Psalms 53
53
Psalm 53#53:0 Psalm 53 is virtually identical in wording to Psalm 14.
For the choir director; according to mahalath,#53:0 Unknown musical term. a maskil by David.
1Godless fools say in their hearts,
“There is no God.”
They are corrupt.
They do disgusting things.
There is no one who does good things.
2God looks down from heaven on Adam’s descendants
to see if there is anyone who acts wisely,
if there is anyone who seeks help from God.
3Everyone has fallen away.
Together they have become rotten to the core.
No one, not even one person, does good things.
4Are all those troublemakers,
those who devour my people as if they were devouring food,
so ignorant that they do not call on God?
5There they are—panic-stricken—
⌞but⌟ there was no reason to panic,
because God has scattered the bones
of those who set up camp against you.
You put them to shame.
After all, God has rejected them.
6If only salvation for Israel would come from Zion!
When God restores the fortunes of his people,
Jacob will rejoice.
Israel will be glad.

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.
