Psalm 53
New King James Version
Folly of the Godless, and the Restoration of Israel(A)
To the Chief Musician. Set to “Mahalath.” A [a]Contemplation of David.
53 The (B)fool has said in his heart,
“There is no God.”
They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity;
(C)There is none who does good.
2 God looks down from heaven upon the children of men,
To see if there are any who understand, who (D)seek God.
3 Every one of them has turned aside;
They have together become corrupt;
There is none who does good,
No, not one.
4 Have the workers of iniquity (E)no knowledge,
Who eat up my people as they eat bread,
And do not call upon God?
5 (F)There they are in great fear
Where no fear was,
For God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you;
You have put them to shame,
Because God has despised them.
6 (G)Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion!
When God brings back [b]the captivity of His people,
Let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad.

Psalm 53
English Standard Version
There Is None Who Does Good
To the choirmaster: according to (A)Mahalath. A Maskil[a] of David.
53 (B)The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”
They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity;
there is none who does good.
2 God looks down from heaven
on the children of man
to see if there are any who understand,[b]
who seek after God.
3 They have all fallen away;
together they have become corrupt;
there is none who does good,
not even one.
4 Have those who work evil no knowledge,
who eat up my people as they eat bread,
and do not call upon God?
5 There they are, in great terror,
(C)where there is no terror!
For God (D)scatters the bones of him who encamps against you;
you put them to shame, for God has rejected them.
6 Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!
When God restores the fortunes of his people,
let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.

Псалтирь 53
New Russian Translation
53 Дирижеру хора. На струнных инструментах. Наставление Давида 2 когда зифиты пришли и сказали Саулу: «У нас скрывается Давид»[a].
3 Боже, спаси меня Своим именем;
оправдай меня Своей силой!
4 Боже, услышь молитву мою;
внемли словам моих уст!
5 Чужие восстали против меня,
беспощадные ищут жизни моей –
те, кто о Боге не думает. Пауза
6 Но, воистину, Бог мне помощник;
Владыка меня укрепляет[b].
7 Он воздаст врагам моим за зло,
погубит их ради Своей верности.
8 Я добровольно принесу Тебе жертву.
Я буду славить имя Твое, Господь,
потому что оно прекрасно.
9 Ведь Ты уберег меня от всех бед,
и я победно смотрел на врагов.
