Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity. There is no one who does good.
1Εἰς τὸ τέλος, ἐν ὕμνοις συνέσεως τῷ Δαυὶδ,
2God looks down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there are any who understood, who seek after God.
2ἐν τῷ ἐλθεῖν τοὺς Ζειφαίους, καὶ εἰπεῖν τῷ Σαοὺλ, οὐκ ἰδοὺ Δαυὶδ κέκρυπται παρʼ ἡμῖν;
3Every one of them has gone back. They have become filthy together. There is no one who does good, no, not one.
3Ὁ Θεὸς ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου σῶσόν με, καὶ ἐν τῇ δυνάμει σου κρῖνόν με.
4Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and don’t call on God?
4Ὁ Θεὸς εἰσάκουσον τῆς προσευχῆς μου, ἐνώτισαι τὰ ῥήματα τοῦ στόματός μου.
5There they were in great fear, where no fear was, for God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you. You have put them to shame, because God has rejected them.
5Ὅτι ἀλλότριοι ἐπανέστησαν ἐπʼ ἐμὲ, καὶ κραταιοὶ ἐζήτησαν τὴν ψυχήν μου, οὐ προέθεντο τὸν Θεὸν ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν· διάψαλμα.
6Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion! When God brings back his people from captivity, then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
6Ἰδοὺ γὰρ ὁ Θεὸς βοηθεῖ μοι, καὶ ὁ Κύριος ἀντιλήπτωρ τῆς ψυχῆς μου.
