1A Psalm of David. O Lord, who shall sojourn in thy tabernacle? and who shall dwell in thy holy mountain?
1The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
2He that walks blameless, and works righteousness, who speaks truth in his heart.
2The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.
3Who has not spoken craftily with his tongue, neither has done evil to his neighbour, nor taken up a reproach against them that dwelt nearest to him.
3They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4In his sight an evil-worker is set at nought, but he honours them that fear the Lord. He swears to his neighbour, and disappoints [him] not .
4Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the Lord.
5He has not lent his money on usury, and has not received bribes against the innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.
5There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.
