The Fool Says, There Is No God

(Psa 53:1–6 )

to see if there are any who understand,[fn]
who seek after God.

there is none who does good,
not even one.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 14:4 - Have they no knowledge, all the evildoers
who eat up my people as they eat bread
and do not call upon the LORD?
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 14:5 - There they are in great terror,
for God is with the generation of the righteous.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 14:6 - You would shame the plans of the poor,
but[fn] the LORD is his refuge.

When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people,
let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.
