Berean Standard Bible
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt; their ways are vile. There is no one who does good.
1Unto the end, In verses, understanding for David.
2God looks down from heaven upon the sons of men to see if any understand, if any seek God.
2When the men of Ziph had come and said to Saul: Is not David hidden with us?
3All have turned away, they have together become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.
3Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy strength.
4Will the workers of iniquity never learn? They devour my people like bread; they refuse to call upon God.
4O God, hear my prayer: give ear to the words of my mouth.
5There they are, overwhelmed with dread, where there was nothing to fear. For God has scattered the bones of those who besieged you. You put them to shame, for God has despised them.
5For strangers have risen up against me; and the mighty have sought after my soul: and they have not set God before their eyes.
6Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come from Zion! When God restores His captive people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad!
6For behold God is my helper: and the Lord is the protector of my soul.
