Psalmorum 53

1 in finem pro Melech intellegentiae David dixit insipiens in corde suo non est Deus corrupti sunt et abominabiles facti sunt in iniquitatibus non est qui faciat bonum

THE fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.

2 Deus de caelo prospexit in filios hominum ut videat si est intellegens aut requirens Deum

God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.

3 omnes declinaverunt simul inutiles facti sunt non est qui faciat bonum non est usque ad unum

Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

4 nonne scient omnes qui operantur iniquitatem qui devorant plebem meam ut cibum panis

Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread: they have not called upon God.

5 Deum non invocaverunt illic trepidabunt timore ubi non fuit timor quoniam Deus dissipavit ossa eorum qui hominibus placent confusi sunt quoniam Deus sprevit eos

There were 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 despised them.

6 quis dabit ex Sion salutare Israhel dum convertit Deus captivitatem plebis suae exultabit Iacob et laetabitur Israhel

Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
