# Psalm 53 To the choirmaster: according to Mahalath. A Maskil of David.
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity; there is none who does good.
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. God looks down from heaven on the children of man to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God.
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. They have all fallen away; together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one.
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. Have those who work evil no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and do not call upon God?
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. There they are, in great terror, where there is no terror! For God scatters the bones of him who encamps against you; you put them to shame, for God has rejected them.
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When God restores the fortunes of his people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.
(ESV)
