| [2]God from the heavens looked on the sons of men, To see if there be an understanding one, [One] seeking God. |

| [3]Every one went back, together they became filthy, There is none doing good -- not even one. |
[3]Every one is gone back: they are altogether corrupt: there is none that doeth good, no not one. |
| [4]Have not workers of iniquity known, Those eating my people have eaten bread, God they have not called. |
[4]Do not the workers of iniquity know that they eat up my people as they eat bread? They call not upon God. |
| [5]There they feared a fear -- there was no fear, For God hath scattered the bones of him Who is encamping against thee, Thou hast put to shame, For God hath despised them. |
[5]There they were afraid for fear, where no fear was: for God hath scattered the bones of him that besieged thee: thou hast put them to confusion, because God hath cast them off. |
| [6]Who doth give from Zion the salvation of Israel? When God turneth back [to] a captivity of His people, Jacob doth rejoice -- Israel is glad! |
[6]Oh give salvation unto Israel out of Zion: when God turneth the captivity of his people, then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad. |
