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.

Reina Valera Contemporánea
Insensatez y maldad humana(A)
Al músico principal. Sobre Majalat. Masquil de David.
53 Dentro de sí dicen los necios:
«Dios no existe.»
Corrompidos están. Sus hechos son repugnantes.
No hay nadie que haga el bien.
2 Desde el cielo, Dios observa a la humanidad
para ver si hay alguien con sabiduría
que busque a Dios.
3 Pero todos se han desviado;
todos a una se han corrompido.
No hay nadie que haga el bien;
¡ni siquiera hay uno solo!(B)
4 ¿Acaso no piensan esos malhechores,
que devoran a mi pueblo como si fuera pan,
y jamás invocan a Dios?
5 Ellos se estremecerán de miedo
allí, donde no hay nada que temer.
Dios esparcirá los huesos de los que te asedian;
Dios los desechará y los dejará en vergüenza.
6 ¡Que venga de Sión la salvación de Israel!
Cuando Dios haga volver a su pueblo cautivo,
¡se alegrará Jacob, se regocijará Israel!

Psalm 53[a](A)
For the director of music. According to mahalath.[b] A maskil[c] of David.
1 The fool(B) says in his heart,
    “There is no God.”(C)
They are corrupt, and their ways are vile;
    there is no one who does good.
2 God looks down from heaven(D)
    on all mankind
to see if there are any who understand,(E)
    any who seek God.(F)
3 Everyone has turned away, all have become corrupt;
    there is no one who does good,
    not even one.(G)
4 Do all these evildoers know nothing?
They devour my people as though eating bread;
    they never call on God.
5 But there they are, overwhelmed with dread,
    where there was nothing to dread.(H)
God scattered the bones(I) of those who attacked you;(J)
    you put them to shame,(K) for God despised them.(L)
6 Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!
    When God restores his people,
    let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!

Psalm 53
King James Version
53 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.
2 God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
3 Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread: they have not called upon God.
5 There were they in great fear, where no fear was: for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee: thou hast put them to shame, because God hath despised them.
6 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
