Tehillim 53
53
(For the one directing. According to ma'alot. Maskil of Dovid)
1 The naval (fool) hath said in his lev, Ein Elohim (There is no G-d). Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity; there is none that doeth tov.
2 Elohim looked down from Shomayim upon Bnei Adam, to see if there were any of seichel, that did seek Elohim.
3 Every one of them has fallen away; they are altogether perverse; there is none that doeth tov, no, not echad (one).
4 Have the workers of iniquity no da'as? Who eat up My people as they eat lechem; they have not called upon Elohim.
5 There were they in great pachad (fear), pachad such as never was; for Elohim hath scattered the atzmot of him that encampeth against thee; thou#53:5 Yisroel hast put them to shame, because Elohim hath rejected them.
6 Oh that the Yeshu'at Yisroel would come out of Tziyon! When Elohim bringeth back the captivity of Amo (His people), Ya'akov shall rejoice, and Yisroel shall be glad.

Psalms 53
53
Psalm 53#In Hebrew texts 53:1-6 is numbered 53:2-7.
For the director of music. According to mahalath.#Title: Probably a musical term A maskil#Title: Probably a literary or musical term of David.
1The fool says in his heart,
‘There is no God.’
They are corrupt, and their ways are vile;
there is no-one who does good.
2God looks down from heaven
on all mankind
to see if there are any who understand,
any who seek God.
3Everyone has turned away, all have become corrupt;
there is no-one who does good,
not even one.
4Do all these evildoers know nothing?
They devour my people as though eating bread;
they never call on God.
5But there they are, overwhelmed with dread,
where there was nothing to dread.
God scattered the bones of those who attacked you;
you put them to shame, for God despised them.
6Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!
When God restores his people,
let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!
