| Chapter 53 |
1 |
To the chief Musician upon Mahalath, Maschil, A Psalm of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good. --
|
2 |
God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God. --
|
3 |
Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. --
|
4 |
Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread! they have not called upon God. --
|
5 |
There they were 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 God hath despised them. --
|
6 |
O that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when God bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad. --
