף על-בני-אדם לראות היש משכיל-- דרש את-אלהים
3 All have gone astray; together they have become useless. There is no one who does good; there is not even one.
כלו סג יחדו נאלחו אין עשה-טוב אין גם-אחד
4 Will they never learn: all those who work iniquity, who devour my people like a meal of bread?
הלא ידעו פעלי-און אכלי עמי אכלו לחם אלהים לא קראו
5 They have not called upon God. In that place, they have trembled in fear, where there was no fear. For God has scattered the bones of those who please men. They have been confounded, because God has spurned them.
שם פחדו פחד-- לא-היה-פחד כי-אלהים--פזר עצמות חנך הבשתה כי-אלהים מאסם
6 Who will grant from Zion the salvation of Israel? Jacob will exult, when God will convert the captivity of his people; and Israel will rejoice.
מי יתן מציון ישעות ישראל בשוב אלהים שבות עמו יגל יעקב ישמח ישראל
