To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
2 The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.
3 They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.
5 There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.
6 Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.
7 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

1 Dziedātāju vadonim. Dāvida dziesma. Bezprāši saka savā sirdī: Dieva nevaid! Tie ir samaitāti un dara nelietības, starp viņiem nav neviena, kas dara labu. 2 Tas Kungs skatās no debesīm uz cilvēku bērniem un raugās, vai jel kāds ir sapratīgs un meklē Dievu. 3 Bet viņi ir novirzījušies, visnotaļ izvirtuši; nav neviena, kas dara labu, it neviena. 4 Vai tad nav nekādas saprašanas ļauna darītājiem, kas saēd manu tautu un kas gan ēd Tā Kunga maizi, tomēr nepiesaukdami Viņu? 5 Reiz viņi bīdamies izbīsies, jo Dievs ir ar taisno cilti. 6 Jūs nievājat nabaga padomu, bet Tas Kungs ir viņa patvērums. 7 Ak, kaut Israēlam no Ciānas nāktu palīdzība! Kad Tas Kungs reiz vērsīs uz labu Savas tautas likteni, tad Jēkabs priecāsies un Israēls līksmos.
