Chapter 53 | |
1 |
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 after God. |
3 |
Every one of them is gone back; they are together 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, And call not 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 of God hath rejected them. |
6 | Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God bringeth back the captivity of his people, Then shall Jacob rejoice, and Israel shall be glad. |
