1 לַמְנַצֵּחַ לְדָוִד אָמַר נָבָל בְּלִבֹּו אֵין אֱלֹהִים הִשְׁחִיתוּ הִתְעִיבוּ עֲלִילָה אֵין עֹשֵׂה־טֹוב׃

2 יְהוָה מִשָּׁמַיִם הִשְׁקִיף עַל־בְּנֵי־אָדָם לִרְאֹות הֲיֵשׁ מַשְׂכִּיל דֹּרֵשׁ אֶת־אֱלֹהִים׃

3 הַכֹּל סָר יַחְדָּו נֶאֱלָחוּ אֵין עֹשֵׂה־טֹוב אֵין גַּם־אֶחָד׃

4 הֲלֹא יָדְעוּ כָּל־פֹּעֲלֵי אָוֶן אֹכְלֵי עַמִּי אָכְלוּ לֶחֶם יְהוָה לֹא קָרָאוּ׃

5 שָׁם ׀ פָּחֲדוּ פָחַד כִּי־אֱלֹהִים בְּדֹור צַדִּיק׃

6 עֲצַת־עָנִי תָבִישׁוּ כִּי יְהוָה מַחְסֵהוּ׃

7 מִי יִתֵּן מִצִּיֹּון יְשׁוּעַת יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּשׁוּב יְהוָה שְׁבוּת עַמֹּו יָגֵל יַעֲקֹב יִשְׂמַח יִשְׂרָאֵל ׃

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.
