Psalms 53 Geneva Bible 1599

From Textus Receptus

1 To him that excelleth on Mahalath. A Psalme of David to give instruction. The foole hath saide in his heart, There is no God. they haue corrupted and done abominable wickednes: there is none that doeth good. 2 God looked downe from heauen vpon the children of men, to see if there were any that would vnderstand, and seeke God. 3 Euery one is gone backe: they are altogether corrupt: there is none that doth good, no not one. 4 Doe not the workers of iniquitie knowe that they eate vp my people as they eate bread? they call not vpon God. 5 There they were afraide for feare, where no feare was: for God hath scattered the bones of him that besieged thee: thou hast put them to confusion, because God hath cast them off. 6 Oh giue saluation vnto Israel out of Zion: when God turneth the captiuitie of his people, then Iaakob shall reioyce, and Israel shalbe glad.
