14
For the Chief Musician. By David [Beloved].
Context: Possible, David [Beloved] meditates on Genesis 6:5-6. (Gen 6:5-6)
1 The fool has said in his heart, “There is no Elohim ·Deity, Judge·.”
They are corrupt.
They have done abominable deeds.
There is no one who does good.
2 Adonai looked down from heaven on the children of men,
to see if there were any who understood,
who sought after God.
3 All have gone aside.
They have together become corrupt.
There is no one who does good, no, not one. *. (1-3) Quoted in Rom 3:10-12
4 Have all the workers of vain striving of iniquity no knowledge,
who eat up my people as they eat bread,
and don’t call on Adonai?
5 There they were in great fear,
for God is in the generation of the upright.
6 You frustrate the plan of the poor,
because Adonai is his refuge.
7 Oh that the yishu'ah ·salvation· of Israel [God prevails] would come out of Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking]!
When Adonai restores the fortunes of his people,
then Jacob [Supplanter] shall rejoice, and Israel [God prevails] shall be glad.
