< Psalms 53 >

1 For the Leader; upon Mahalath. Maschil of David. The fool hath said in his heart: 'There is no God'; they have dealt corruptly, and have done abominable iniquity; there is none that doeth good.
למנצח על-מחלת משכיל לדוד ב אמר נבל בלבו אין אלהים השחיתו והתעיבו עול-- אין עשה-טוב
2 God looked forth from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any man of understanding, that did seek after God.
אלהים-- משמים השקיף על-בני-אדם לראות היש משכיל-- דרש את-אלהים
3 Every one of them is unclean, they are together become impure; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
כלו סג יחדו נאלחו אין עשה-טוב אין גם-אחד
4 'Shall not the workers of iniquity know it, who eat up My people as they eat bread, and call not upon God?'
הלא ידעו פעלי-און אכלי עמי אכלו לחם אלהים לא קראו
5 There are they in great fear, where no fear was; for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee; Thou hast put them to shame, because God hath rejected them.
שם פחדו פחד-- לא-היה-פחד כי-אלהים--פזר עצמות חנך הבשתה כי-אלהים מאסם
6 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God turneth the captivity of His people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.
מי יתן מציון ישעות ישראל בשוב אלהים שבות עמו יגל יעקב ישמח ישראל
