NEW JERUSALEMKING JAMES BIBLE
1 [For the choirmaster Of David] The fool has said in his heart, 'There is no God.' Their deeds arecorrupt and vile, not one of them does right.1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
2 Yahweh looks down from heaven at the children of Adam. To see if a single one is wise, a single oneseeks God.2 The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.
3 Al have turned away, all alike turned sour, not one of them does right, not a single one.3 They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4 Are they not aware, all these evil-doers? They are devouring my people, this is the bread they eat, andthey never call to Yahweh.4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.
5 They wil be gripped with fear, where there is no need for fear, for God takes the side of the upright;5 There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.
6 you may mock the plans of the poor, but Yahweh is their refuge.6 Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.
7 Who wil bring from Zion salvation for Israel? When Yahweh brings his people home, what joy forJacob, what happiness for Israel!7 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
