52:1 (Unto the end, for Maeleth, understandings to David) The fool said in his heart: There is no God.
52:2 They are corrupted, and become abominable in iniquities: there is none that doth good.
52:3 God looked down from heaven on the children of men: to see if there were any that did understand, or did seek God.
52:4 All have gone aside, they are become unprofitable together, there is none that doth good, no not one.
52:5 Shall not all the workers of iniquity know, who eat up my people as they eat bread?
52:6 They have not called upon God: there have they trembled for fear, where there was no fear. For God hath scattered the bones of them that please men: they have been confounded, because God hath despised them.
52:7 Who will give out of Sion the salvation of Israel? when God shall bring back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
