Opening the chapter…
TO THE OVERSEER. BY DAVID. A fool has said in his heart, “There is no God”; They have done corruptly, || They have done abominable actions, || There is not a doer of good.
YHWH has looked from the heavens on the sons of men, || To see if there is a wise one—seeking God.
The whole have turned aside, || Together they have been filthy: There is not a doer of good, not even one.
Have all working iniquity not known? Those consuming my people have eaten bread, || They have not called YHWH.
They have feared a fear there, || For God [is] in the generation of the righteous.
You cause the counsel of the poor to stink, || Because YHWH [is] his refuge.
“Who gives the salvation of Israel from Zion?” When YHWH turns back || [To] a captivity of His people, || Jacob rejoices—Israel is glad!
