JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt; their acts are vile. There is no one who does good.
1For the Leader. A Psalm of David. The fool hath said in his heart: 'There is no God'; they have dealt corruptly, they have done abominably; there is none that doeth good.
2The LORD looks down from heaven upon the sons of men to see if any understand, if any seek God.
2The LORD looked forth from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any man of understanding, that did seek after God.
3All have turned away, they have together become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.
3They are all corrupt, they are together become impure; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4Will the workers of iniquity never learn? They devour my people like bread; they refuse to call upon the LORD.
4'Shall not all the workers of iniquity know it, who eat up My people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD?'
5There they are, overwhelmed with dread, for God is in the company of the righteous.
5There are they in great fear; for God is with the righteous generation.
6You sinners frustrate the plans of the oppressed, yet the LORD is their shelter.
6Ye would put to shame the counsel of the poor, but the LORD is his refuge.
7Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come from Zion! When the LORD restores His captive people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad!
7Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When the LORD turneth the captivity of His people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.
