Psalms:53-54
Seeker Overlay ON
*
The fool hath said in his heart ,
There is no God .
Corrupt are they ,
and have done abominable iniquity :
there is none that doeth good .
*
God looked down from heaven upon the children of men ,
to see if there were any that did understand ,
that did seek God .
*
Every one of them is gone back :
they are altogether become filthy ;
there is none that doeth good ,
no ,
not one .
*
Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge ?
who eat up my people as they eat bread :
they have not called upon God .
*
There were they in great fear ,
where no fear was :
for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee :
thou hast put them to shame ,
because God hath despised them .
*
Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion !
When God bringeth back the captivity of his people ,
Jacob shall rejoice ,
and Israel shall be glad .
*
Save me ,
O God ,
by thy name ,
and judge me by thy strength .
*
Hear my prayer ,
O God ;
give ear to the words of my mouth .
*
For strangers are risen up against me ,
and oppressors seek after my soul :
they have not set God before them .
Selah .
*
Behold ,
God is mine helper :
the Lord is with them that uphold my soul .
*
He shall reward evil unto mine enemies :
cut them off in thy truth .
*
I will freely sacrifice unto thee :
I will praise thy name ,
O LORD ;
for it is good .
*
For he hath delivered me out of all trouble :
and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies .
*
Give ear to my prayer ,
O God ;
and hide not thyself from my supplication .
