1 To the chief music-maker. Of David. The foolish man has said in his heart, God will not do anything. They are unclean, they have done evil works; there is not one who does good.

2 The Lord was looking down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there were any who had wisdom, searching after God.

3 They have all gone out of the way together; they are unclean, there is not one who does good, no, not one.

4 Have all the workers of evil no knowledge? they take my people for food as they would take bread; they make no prayer to the Lord.

5 Then were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the upright.

6 You have put to shame the thoughts of the poor, but the Lord is his support.

7 May the salvation of Israel come out of Zion! when the fate of his people is changed by the Lord, Jacob will have joy and Israel will 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《马索拉抄本》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像吃饭一样， 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。
