Psalms
53 from Scroll 4Q83 Psalmsa
1 The
fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.”
They
are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity.
There
is no one who does
good.
[..]
3 Every one of them has
gone back.
They
have become filthy together.
There
is no one who does good, no, not one.
4 Have
the workers of iniquity no knowledge,
who
eat up my people as they eat bread,
and don’t call on God?
[..]
6 Oh
that the salvation of Israel would come out
in the day of Zion!
When
God brings back his people from captivity,
then
Jacob shall rejoice,
and
Israel shall be glad.
