There Is No One Who Does Good

For the choir director. According to (FA)Mahalath. A (FB)Maskil of David.

1 (C1)The wicked fool says in his heart, "There is no God,"
They act corruptly, and commit abominable injustice;
(C2)There is no one who does good.

2 God looks down from heaven upon the sons of men
To see if there is (C1)anyone who has insight,
Anyone who (C2)seeks after God.

3 (C1)Every one of them has turned back; together they have become (F1)worthless;
There is no one who does good, not even one.

4 Do the workers of iniquity (C1)not know,
Who eat up my people as they eat bread
And do not call upon God?

5 There they were in great dread (C1)where no dread had been;
For God (C2)scattered the bones of (F1)him who encamped against you;
You (C3)put them to shame, because (C4)God had rejected them.

6 Oh, that (C1)the salvation of Israel (F1)would come out of Zion!
When God (F2)restores His captive people,
(F3)May Jacob rejoice, may Israel be glad.
