1 T he fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are sinful and have done bad things. There is no one who does good.

Al Músico principal: sobre Mahalath: Masquil de David. DIJO el necio en su corazón: No hay Dios. Corrompiéronse é hicieron abominable maldad: No hay quien haga bien.

2 G od has looked down from heaven at the children of men to see if there is anyone who understands and looks for God.

Dios desde los cielos miró sobre los hijos de los hombres, Por ver si hay algún entendido Que busque á Dios.

3 T hey have all turned back. They have all turned to sin. There is no one who does good, not even one.

Cada uno se había vuelto atrás; todos se habían corrompido: No hay quien haga bien, no hay ni aun uno.

4 H ave those who do wrong no understanding? They eat up My people like they eat bread. They have not called upon God.

¿No tienen conocimiento todos esos que obran iniquidad? Que comen á mi pueblo como si comiesen pan: A Dios no han invocado.

5 T here they were, in much fear, where there was nothing to be afraid of. For God has spread out the bones of those who come against you. You put them to shame, because God has turned away from them.

Allí se sobresaltaron de pavor donde no había miedo: Porque Dios ha esparcido los huesos del que asentó campo contra ti: Los avergonzaste, porque Dios los desechó.

6 O , that the saving of Israel would come out of Zion! Jacob will be full of joy and Israel will be glad when God returns His people to their land.

Oh quién diese de Sión saludes á Israel! En volviendo Dios la cautividad de su pueblo, Gozarse ha Jacob, y alegraráse Israel.
