The Scriptures (ISR 1998) 1The fool has said in his heart, “There is no יהוה.” They have done corruptly, They have done an abominable deed, There is no one who does good. 2יהוה looked down from the heavens on the sons of mankind, To see if there is a wise one, seeking יהוה. 3They have all turned aside, They have together become filthy; No one is doing good, not even one. 4Have all the workers of wickedness no knowledge, Who eat up my people as they eat bread, And do not call on יהוה? 5There they are in great fear, For יהוה is with the generation of the righteous. 6You would put to shame the counsel of the poor, But יהוה is his refuge. 7O that the deliverance of Yisra’ĕl Would be given out of Tsiyon! When יהוה turns back the captivity of His people, Let Ya‛aqoḇ rejoice, let Yisra’ĕl be glad. |
