For the Chief Musician. By David.

1 The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God."

They are corrupt.

They have done abominable deeds.

There is no one who does good.

2 The LORD looked down from heaven on the children of men,

to see if there were any who understood,

who sought after God.

3 They have all gone aside.

They have together become corrupt.

There is no one who does good, no, not one.

4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge,

who eat up my people as they eat bread,

and don’t call on the LORD?

5 There they were in great fear,

for God is in the generation of the righteous.

6 You frustrate the plan of the poor,

because the LORD is his refuge.

7 Oh that the salvation [yeshuat] of Israel would come out of Zion!

When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people,

then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

3 Todos se desviaram e juntamente se corromperam. Não há quem faça o bem, absolutamente ninguém!

4 Serão assim tão ignorantes, esses malfeitores,que devoram o meu povo como se comessem pão? Recusam chamar por Deus.

5 O terror dominará as suas vidas,porque Deus está com os que o buscam.

6 Vocês desprezam o direito dos pobres,mas o Senhor é o refúgio deles.

7 Que bom seria se já tivesse vindo de Siãoo livramento do povo de Deus! Que alegria será quando o Senhor vier libertar os presos do seu povoe salvar Israel!
