Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread: they have not called upon God.

Verse 4 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.

Aber sie sind alle abgefallen und allesamt untüchtig; da ist keiner, der Gutes tue, auch nicht einer.
¿No tienen conocimiento todos esos que obran iniquidad? Que comen a mi pueblo como si comiesen pan: A Dios no han invocado.
¿No entienden los que hacen el mal, que devoran a mi pueblo como si comieran pan y no invocan a Dios?
Ceux qui commettent l'iniquité ont-ils perdu le sens? Ils dévorent mon peuple, ils le prennent pour nourriture; Ils n'invoquent point Dieu.
Non hanno essi alcuno intendimento, questi operatori d’iniquità, Che mangiano il mio popolo, come se mangiassero del pane, E non invocano Iddio?
Acaso não têm conhecimento os que praticam a iniqüidade, os quais comem o meu povo como se comessem pão? Eles não invocaram a Deus.
作惡的都沒有知識嗎? 他們吞吃我的百姓如同吃飯一樣, 並不求告上帝。
