The Folly and Wickedness of Men

141 The fool has said in his heart , "There is no God ." They are corrupt , they have committed abominable deeds ; There is no one who does good . 2 The Lord has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men To see if there are any who understand , Who seek after God . 3 They have all turned aside , together they have become corrupt ; There is no one who does good , not even one .

4 Do all the workers of wickedness not know , Who eat up my people as they eat bread , And do not call upon the Lord ? 5 There they are in great dread , For God is with the righteous generation . 6 You would put to shame the counsel of the afflicted , But the Lord is his refuge . 7 Oh e , that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion ! When the Lord restores His captive people , Jacob will rejoice , Israel will be glad .
