The fool says there is no God

(Psalm 53:1-6; Isaiah 59:1-17; Romans 3:9-20)
1
Only foolish people say to themselves, “There is no God!” People who say those things only do corrupt deeds; there is not one of them who does what is good.
2
From heaven Yahweh looks down at everyone; he looks to see if anyone is very wise, wise enough to desire to know him.
3
Everyone turns away from Yahweh. They are depraved and do disgusting, filthy things. No one does what is good.
4
Will those evil people never learn what God will do to punish them? They act violently toward Yahweh’s people and want to consume them like one who eats food consumes it, and they never pray to Yahweh.
5
But some day they will become very terrified because God helps those who act righteously and will punish those who reject him.
6
Those who do evil may prevent helpless people from doing what they plan to do, but Yahweh protects them.
7
Out of Zion Yahweh will come and rescue the Israelite people! He will make his people free again and will bring them back to their home. On that day all of us Israelite people will rejoice, and we, who are also called the descendants of Jacob, will be happy.

The fool says there is no God

(Psalm 53:1-6; Isaiah 59:1-17; Romans 3:9-20)
1
The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt. They have done abominable deeds. There is no one who does good.
2
The LORD looked down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there were any who understood, who sought after God.
3
They have all gone aside. They have together become corrupt. There is no one who does good, no, not one.
4
Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and don’t call on the LORD?
5
There they were in great fear, for God is in the generation of the righteous.
6
You frustrate the plan of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.
7
Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion! When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people, then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
