<p>For the director of music. Of David. </p>

<p>1 The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good. </p>
<p>2 The LORD looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God. </p>
<p>3 All have turned away, all have become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one. </p>
<p>4 Do all these evildoers know nothing?</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>They devour my people as though eating bread; they never call on the Lord.</p>
<p>5 But there they are, overwhelmed with dread, for God is present in the company of the righteous. </p>
<p>6 You evildoers frustrate the plans of the poor, but the LORD is their refuge. </p>
<p><br></p>
<p>7 Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!</p>
<p>When the LORD restores his people, let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad! </p>
