Verse 2 is found in chapter 53 of Psalms. Psalm 53 returns to the assertion that corrupt humanity lives as though God did not exist. The language of divine investigation portrays God examining human beings and finding widespread deviation. Corruption is manifested in the inability to do good and in exploitation of God’s people. The final hope does not come from human ability, but from the salvation God will bring from Zion.

Die Toren sprechen in ihrem Herzen: Es ist kein Gott. Sie taugen nichts und sind ein Greuel geworden in ihrem bösen Wesen; das ist keiner, der Gutes tut.

Dios mira desde los cielos a los seres humanos para ver si hay alguno que entienda, alguno que busque a Dios.
Dieu, du haut des cieux, regarde les fils de l'homme, Pour voir s'il y a quelqu'un qui soit intelligent, Qui cherche Dieu.
Iddio ha riguardato dal cielo sopra i figliuoli degli uomini. Per vedere se vi fosse alcuno che avesse intelletto, Che cercasse Iddio.

上帝從天上垂看世人, 要看有明白的沒有, 有尋求上帝的沒有。
