1898 Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Psalms 53

1 David describeth the corruption of a natural man. 4 He convinceth the wicked by the light of their own conscience. 6 He glorieth in the salvation of God.

 53:1 ¶ To the Overseer.—'On a disease.'—An instruction, by David. A fool said in his heart, 'There is no God.' They have done corruptly, Yea, they have done abominable iniquity, There is none doing good.

 53:2 God from the heavens looked on the sons of men, To see if there be an understanding one, [One] seeking God.

 53:3 Every one went back, together they became filthy, There is none doing good—not even one.

 53:4 Have not workers of iniquity known, Those eating my people have eaten bread, God they have not called.

 53:5 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.

 53:6 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!
