Psalms 53:4

Have not workers of iniquity known, Those eating my people have eaten bread, God they have not called.

Young's Literal Translation

In The King James Version

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

5There they feared a fear — there was no fear, For God hath scattered the bones of him Who is encamping against thee, Thou hast put to shame, For God hath despised them.
