To see if there are any who understand, who aseek God.

3 Every one of them has turned aside;
They have together become corrupt;
There is none who does good,
No, not one.

There is none who does good,
No, not one.
4 Have the workers of iniquity ano knowledge,
Who eat up my people as they eat bread,
And do not call upon God?
Who eat up my people as they eat bread,
And do not call upon God?
5 aThere 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.
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.
