1To the conductor. Of David. The fool says in his heart, There is no God. They have ruined; they have abhorred wantonness; there is none who does good.2The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of man to see whether there is anyone prudent who seeks God.3All have turned aside together; they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one.4Have they not known—all the workers of evil who devour my people? They eat food and do not call upon the LORD.5There they dreaded with dread, for God is in the generation of the righteous.6You put to shame the counsel of the afflicted, for the LORD is his refuge.7Who will give the salvation of Israel from Zion? When the LORD restores the captivity of his people, Jacob will rejoice; Israel will rejoice.
