Psalms 53
Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
1 Ref To the Overseer. -- `On a disease.' -- An instruction, by David. A fool said in his heart, `There is no God.' They have done corruptly, Yea, they have done abominable iniquity, There is none doing good.
2 Ref God from the heavens looked on the sons of men, To see if there be an understanding one, `One' seeking God.
3 Ref Every one went back, together they became filthy, There is none doing good -- not even one.
4 Ref Have not workers of iniquity known, Those eating my people have eaten bread, God they have not called.
5 Ref There they feared a fear -- there was no fear, For God hath scattered the bones of him Who is encamping against thee, Thou hast put to shame, For God hath despised them.
6 Ref Who doth give from Zion the salvation of Israel? When God turneth back `to' a captivity of His people, Jacob doth rejoice -- Israel is glad!
American Standard-ASV1901 (ASV)
1 Ref The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity; There is none that doeth good.
2 Ref God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, To see if there were any that did understand, That did seek after God.
3 Ref Every one of them is gone back; they are together become filthy; There is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4 Ref Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, Who eat up my people `as' they eat bread, And call not upon God?
5 Ref There were they in great fear, where no fear was; For God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee: Thou hast put them to shame, because of God hath rejected them.
6 Ref Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God bringeth back the captivity of his people, Then shall Jacob rejoice, `and' Israel shall be glad. Psalm 54 For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. Maschil of David; when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?
