Psalms 53

Holman Christian Standard Bible, 2009 (HCSB)

Switch Version:

¹ [1] ⓐ The fool says in his heart, “God does not exist.” They are corrupt, and they do vile deeds. There is no one who does good. ⓑ

² God looks down from heaven on the human race to see if there is one who is wise, one who seeks God. ⓒ

³ All have turned away; all alike have become corrupt. There is no one who does good, not even one. ⓓ

⁴ Will evildoers never understand? They consume My people as they consume bread; ⓔ they do not call on God. ⓕ

⁵ Then they will be filled with terror — terror like no other ⓖ — because God will scatter the bones of those who besiege you. ⓗ You will put them to shame, for God has rejected them. ⓘ

⁶ Oh, that Israel’s deliverance would come from Zion! When God restores the fortunes of His people, [2] Jacob will rejoice; Israel will be glad. ⓙ
