RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Al Músico principal: Salmo de David. DIJO el necio en su corazón: No hay Dios. Corrompiéronse, hicieron obras abominables; no hay quien haga bien.
1 For the Chief Musician. By David. The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt. They have done abominable deeds. There is no one who does good.
2 Jehová miró desde los cielos sobre los hijos de los hombres, por ver si había algún entendido, que buscara á Dios.
2 Yahweh looked down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there were any who understood, who sought after God.
3 Todos declinaron, juntamente se han corrompido: no hay quien haga bien, no hay ni siquiera uno.
3 They have all gone aside. They have together become corrupt. There is no one who does good, no, not one.
4 ¿No tendrán conocimiento todos los que obran iniquidad, que devoran á mi pueblo [como] si pan comiesen, y á Jehová no invocaron?
4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and don’t call on Yahweh?
5 Allí temblaron de espanto; porque Dios está con la nación de los justos.
5 There they were in great fear, for God is in the generation of the righteous.
6 El consejo del pobre habéis escarnecido, por cuanto Jehová es su esperanza.
6 You frustrate the plan of the poor, because Yahweh is his refuge.
7 ¡Quién diese de Sión la salud de Israel! En tornando Jehová la cautividad de su pueblo, se gozará Jacob, y alegraráse Israel.
7 Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion! When Yahweh restores the fortunes of his people, then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

    for the godly man is perished out of the earth, and there is none that doeth right among men: and again, They are all gone out of the way, they are together became unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one: and again, Cursing and stealing, and adultery, and murder are poured out upon the land.

    … since the wickedness of the Evil One has prevailed so mightily against man's nature as even to drive some into denying the existence of God, that most foolish and woe-fulest pit of destruction (whose folly David, revealer of the Divine meaning, exposed when he said, The fool said in his heart, There is no God), so the disciples of …
