Psalm 53:1-5 The fool says in his heart, "There is no God."

Psalm 53:1-5 To the choirmaster: according to Mahalath. A Maskil of David.

The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity; there is none who does good. God looks down from heaven on the children of man to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God. They have all fallen away; together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one. Have those who work evil no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and do not call upon God? There they are, in great terror, where there is no terror! For God scatters the bones of him who encamps against you; you put them to shame, for God has rejected them.

Great evil has corrupted your creation. We, the work of your hand, are abominable in your sight, filled with iniquity, self-worshiping, seeking our own understanding. There is none righteous, no not one.
