1 For the Chief Musician; set to Mahalath. Maschil of David.
2 God looked down from heaven upon the children of men,
3 Every one of them is gone back; they are together become filthy;
4 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge,
5 There were they in great fear, where no fear was;
6 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion!
