Psalm 53:4-6
Lexham English Bible
4 Do not evildoers know,
they who eat my people as though they were eating bread?
They do not call on God.
5 There they are very fearful[a]
where no fear had been,
because God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you.
You have put them to shame, because God has rejected them.
6 Oh, that from Zion[b] would come salvation for Israel!
When God returns the fortunes[c] of his people,
let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.

4 Do all these evildoers know nothing?
They devour my people as though eating bread;
they never call on God.

where there was nothing to dread.(A)

you put them to shame,(D) for God despised them.(E)
6 Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!
When God restores his people,
let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!
