Psalm 53:1-4 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

¹The fool says in his heart,

“There is no God.”

They are corrupt; their ways are vile.

There is no one who does good.

²God looks down from heaven

upon the sons of men

to see if any understand,

if any seek God.

³All have turned away,

they have together become corrupt;

there is no one who does good,

not even one.

⁴Will the workers of iniquity never learn?

They devour my people like bread;

they refuse to call upon God.

— Psalm 53:1-4
