Psalm 53:1–3

To the choirmaster: according to jMahalath. A Maskil1 of David.

1  kThe fool says in his heart, l“There is no God.”

They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity;

mthere is none who does good.

2  God looks down from heaven

on the children of man

to see if there are any who understand,2

who seek after God.

3  They have all fallen away;

together they have become corrupt;

nthere is none who does good,

not even one.
