2
The Lord looks down from heaven upon the children of men, To see if there are any who understand, who seek God.
3
They have all turned aside, They have together become corrupt; There is none 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 do not call on the Lord?
5
There they are in great fear, For God is with the generation of the righteous.
6
You shame the counsel of the poor, But the Lord is his refuge.
7
Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion! When the Lord brings back the captivity of His people, Let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad.
