Psalmes 53

P S A L. LIII.

1 Dauid describeth the corruption of a naturall man. 4 He conuinceth the wicked by the light of their owne conscience. 6 Hee glorieth in the saluation of God.

¶ [ref][ref]To the chiefe musician vpon Mahalath, Maschil, A Psalme of Dauid.

LIII ¶ The foole hath sayde in his heart, There is no god; Corrupt are they, and haue done abhominable iniquitie; there is none that doth good. 2 God looked downe from heauen vpon the children of men, to see if there were any that did vnderstand, that did seeke God. 3 Euery one of them is gone backe, they are altogether become filthy: there is none that doth good, no not one. 4 Haue the workers of iniquitie no knowledge? who eate vp my people, as they eate bread; they haue not called vpon God. 5 [fn]There were they in great feare, where no feare was: for God hath scattered the bones of him that incampeth against thee, thou hast put them to shame, because God hath despised them. 6 [fn]O that the saluation of Israel were come out of Sion! when God bringeth backe the captiuitie of his people, Iaakob shall reioyce, and Israel shall be glad.
