For 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 Jehovah looked down from heaven upon the children of men,

To see if there were any that did understand,

That did seek after God.

3 They are all gone aside; they are 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 Jehovah?

5 There were they in great fear;

For God is in the generation of the righteous.

6 Ye put to shame the counsel of the poor,

Because Jehovah is his refuge.

7 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion!

When Jehovah bringeth back the captivity of his people,

Then shall Jacob rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

1 愚顽人心里说："没有　神。"

他们都是败坏，行了可憎的事，

没有一个行善的。*本节在《马索拉文本》包括细字标题

2 耶和华从天上察看世人，

要看看有明慧的没有，

有寻求　神的没有。

3 人人都偏离了正道，一同变成污秽；

没有行善的，连一个也没有。

4 所有作恶的都是无知的吗？

他们吞吃我的子民好象吃饭一样，

并不求告耶和华。

5 他们必大大震惊，

因为　神在义人的群体中。

6 你们要使困苦人的计划失败，

但耶和华是他的避难所。

7 但愿以色列的救恩从锡安而出；

耶和华给他子民带来复兴的时候*"耶和华给他子民带来复兴的时候"或译："耶和华把他被掳的子民带回来的时候"，

雅各要快乐，以色列要欢喜。
